Open, An Autobiography, Andre Agassi

 

Not a fan of tennis, but am a fan of biographies.

Biggest surprise, Andre Agassi does not lik tennis!

I really liked how his none denominational pastor described God to him. He didn't have a good relationship with his dad, and the pastor said that God is totally the opposite of his dad. 

Was married to Brooke Shields and later to Stephi Graf.

4/5

Kindle Audiobook: Hidden in Snow, Viveca Sten

 

This is the first in the series. I enjoy Scandinavian writing. Personally would have preferred a narrator with Scandinavian accent. 

Tricky to get to grips and remember all the names. Will read second book and see how it goes.

3/5

News24 Audiobook: Trace, Ryan Blumenthal

 

Libby Boek: Dwelm, Rudie van Rensburg

 

Another Kassie Kasselman investigation. Again many names, many twists and turns. I thought I was reading them in order, but realised I had skipped a few when I was confused about him marrying Amalia that I had never heard of.

4/5

Libby Audiobook: You Can't Take It With You, Messie Condo

 

I know I need to declutter. So this was a bit of motivation and procrastination to get there. 

It's ok. Narrator a bit condescending. Nothing really new, but good reminder to get decluttering.

3/5

Libby Audiobook: May all Your Skies Be Blue, Fiona Scarlett

 

Beautiful, but so sad.

The story of four Irish friends. Each chapter alternates between their younger years and now.

5/5

Kindle Audiobook: A River in Darkness, Masaji Ishikawa

So interesting to learn more about North Korea / Japan / China relationships.

Hectic memoir of Masaji Ishikawa. He and his family relocated from Japan to North Korea under false pretences in the 50/60's. The struggles that they went through is horrendous. Very sad.

4/5
