Ruby Red is a book I that I listened to in German because I wanted to try out the audiobook function in the Onleihe app using my iPhone. The thing with Onleihe is that audiobooks can only be downloaded on Windows because the files are WMA.

The first time I saw the US cover of Cinder, I was instantly drawn to it. The red heel is so striking, it immediately draws in the eye. Add on the X-ray view of the leg, which reveals mechanical parts rather than bones and it is bound to attract attention.

Originally published in Australia last lear June, Wildlife hit the international arena this year — April in Germany and the past week in the USA. The German title, Wilder Sommer doesn’t deviate too much from the English titles. Translated it means “wild summer” which is pretty clear, in my opinion.

I’m constantly surprised when I come across translated books with covers that are so vastly different from one another, you’d hardly think they’re of the same book. It particularly baffles me when the covers imply very different genres. That’s what happened with The Archived by Victoria Schwab.

It’s about time I took a look at a book I’ve already read. As I scanned through my recent books on Goodreads, Every Day by David Levithan caught my eye. For one, David Levithan’s books have been translated into many languages and for another, I liked Every Day a lot. The prose was wonderful and the concepts were extremely thought-provoking.
