Haste Ye Books | Books I added to my TBR thanks to the Edinburgh Book Festival 2021 @hasteyebooks | Uploaded September 2021 | Updated October 2024, 7 hours ago.
August has come and gone and so has the Edinburgh International Book Festival 2021. It had a fantastic line up and I discuss 11 (and a few more) books that I now want to read.
I fucked up a little bit regarding Wayétu Moore - she was discussing her memoir "The Dragons, The Giant, The Women" but I latched on to "She Would Be King" somehow, which came out in 2018. Excited for both though!
Also, you can do a drinking game and take a shot every time I say 'interesting' 😂
