I READ GREAT BOOKS WHILE I'VE BEEN AWAY

Perfume: The Story of a Murderer

This is hands down one of the best books I have ever read. The writing is immaculate; it reminds me of Lolita for some odd reason. The way scent is captured and the characterization. There's a unique cast of characters, and it's thrilling to see how Grenouille impacts their lives; my favorite interaction is with Baldini because of all the scent and perfume descriptions.
