What are you reading?

That's something not to brag about for sure.

I wonder if the bragging is a coping mechanism. Instead of feeling like a victim, she spins it to be something she feels she can control. That's my guess, anyway.

I spent over 3 hours reading yesterday: and the book was worth every minute.

The main character was having an affair. Needless to say, the man she was having an affair with did a runner and her husband and herself broke up. But there was no reunion at the end: they stayed friends instead, which disappointed me as a reader. I wanted them to live happily ever after. But the writer knew the story and did a stellar job.

Again, well worth the 3 hour reading binge.

JD Wingfield writes so well the charecters jump off the page..

I read that book, it was fascinating.  I pain a £1 for it in a charity shop.

I finished a Christmas book today and sent my mum a photo of the cover as part of my recommendation. It's called An Ivy Hill Christmas (Julie Klassen). If she hasn't already signed it out of the library before, I let her know I'll have it back there soon. And I'll keep the author in mind when looking for ebooks or other library books. Nice to have found a new author!

Now I should get back to non-fiction during the day, besides reading The Scarlet Pimpernel via Serial Reader. The online book club I'm hosting has the first two books picked out now, so we'll do How Did I Get Here? (Christine Caine) for October and Get Out of Your Head (Jennie Allen) for November. I'm not finished with the first, but read the second last summer and will refresh my memory for the discussion.

Current Narnia book with the youngest boy: The Horse and His Boy. I know the Calormenes are supposed to be quite brutal in all the books and they're enemies of the Narnians, but I love reading their poetic and flowing speech. "Oh my father and the delight of my eyes..." "Deep draughts from the fountain of reason are desirable in order to extinguish the fire of youthful love." "Application to business is the root of prosperity, but those who ask questions that do not concern them are steering the ship of folly towards the rock of indigence." Fun stuff!

I have started The Butlerian Jihad by Brian Herbert. It's a good read.

I went to the library last week. I now have a new pile of 3 novels to read through: which is my passion in life.

I LOVE music, art and literature: and computing, of course.

Yes! I wasn't sure how the middle guy would feel about it, though. He's never shown interest in stories of kids with autism before. Maybe this will be just the first!

Miriam Margolyes This much is true. When I heard Miriam had written a book I had to have it , she brightens any day she really is funny..

I also like her. She was in the series about celebs living in india, and came across as a pleasant person to spend time with, and genuine.

I picked up Star Mother: A Novel as my monthly free book... Out of the choices, it sounded the most interesting. Not sure when I'll get around to it like all the others, but it's there for a rainy day lol

I read a book yesterday: and utterly enjoyed it. It had such an interesting plot-line and just was enjoyable to read.

I definitely can not get enough of reading books!

I have a drawer full of started but never finished books. If I start one and put it down for a few days it seems to end up here.
