You know, that's the book you're aiming for.

The Bookshelf
On Ian McEwan's Machines Like Me and Joanne Harris's The Strawberry Thief, and the bookshelves of Caro Llewellyn and Dervla McTiernan

Yes.

On Ian McEwan's Machines Like Me and Joanne Harris's The Strawberry Thief, and the bookshelves of Caro Llewellyn and Dervla McTiernan

That's truly satisfying.

The Bookshelf
On Ian McEwan's Machines Like Me and Joanne Harris's The Strawberry Thief, and the bookshelves of Caro Llewellyn and Dervla McTiernan

Their area of weakness.

The Bookshelf
On Ian McEwan's Machines Like Me and Joanne Harris's The Strawberry Thief, and the bookshelves of Caro Llewellyn and Dervla McTiernan

Yeah.

The Bookshelf
On Ian McEwan's Machines Like Me and Joanne Harris's The Strawberry Thief, and the bookshelves of Caro Llewellyn and Dervla McTiernan

The Bookshelf
On Ian McEwan's Machines Like Me and Joanne Harris's The Strawberry Thief, and the bookshelves of Caro Llewellyn and Dervla McTiernan

All right, so Tana French.

The Bookshelf
On Ian McEwan's Machines Like Me and Joanne Harris's The Strawberry Thief, and the bookshelves of Caro Llewellyn and Dervla McTiernan

Because it's one of those books that reminds you that, you know, these categories that we're all put into are kind of silly.

The Bookshelf
On Ian McEwan's Machines Like Me and Joanne Harris's The Strawberry Thief, and the bookshelves of Caro Llewellyn and Dervla McTiernan

You know, they're just a bit silly.

The Bookshelf
On Ian McEwan's Machines Like Me and Joanne Harris's The Strawberry Thief, and the bookshelves of Caro Llewellyn and Dervla McTiernan
