I think this was my favourite edition of your newsletters so far! My foray into reading began with Misha magazine )from Russia), folk tales and other lavishly illustrated glossy hardcover children's books from Raduga Publishers, Moscow. This was back in the early 80s in Bombay, when access to these books and magazines was through ports - Russia to Bombay via Bangladesh and West Bengal! I went on to devour the usual suspects - Noddy, The Far away Tree, Hardy Boys, Nancy Drew, Fantastic Five... And then to a brief love affair with Mills & Boons, before the world of science fiction and fantasy completely consumed me with the likes of Isaac Asimov, Terry Pratchett, Orson Scott Card, Neil Gaiman, Ray Bradbury, Margaret Atwood. I loved some of your book recommendations, have read a couple of these. Wouldn't it be amazing to start your own book club?
Thank you so much for your kind comment Nilofar! Your reading journey sounds fascinating and very diverse
I'd love to create a book club for readers of the love club at some point in the future - follow us on Instagram (@loveclub.x) as we will most likely post details/host it on there! All the best, Mohsina x
