Two five star books in a month is great! It looks like Nothomb might be a new favorite author for you. I have a feeling I will feel the same way as you about I Have Never Known Men, i don’t think it can possibly live up to the hype for me.
I think you’re right about her being a favorite author! Fingers crosse I Who Have Never Known Men is a great fit for you. I can see why people love it.
I truly had such a hard time even remembering it for the wrap up sadly. Liked it while it lasted though. I’ll be interest to hear the plot of the next thing she writes.
I have heard great things about both Annie Bot and I Who Have Never Known Men....I need to get my hands on those!
Both great! I think you’ll love Annie Bot based on some of the other books you’ve loved this year.

Same! It's on my tbr because I can't *not* read it, but I'm basically waiting to be disappointed after all the hype.

always tricky working with the hype!
First Blood sounds incredibly interesting but it doesn't have an audiobook yet. 😢
Oh no, I hate when that happens! Europa only does audiobook productions for a few of their books every year sadly.
I just read Dogs of Summer too, I think you nailed it--really interesting vibes but the plot was forgettable.
