Last year I joined the Facebook-group of a new favourite author and picked up several book recommendations for other authors from there. Among others I found Small Change by Roan Parrish. Small Change is about tattoo artist Ginger's and cook Christopher's love story and it was amazing and it needs a review all of its… Continue reading Book Thoughts: Invitation to the Blues
It can come as no surprise to any one who had cast a glance at my list of read books for 2017 and 2018 that I like K.J. Charles's books. This one is a long novella at about 40k words and I am so happy that K.J. polished it up and decided to publish it… Continue reading Book Thoughts: Unfit to Print
So I said I picked up The Prisoner of Zenda for reasons to become apparent. Now they'll become apparent. I found author KJ Charles last year, quite by chance in February. One of her Society of Gentlemen books were on sale and it was recommended to me in a book group I follow on Facebook. I… Continue reading Book Thoughts: The Henchmen of Zenda
For reasons that will become apparent I picked up The Prisoner of Zenda by Anthony Hope a few weeks ago. It is available for free at Project Gutenberg. It was written in 1894 so it has fallen out of copyright. It was written at the same time as Arthur Conan Doyle wrote his Sherlock Holmes books and the language… Continue reading Book Thoughts: The Prisoner of Zenda
The other day I got to thinking about books (well, that's a lie, I always think about books). Rickard asked me what I was reading and I told him the title (An Unseen Attraction by KJ Charles), so when he asked me what the book was about I stuttered and mumbled something before finally settling… Continue reading Book Shame
I'm working on my book challenge and with more than 50 % of the year left I have read 70 % of the books I "have" to read. This is the pile I have by my bed of books I want to read. I feel like I am constantly "improving" my tsundoku-skills. I keep buying books… Continue reading Book pile
There is a book store in town that I soon need to be bared from. I cannot go there and not buy a book (or three). Today I went there to pick up one I had ordered and when I had just paid for it I said to the girl that I needed to order… Continue reading Book store
I recently finished Strange the Dreamer by Laini Taylor and I have been trying to organise my thoughts into something of a review. I have read books by her before. Her Daughter of Smoke and Bone-trilogy is one of my favourite book series, so I was of course thrilled that she was releasing a new… Continue reading Book thoughts: Strange the Dreamer
So it's a new year. The holidays are over. We "celebrated" the last today, 20th-day after Christmas when you're supposed to take down all the decorations. We didn't have a tree this year but I had some stuff up that needed to be put away and I'm mostly done. Just a few knick-knacks left to… Continue reading Books for the new year
#Readathon: Hour 21 Local time: 10:00 Hours spent reading: 7 Pages read: 250 Books finished: 1 I crashed around 9.30 pm yesterday (hour 10-ish) and called it a night. Then I slept in and didn't start reading again until just now. Currently reading: The Watchmaker of Filigree Street. It's been a fun and weird read. Kind of slow… Continue reading Readathon – hour 21
