the Japanese word for the habit of buying books and letting them pile up unread is “Tsundoku”. It’s not really about being a hoarder; it’s more about the joy and anticipation of owning books you genuinely intend to read someday, even if they end up sitting on your shelf for a while. I definitely relate because I have so many books I own but have never actually read 😂
I should probably count them!
When Darkness Comes by John Anthony Miller, is a gripping historical thriller that has enthralled readers with its vivid portrayal of courage amid atrocity, earning widespread acclaim for its emotional depth and unflinching look at the human spirit during World War II. Set in Nazi-occupied Paris in 1942, the novel weaves together the fates of three resilient souls: Paul, a haunted banker reeling from the Gestapo's slaughter of his family; Rachel, a bold 16-year-old Jewish girl who defies danger to lead her kin in quiet rebellion; and Claire, a compassionate bookstore owner whose hidden network smuggles Jews to safety at great personal peril. As the city's shadows lengthen under occupation, their unlikely alliance forges bonds of sacrifice, forbidden romance, and unyielding resistance, forcing each to confront the darkness within and without while racing against the tide of impending doom.Readers have praised the novel's heart-pounding tension and richly drawn characters. A Goodreads reviewer enthused, “Wonderfully written and sure to keep any reader up into the wee hours of the morning to finish. I was almost disappointed when I got to the end. It was that good!” Another shared, “I loved this historical fiction set in France during WWII... one of the main characters, Rachel, does this not just to her boss but also to the French Police and the Nazi officers! (the epic scene is on page 122) And she’s only 16!” On Amazon, a fan raved, “I give When Darkness Comes 100 Stars!! Miller has crafted a story with a cast of soulful characters caught in a web of survival,” awarding it 5 stars. A UK reviewer added, “A great thriller set in the Second World War... well written, easy read with each chapter ending, leaves you wanting to continue to get to the end of the story.” X posts from @authorjamiller
