Mon, 15:02: The Grass is Singing, by Doris Lessing A short depressing book about a disastrous marriage between two white colonists in the future Zimbabwe; vivid psychological portraits, though rather plays into racist stereotypes. #nwbooks https://t.co/RQpUy2SMfq https://t.co/dMjue7oWjw https://t.co/c1gHv6FskI
Mon, 16:02: Ms. Marvel Vol 2: Generation Why, by G. Willow Wilson I had reasonably high hopes for this which weren't quite realised.
