My book club reads for this month are:
- Strength in What Remains by Tracy Kidder
- Silas Marner by George Eliot
- Nectar in a Sieve by Kamala Markandaya
- Michelangelo & the Pope's Ceiling by Ross King
- Tulip Fever by Deborah Moggach (recommended by leeswammes)
- Annexed by Sharon Dogar (recommended by see scoot read)
Aside from these books I will certainly work through my TBR piles (that thing I mentioned last month about not buying books? yeah, didn't happen). I have to spend some time organizing them so I can be reminded of what is there, but I'd really much rather spend the time reading .....
Oh, and later this month will be my one year blogiversary! I'm thinking of offering some sort of giveaway, so stay tuned!
A nice mix of books, Sue! And I'm pleased you're picking up Tulip Fever, I liked it. I actually exchanged it with a friend for another book about the tulip fever, called The House of Windjammer. I might read that this month.
ReplyDeleteAlmost your blogoversary! Wow! I've just passed the half-year mark.
Happy reading!
I haven't made any progress on Silas Marner yet either.I really meant to. Because I too wanted a good start on War and Peace. Getting worried about that one...
ReplyDeleteI read Nectar in a Sieve recently and loved it. Good luck with Silas Marner!
ReplyDeleteYou have some great books lined up. Its my blogoversary this month too - hasn't the year gone fast?
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your reading.
I would recommend downloading a family tree and list of characters for War & Peace, I have found these invaluable while reading this!
