I know I am incredibly late with this, but as you probably all know I have been without internet access most of the time for the last couple of weeks. However, this Wednesday I finally received my password so that I could log on to the internet in my room. I will truthfully return to blogging now.
August hasn’t been a great reading month, what with all the stress about the driver’s license test and moving to Sweden for a semester. Considering, 8 books isn’t that bad a number:
- If I Stay – Gayle Forman
- The Constant Liberal: Phyllis Bottome – Pam Hirsch
- The Help – Kathryn Stockett
- Fingersmith – Sarah Waters
- Beside the Sea – Véronique Olmi
- Caramelo – Sandra Cisneros
- The Tapestry of Love – Rosy Thornton
- In His Own Write and A Spaniard in the Works – John Lennon
Most of these have turned out to be great reads, except for If I Stay and the John Lennon book maybe. You might also notice that I still have to review most of these books. I’m hoping to catch up with reviews in September. As I am ridiculously late with this post, I won’t post my “reading plans” for September. To be honest, I don’t really have any (I’m mostly reading for comfort at the moment).
hope all is going well in sweden and you get some internet sorted out ,all the best stu
Some great books there, I’m glad to see you’ve been reading some good ones! Also, I’ll be looking forward to reading your reviews
Some brilliant books. I’ve read Kathryn Stockett, too, and I shall await your review to see what you thought about it.
I read “If I Stay” as part of the Transworld Wummer Reading Challenge and found it a good read (though I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea).
Considering how busy you’ve been I’d say 8 books is pretty awesome! I also read If I Stay last month, and my next book is due to be the Rosy Thorton so I look forward to your review! For now at least, having no reading plans is probably a good idea, one less thing to worry about as you get settled into the new routine.
I read Fingersmith recently as well. I think 8 books is a great number.
It’s great that you still found time to read, and yay for finally having your password! I loved Fingersmith and Beside the Sea! Hope you enjoyed Caramelo, I’ve been eyeing that one for a while. Happy reading in September
