Books 22 and not 22 of 2022
I’ve just finished Christy Anne Jones’s ebook A Year In Tokyo, which is a memoir of the 13 months she and her boyfriend lived in the city, during their (long distance) postgraduate studies and also with her working as an English teacher. Christy is a books/reading YouTuber in Australia who I enjoy watching. And she adored her time in Tokyo. The book is a combined tourist guide and memoir, well written, and beautifully illustrated. The PDF ebook is available direct from her website.
The other book I should have finished but have totally given up on is the Doctor Who I Am A Master anthology. After battling through the first 3 of 6 stories - 2 of which I found virtually unreadable - I found myself unable to tackle story 4, thinking life’s too short, and shelved the book in Goodreads as unread. I’m not the only reader to have found it very unsatisfying.
