luzulaChild of a Hidden Sea by A. M. Dellamonica (2014)
I wanted something lighter to read, and this was perfect! It's a fun portal fantasy in which I totally identify with the main character's reaction when arriving in a new world. She's all "ooh, what a cool eco-system! I wonder what that species is!" Hee. Other than that, there is swashbuckling adventure and family drama, and a bit of courtroom procedural drama. Oh, and a charming brother-sister relationship. I have already ordered the next two in the series.
En svensk anarkist berättar by Nisse Lätt (1982) [The Tales of a Swedish Anarchist, only in Swedish]
These are the memoirs of a Swedish anarchist who was a sailor, then fought in the Spanish Civil War, and then was a traveling agitator for the SAC (the union I'm in). He also worked cutting timber in the north of Sweden. It's a rambling, vigorous and opinionated account. Quite interesting.
