The Little Sleep Ladies had a wonderful surprise while they were in Aruba, and we had books find us!

Riss came across The Girl in Cabin 10 by Ruth Ware while Aliza found The Van Apfel Girls Are Gone by Felicity McLean.

Mit mir am Mikrofon die Kritikerin Lore Kleinert und der Buchhändler Axel Stiehler. Auch heute wieder stellen wir am Ende drei persönliche Empfehlungen vor. Diesmal Afonso Reis Cabral "Aber wir lieben dich", Ayelet Gundar-Goshen "Wo der Wolf lauert" und Friedrich Ani "Letzte Ehre". Zuerst jedoch führt uns Felicity McLean und ihr Kriminalroman „Cordie“ in der Übersetzung von Kathrin Bielfeldt nach Australien. Die Nachbarstöchter Cordelia, Ruth und Hanna sind vor zwanzig Jahren verschwunden. Die Van-Apfel-Girls waren Geschwister von vierzehn, dreizehn und sieben Jahren. Ihr Verschwinden hinterlässt nicht nur tiefe Spuren im Leben der Ich-Erzählerin Tikka. Verschwundene Kinder sind ein beliebter Plot in der Kriminalliteratur, was mich zu der Frage führt, ertragen wir Leser es überhaupt, wenn etwas nicht aufgeklärt und unseren Vermutungen überlassen wird?

Durée : 1:53 - Lucienne Chapé vous emmène en Australie grâce à la littérature, avec le roman de Felicity McLean, Les soeurs Van Apfel ont disparu (Presses de la Cité).

We begin with a memoir, reviewed by Vanessa Levenstein, titled Undeniable – Memoirs of a covert war, written by Phillippa Garson. It's her riveting account of working as a journalist during the early 1990s in South Africa. Melvyn Minnaar found the world of art worth a detailed visit in William Feaver's The Lives of Lucien Freud: Youth 1922-1968, and Leanne Voysey regales us with her thoughts on Felicity McLean's debut novel, The van Apfel Girls are Gone. Beverley Roos-Muller remains loyal to one of her favourite writers, Martin Cruz Smith and gives us her take on The Siberian Dilemma, and Philp Todres brings rhinos centre stage with Remembering Rhinos, part of the Remembering Wildlife series of four books by Margot Ragget. Seasoned ornithologist Rob Little recommends Rupert Watson's Peacocks & Picathartes, Reflections on Africa's birdlife, for those who'd like to stay in touch with the wonders of our truly rich African bird diversity, and Beryl Eichenberger spoke to Hedi Lampert, author of The Trouble with my Aunt, uncovering family secrets discovered during a real life journey with Fragile X syndrome. Finishing our monthly offering, Lesley Beake encourages us to look where the books for the very young are found for something to delight, and suggests four of author and illustrator Chris Houghton's very best.

Jenn and Kelly discuss camping reads, transhumanist SF, healthy cookbooks, and more in this week’s episode of Get Booked.

Hello Ladies, I have been an avid listener and a growing book devour-er since starting to listen to all sorts of awesome bookish podcasts such as yourselves. This past weekend I DEVOURED Kitchen Counter Cooking School, am anxiously awaiting Garlic and Sapphires and since then have fallen down the proverbial rabbit hole of food, diet and health. I have recently found out that I am both Gluten and Lactose Intolerant and after watching Rotten and Veducated online I now want to go Vegan – OMG have you watched these?!? I have downloaded, but have yet to start reading The Skeptical Vegan, but are there any other books that you (or Miss Liberty) can recommend that would help me on my merry way? Hungry for Advice, -Sonia AND Hello, I love your podcast. Thank you for doing it! I am wanting to eat healthier. I am interested in cookbooks that focus on healthy meals but on a budget. I am not opposed to cookbooks that feature vegetarian or vegan meals but don’t want something that focuses on “fad diets”. Thank you! -Maggie 2. Hello – I’m a public librarian serving our local middle school. I have a 7th grade teacher looking for read-a-likes to S.E. Hinton’s THE OUTSIDERS. They do not want other S.E. Hinton titles, yet still want titles that are age-appropriate for a 7th grade public school. The titles I find tend to be more appropriate for high school, and not middle grade (for example, David Arnold’s KIDS OF APPETITE, which is not an option for classroom use due to language). Any thoughts or assistance appreciated. Thank you -David 3. Amanda & Jenn – I love your show and have found many great recs for my TBR and titles for my classroom library. I’m a ninth grade English teacher and my students do independent reading throughout the year. It is amazing to see their diverse interests, but one common love by many this past year has been The Martian by Andy Weir. I never know what to suggest to them next after this book and many times they have book hangovers after this read. Help me help them find a read alike for this novel! Thank you. -Sarah 4. Hi ladies! I’ve asked questions in the show before and was super happy with the recs (especially Her Body and Other Parties, amazing!) so thank you so much and also I’m back for more. I’ve been in a real non fiction kick lately and would love some recommendations for non fiction, especially historical, that reads like a novel/is very readable. In addition to that I would really prefer to read something in translation or about other countries since I’m not american or particularly interested in US history. Bonus points for greek, french, or south american history/historical figures, but not essential. -Celina 5. Hi! Love your podcast! I’m a PhD student so I spend all my life reading heavy academic texts, and it means my pleasure reading is suffering, I’m reading lots of chick lit because it’s so predictable it doesn’t matter that I’m exhausted! I’m after some recommendations of things that are easy to read but a bit more exciting. When I do have the energy I love thriller/crime books and YA (especially queer fiction). Not so keen on fantasy/sci fi. Fave authors are probably Becky Abertalli and Rachel Abbott -Caroline 6. I’m looking for book recommendations for an upcoming camping trip. It will be just me and my husband relaxing in the woods, hiking etc. Last year I read Undaunted Courage and really loved reading about their journey while I had a much more modern adventure. Doesn’t necessarily have to be nonfiction but does have to be paperback (easy to carry). Thanks! -Reid 7. Hello! I’ve been growing more interested in reading transhuman science fiction. Specifically books that feature mind hacking, mind uploading, or resleeving into artificial bodies. Some similar books I’ve read are Cory Doctorow’s Down and Out in the Magic Kingdom, and Alissa Nutting’s Made for Love. It would be a bonus if the recommendations included either romance or horror, and double bonus if they feature LBGTQ characters and issues! -Kelly Books Discussed Frugal Vegan by Katie Koteen and Kate Kasbee The Love & Lemons Cookbook by Jeanine Donofrio Monster by Walter Dean Myers All American Boys by Jason Reynolds and Brendan Kiely Life As We Knew It by Susan Beth Pfeffer Packing for Mars by Mary Roach The Lost City of Z by David Grann The Black Count by Tom Reiss The Love and Lies of Rukhsana Ali by Sabina Khan A Line in the Dark by Malinda Lo Braiding Sweetgrass by Robin Wall Kimmerer The River of Doubt by Candice Millard Feed by MT Anderson Upgraded, edited by Neil Clarke
