The Beijing Book Club so far have covered:

The Last House on Needless Street by Catriona Ward
Eileen by Ottessa Moshfegh
Piranesi by Susanna Clarke
A Head Full of Ghosts by Paul Tremblay

When it cycles back to me, I'm gonna pick Negative Space by BR Yeager.

我真希望我们有更多关于中国的英语内容,既不是揭露谣言的,也不是单调的旅行视频。中国的《Trash Taste》在哪里?
