“By the smallest of one’s actions, one can restore some sense of order to the world.” 🎩 Think ‘Russian novel’ and your mind will inevitably conjure up images of snow-clad roads and country estates, fur coats, and trains. But Amor Towles’ Russian novel takes place entirely inside a luxury hotel in Moscow. The year is 1922. Count Alexander Rostov, a former aristocrat, a Former Person, has been sentenced to house arrest by a Bolshevik Tribunal. Stripped of his title, his liberty, and most of his possessions, the Count must spend the rest of his life behind the doors of the Hotel Metropol, as Russia undergoes “decades of tumultuous upheaval.” 🎩 Despite such bleak circumstances, the tone of the novel is decidedly light. For the Count, the hotel must contain the world, and for thirty years, wonder abounds at every familiar turn. The hotel opens up, room by room, visitor by visitor, decade after decade; waiters, chefs, seamstresses, piano players, bartenders, actresses, journalists, officers and spies, all find themselves in the hotel at one point or another, until the novel begins to weave its threads together and comes to a heart rendering, breathless end. 🎩 The novel mostly takes place inside Count Rostov’s head, and what a charming, witty and generous head it is. 🎩 This lovely book has been my faithful companion for a while. It is not a weekend read. Amor Towles admits the first half may bog down readers enough that they may abandon the book. BUT DON’T! Towles has written a witty, moving and wise novel that must be read and savoured. 🎩 “I’ll tell you what is convenient,” he said after a moment. “To sleep until noon and have someone bring you your breakfast on a tray. To cancel an appointment at the very last minute. To keep a carriage waiting at the door of one party, so that on a moment’s notice it can whisk you away to another one. To sidestep marriage in your youth and put off having children altogether. These are the greatest conveniences, Anushka — and at one time, I had them all. But in the end, it has been the inconveniences that have mattered to me most.” 🎩 #bookstagram #amortowles #agentlemaninmoscow #bookrecommendations #books #instabooks #instareads

I love choosing which of my 2 year old’s books to take with us when we travel, even if it’s a quick weekend getaway. THE TIGER WHO CAME TO TEA 🐯☕️ is her absolute favourite these days, followed closely by SNOW ⛄️ ❄️, which has a wonderful poem in it but I just end up making up my own story through the illustrations, which are fantastic. WHERE’S BEAR 🐻 and WHERE’S SPOT 🐶 are both fun “hide-and-seek” books, and finally, ITSY BITSY SPIDER, which continues the nursery rhyme with many more adventures for our friend the spider. Do your kids love any of these books? Do you have similar recommendations for me? . . . #childrensbooks #toddlerbooks #raisingreaders #bookstagram #booksfortoddlers #books #picturebooks #childrensbookstagram #booksforkids #kidlit

Do you ever find yourself browsing your own bookshelves and realising you bought two versions of the same book? And you haven’t read either one? #angelacarter #themagictoyshop #bookstagram #bookshelves #books #bookhoarder #bibliophile #addictedtobooks #bookaholic
