#ThrowbackThursday. Dezember 2015

I've been doing ThrowbackThursdays for a while but I noticed that I wrote a lot of reviews in a short time when I first started. So, I listed more than one Throwback book every week. Now, I have reached the ones I posted ten years ago and will probalby just post one every month. These are my reviews from December 2015.
Kerkeling, Hape "I'm Off Then" (GE: Ich bin dann mal weg) - 2014
A comedian who makes the Camino de Santiago. And not just the last 100 kilometres but the whole way from the French border, 800 kilometres entirely. Even if you're not Catholic or German, this is a fantastic book.


Patchett, Ann "The Patron Saint of Liars" - 1992
The story is interesting, the writing captivating, the characters are somehow mysterious but also loveable. The heroine's life is full of secrets, there are so many lies and everyone seems to know there must be lies but can live with it. 

Roberts, Gregory David "Shantaram" - 2003
This is novel is based on the life of an Australian guy, the author Gregory David Roberts, who went to prison for armed robbery and then fled from there to start a life in India.  He didn't really lead a straight life after that, he led a very interesting one.
