Goodreads Monday: 29/4/2024

Goodreads Monday is now hosted by Budget Tales Book Club. All you have to do is show off a book from your TBR that you’re looking forward to reading.

Hello!

I hope everyone has had a good start to the week so far. My day has been jam packed with very little reading time but I have managed a chapter of The Fires of Heaven. I really want to make a push with my Wheel of Time series challenge as I feel like I am falling behind and in danger of neglecting it.

My chosen book to feature this week is another relatively recent purchase but one I hope to read soon. I might even have it as a holiday read.

When Kris Kelvin arrives at the planet Solaris to study the ocean that covers its surface he is forced to confront a painful, hitherto unconscious memory embodied in the physical likeness of a long-dead lover. Others suffer from the same affliction and speculation rises among scientists that the Solaris ocean may be a massive brain that creates incarnate memories, but its purpose in doing so remains a mystery . . .

Solaris raises a question that has been at the heart of human experience and literature for centuries: can we truly understand the universe around us without first understanding what lies within?

Happy Reading
