The Devil of Nanking by Mo Hayder. I started reading it a couple of weeks ago but stoppped. I don't know why... But I'm going to start reading it again. It's about (from Amazon): "The solitary Englishwoman Grey comes to Japan looking for a rare piece of footage that is said to document a particularly monstrous episode of the 1937 Nanking Massacre. Her quest will take her to a reclusive scholar and a wheelchair-bound gangster who clings to life with the aid of a mysterious elixir, and to a handsome American whose interest in Grey may be more sinister than romantic. The result is a work of spine-chilling suspense, masterful historical detail, and otherworldly beauty."
My friend read it and she said it was good so I thought I'll give it a try.
I'm reading The Persian Boy by Mary Renault
it's about the last 7 years of Alexander the Great's life told through the POV of his eunuch lover Bagoas
it's pretty good so far
it's nice to finally have time to read now that school's out
Ooh, sounds interesting. I like books that tells a story/event/etc. from another point of view. There's a book called
Ophelia that tells the Hamlet play from her point of view. And there's
The Other Boleyn Girl. I haven't read any of these yet... Anyone have any more recommendations for books like these?
I've just started reading
