Literary Love: In Honour of Valentine’s Day #2

  Last year, I posted a list of books about different types of love in honour of Valentine's Day. It was fun to do, so this year I am going to do it again using books I have read more recently. Unrequited Love: Us Conductors by Sean Michaels  I am an instrument. I am a … Continue reading Literary Love: In Honour of Valentine’s Day #2

Favourite Books of 2014

I read too many good books this year to decide on a Top 10 list like I did last year. So, instead, I'm looking back on my favourite books of the year, month by month.

Top Ten Reads for 2013: A Family Affair

In my previous post, I listed my top ten reads for 2013.  Then, I thought it might be fun for my daughter (who is 12 years old) to think about her own top books of the year.  As with my own list, these are not necessarily 2013 books, and they are not in any order. … Continue reading Top Ten Reads for 2013: A Family Affair

My Top 10 Reads for 2013

This is a list of my favourite books that I read this year (2013).  Not necessarily books that have been published in 2013, and not in any particular order.  That would have needed too much thought and decision-making.  It was hard enough just to narrow it down to ten.  Here they are: Rush Home Road by Lori … Continue reading My Top 10 Reads for 2013
