      **A Confederacy of Dunces, by John Kennedy Toole**

      Finished. I had fun after a slow start, but Ignatius’ personality seemed all over the place … it turns out that the edition I had was censored for obscenity, which might have limited exposure, hence the incongruence.

      **Mornings in Jenin, by Susan Abulhawa**

      Slowly continued, almost finished (12% left).

      **Still Alive: Notes from Australia’s Immigration Detention System, by Safdar Ahmed**

      Started. Recommendation from a discussion about Maus by Art Spiegelman.

      Finished: Jade City by Fonda Lee. 4/5 nice pace, good char development and intriguing plot

      Started : Shadow of a dead god by Patrick Samphire.

      Halfway through, it’s allright so far. Reminds me a lot of Dresden Files though.
