hiya are these books you have read this year if so my goodness well done i love reading but juggle it with stitching so my reading progress has been quite slow..
Hi again Lelia,
What am I reading right now???
Well, because of the situation
with my mom my reading time has
been severely diminished in the
past few weeks. I am still
reading book three in Robin
Hobbs last Farseer series,
also known as the Tawny Man
trilogy. At nine hundred pages
it's a big read, but I'm loving
it.
I've seen The Lace Reader
mentioned on many blogs and its
on my "Gotta Get" list. I also
want the new book by Maeve
Binchy. Kelley Armstrong has a
new one out, and I love her.
She's paranormal fiction. My
favourite historical fiction
author Sharon Kay Penman has a
new book out which is part of
a trilogy on Eleanor of Aquitaine
and Henry II. There are books by
Jodi Picoult and Kathy Reichs to
add to my collections too. Theres
an author name Elizabeth Bear
whose books sound very interesting
and Kate Morton has a book called
The House at Riverton which I've
heard good things about.
Are you sorry you asked yet??
My book shelves downstairs are
filled to bursting and I have
no where else to put the new
stuff. Guess it'll soon be time
to purge.
Have you ever read The Time
Traveler's Wife by Audrey
Niffenegger??? If not I highly
highly recommend it!
Cheers!
hiya i have tagged you lol its fun have a go and take a look at my blog thanks..
