The end of the year was tricky and I completely dropped the ball on what I read, so here is most of it!
Prince of Hazel and Oak – John Lenahan
These were on my TBR list, they were easy and quite lovely to read.
When Did You Last See Your Father – Jodi Taylor
I have a Jodi Taylor problem, I seem to love everything she writes.
Eggnog Makes Her Easy – Erin Nicholas
This was a quick easy novella but I didn’t much care for it. It’s a culture thing.
Why Is Nothing Ever Simple – Jodi Taylor
Why isn’t it? I’m looking forward to the next full length St Mary’s but this was a delightful Christmas Day read.
See above..
Someone to Remember – Mary Balogh
I’m a bit cross. You don’t get many older romance heroines and I think this one deserved more than an novella.
Sword of Kings – Bernard Cornwell
I’m determined to see this series through, I am loving that Uhtred gets beaten occasionally on account of him being so old..
The Queen of Nothing – Holly Black
I loved this, I loved the whole series, I pretty much love all of Holly Black’s novels for slightly older readers. I loved Jude and I loved how this turned out!
A Single Thread – Tracy Chevalier
This is a subject I have a lot of personal sympathy with and I enjoyed it and the idea of found family but I really did find the ‘romance’ ridiculous and I found the ending unrealistic.
The Time Traveller’s Guide to Elizabethan England – Ian Mortimer
This was a birthday present from Jo and I really enjoyed it. If you’re interested in the subject this is a great entry into the era..
