Re: Books that distract us

Hi all. Jumping over to this thread as I went through it after spending some time around books this afternoon on a trip out.

I'm a huge fan of young adult books. One of my favourite series is The Hunger Games which all three are right up there with the most unputdownable books I've ever read. I also loved HP (anyone else taken the sorting hat quiz to find out what house they're in?!).

A Wrinkle in Time has just made it's way into our house as one of mine asked to read it before seeing the movie. Hoping it will provide a good escape/distraction. The movie looks awesome! ☺

Re: Books that distract us

@CheerBear Love hunger games and hp books too 😁

Re: Books that distract us

Just finished reading David Roland's How I Rescued My Brain - the author is a psychologist and it's a memoir of how he recovered from a stroke and trauma.  Does anyone have any inspiring biographies they've found on the road to recovery?

Re: Books that distract us

Re: Books that distract us

Feeling a bit lonely, trying to find company in books. 🙂 It's held in a few libraries ( https://trove.nla.gov.au/work/189983066?q=how+I+rescued+my+brain&c=book ) if that helps at all.

Re: Books that distract us

thank you @Gwynn Heart
