For Book Club this month we read FAIL SAFE by Eugene Burdick and Harvey Wheeler. I loved this so much and once I got close to the end, I stayed up for hours reading so I could finish it ๐ฅ
I originally picked this because Goodreads recommended it and the reviews seemed positive, so why not? I had no idea how much I'd enjoy this - incredibly anxiety-inducing, very technical but understandable, terrifying and thrilling! Wow! I know it's been made into at least 2 films (I think) but I've never seen them - which was great because this was totally new to me.
If you have any interest in some Cold-War-anxiety, please don't read any more about it and give it a try yourself! ๐ฉ๏ธ
For March, we'll be reading Butter by Asako Yuzuki ๐ฏ๐ต I know nothing about this other than it's been super popular and it's Japanese! Fun! If you choose to read it/listen to it, I hope you enjoy!
My goal is to read more - so I started Book Club! Each month, Iโll post what Iโm reading and you are welcome to join in ๐ Whether you want to read or listen, it's totally up to you! At the end of the month, weโll share our thoughts on the book (no spoilers in case you're still reading/listening).
You can try and read each book, or pick and choose month-to-month, or not! Itโs totally up to you.
Happy reading!
