This weekend, Joffe's third Free Friday book is a Spanish 1800s royal history, Royal Vendetta, by Theo Aronson. I haven't read anything by Aronson, but he seems to have made a career of writing royal histories. And it's got four-stars on Goodreads, which is pretty good.

My husband read Blind Man's Bluff: The Untold Story Of American Submarine Espionage, by Sherry Sontag and Christopher Drew, back around the time it came out and really liked it. It's on sale now in the US for $2.99.

This month's free University of Chicago Press ebook is Memory: Fragments of a Modern History.
“Impressive. . . . Winter has done an admirable job synthesizing many diverse sources into a tidy cultural history. . . . A compelling demonstration that the science of memory—like all science—is both a product of and an influence on the culture from which it springs” — Bookforum |

Riffing on the “octopus” theme, The Soul of an Octopus: A Surprising Exploration into the Wonder of Consciousness by Sy Montgomery looks pretty interesting. And it is on sale today for $1.99 in the US, as part of today’s Kindle Daily Deal, and matched at Kobo US. Where, although it’s not discountable, it is available for 2400 Kobo Super Points, if you have any of those hanging around.

This is from April, so not sure for how much longer this is up for grabs, but it seems like no one else has posted it here, and they're still free as of right now. |
