On the kindle this month, we have Jane Eyre. What took me so long to read this book?! I guess it always seemed boring, but I've loved most other classics I've read, and I'm so glad I have finally delved into this one! It's wonderful so far.

Book of the Month - Jane Eyre and The Help
If you read my New Year's Resolutions, you may have noticed I vowed to read one book per month. Well, this month is not over yet, but it almost is and I already know I will not have complete a whole book. However, I am about halfway through TWO books, so it pretty much evens out, right?

As for book number two, I have not completed converted to Kindle usage yet and have many physical books that I still want to read. Mostly because I spent the money on those darn things and they are currently taking up space on my bookshelf!! My bookshelf is full of mysterious stories and characters that I am finally ready to discover. So in my hands this month is The Help. I am refusing to see the movie until I finish the book. I love love LOVE the book so far, it does not disappoint!
I have a couple books that I want to read this year, but nothing is set in stone and I am always looking for suggetions! What is the best book you've read in the past year?

ReplyDeletei don't know if you like post-apocalyptic feminist sci-fi (yes i'm serious.), but anything by margaret atwood is amazing. i recommend the handmaid's tale, oryx and crake and the sequel, the year of the flood. they can be a bit dark but they're very enjoyable, and fascinating. they're not overwhelmingly sci-fi, definitely subtle.
ReplyDeleteI'm reading The Girl with Dragon Tattoo right now! Its pretty good, I haven't gotten to the more intense part yet though, I have heard it is gory, so I will keep you posted! BUT, have you read The Glass Castle? If not you MUST! Also Magical Thinking is another favorite!
