2025 book 210

 Solvej Blake’s On the Calculation of Volume (Book I)

I’m finally reading the literary time loop novel! It’s projected to be in seven parts, three are out in English with a fourth coming out next year, not sure what the sitch is in the original Danish. Anyway, yeah, this is the story of a woman, an antiquarian bookseller in France, who is trapped in November 18th and it’s maybe driving her crazy a little as she compiles notes and tries to figure out how to escape. Compelling, especially considering how insular it is. Really not sure how future volumes will go. A-.
