Books I& #39;ve read (starting from August 2020)

& #39;𝘐 care for myself. The more solitary, the more friendless, the more unsustained I am, the more I will respect myself.& #39;

01 ー
Jane Eyre by Charlotte Brontë
★★★★★ (05 August 2020)

& #39;There’s always been something inside her that men have wanted to dominate, and their desire for domination can look so much like attraction, even love.& #39;

02 ー
Normal People by Sally Rooney
★★★☆☆ (07 August 2020)

& #39;If we are strong enough in our souls we can rip away the veil and look that naked, terrible beauty right in the face; let God consume us, devour us, unstring our bones. Then spit us out reborn.& #39;

03 ー
The Secret History by Donna Tartt
★★★★★ (09 August 2020)

& #39;It is amazing how complete is the delusion that beauty is goodness.& #39;

04 ー
The Kreutzer Sonata by Leo Tolstoy
★★★★☆ (10 August 2020)

& #39;And there lies the horror: the past we remember is devoid of time. Impossible to reexperience a love the way we reread a book or resee a film.& #39;

05 ー
Ignorance by Milan Kundera
★★★★☆ (11 August 2020)

& #39;Even already, I thought, time is at work; time is ticking her away; time is destroying her, killing all there was between us.& #39;

06 ー
Bodily Secrets by William Trevor
★★★★★ (15 August 2020)

& #39;Little events, ordinary things, smashed and reconstituted. Suddenly, they become the bleached bones of a story.& #39;

07 ー
The God of Small Things by Arundhati Roy
★★★★★ (18 August 2020)

& #39;Perhaps ... music doesn& #39;t change us that much, nor does great art change us. Instead, it reminds us of who, despite all our claims or denials, we& #39;ve always known we were and are destined to remain.& #39;

08 ー
Find Me by André Aciman
★★☆☆☆ (21 August 2020)

& #39;I know you despise me; allow me to say, it is because you do not understand me.& #39;

09 ー
North and South by Elizabeth Gaskell
★★★☆☆ (06 September 2020)
