Hi all and welcome to the Trainreads Challenge, a semi-regular challenge inspired by my weekend usually including some long train journeys on which I would like to do some reading. Trainreads Challenges will be 24, 48 or 72 hours long, depending what my schedule is doing at the time.

This weekend I'm going to be on trains for 7-8 hours over a 48 hour period. I'm making this post at roughly 9am Friday my time (GMT) for goal-setting, and I'll make a check-in post at roughly 9am Sunday my time to see how we all get on.

Try to set yourself realistic goals given your schedule for the next 48 hours, and good luck!

Finished Piranesi. Given the length of Clarke's previous work, I was kind of surprised by how short this was, and thus how close to the end I already was!

It’s very different to her previous work in size! Did you enjoy it.

I did! I think the theme of my reading this year has been unreliable narrators, and this finished it off nicely. I like that it was cautiously optimistic in ending, because there were so many other options that I would have found unsatisfying.
