november reading wrap-up⋆˖ ࣪⭑

not the three highest this month all being nonfics? well at least they're all really great.

I think out of all three the one that left the deepest impression might be The Impossible City: A Hong Kong Memoir🏙️🌿🇭🇰
i haven't been active here at all since last year I think? so these are kinda like my offerings to make up for the past four months
top four books I've read so far in 2024☀️

That's a wrap on Bora Chung's MIDNIGHT TIMETABLE in our fifth book collaboration, this time for Algonquin in the US and Dialogue in the UK, on a novel narrated by a night shift worker at a research institute for haunted objects, coming in late 2025.

finished this and the focus on the romance faded away in the second half + the ending wasn't that satisfactory but the first 16-20 eps? a definite must-watch.
i lied i started a new cdrama. she got isekai'd into a fantasy story where she is the evil female secondary character and has to make him, the evil male secondary character, fall for her. oh and he's a tsundere

with all the recent developments in Syria, I'm reminded again of this book I read earlier this year.

it's a nonfic about a journalist who interviewed & befriended a band of rebels trapped in Daraya, a syrian town that was under siege. this book left an impression on me and I v much recommend it 💙📚

thoughts & opinions:
this short story collection is filled with wild beauties even amidst all the sufferings that I'm sure came directly from the author's own memories as an ex-communist guerrilla who spent ~10 years living in the rainforest.
