West with the Night - Beyrl Markham

If you’ve seen Out of Africa, the Felicity character is based upon Mrs Markham. The producers of OoA didn’t have the rights to her story, so they wrote in Felicity instead.

This book pairs nicely with Too Close To The Sun: the life and times of Deynis Finch-Hatton, the Redford character in OoA, by Sara Wheeler, and of course Out of Africa, by Isak Dinesen (Karen Blixen) that introduced us to these real life stories from the then British East Africa.
 
I'm about to reread Fourth Wing and Iron Flame because Iron Flame put me in a godsdamned book hangover and the third in the series isn't out until January of next year. This is why I hate series books.. and yet I read so many of them.
 
Rainblow, did you know despite being very dead Mo Hayder has another new book out! Sounds good too.
