Lizzie - Classic Book Club

Welcome to Classic Book Club

Hello! I am Lizzie, and my main joy in life is reading books and thinking about books! I have so many thoughts about each book I read so wanted a place to record these thoughts, and a place where others who are reading the same book as me can share their thoughts about it too. I’ve tried to write my (often lengthy!) reviews of books so it feels like I am chatting with you as we read the book together, comparing thoughts at the end of a chapter and ideas of where the plot and characters may end up, wondering why the author has written a character or scene in a particular way and what they may be subtly trying to tell us about that character or scene. So enjoy reading along with me, and please get in touch, I’d love to be able to discover more about a favourite book from your thoughts on it.

The Shadow of the Wind by Carlos Ruiz Zafon

Featured Book Review

Carlos Ruiz Zafon
The Shadow of the Wind

I am attracted to this book just from the blurb on the back mentioning the Cemetery of Forgotten Books and its description of ‘a labyrinthine library of obscure and forgotten titles’, which sounds such an idyllic place and somewhere I’m sure I’d want to spend time, and which I imagine will end up as one of my happy places that I picture in my mind when I want to fall asleep! But it sounds like things get mysterious regarding a book that a boy chooses from there, very intriguing! Grab your copy and let’s read it together! Read the full review
