The wonderful world of books enriches our lives by giving us the opportunity to experience, well pretty much anything one can imagine! We can be transported to a new time or place, experience pure joy or extreme sadness, become a president or a slave etc. etc.********************************************************************************
This week I read and reviewed Playing House by Fredrica Wagman. I am still haunted by the main chartacter - a sign of great writing I guess? I was a disturbed woman (to put it mildly) in love with her brother :o
In desperate need of a change of scenery, I picked up on oldy but a goody Mr. Darcy's Diary by Amanda Grange (same author as Mr. Darcy, Vampyre). Lucky me, I got to be Darcy for a few days as he meets & falls in love with Elizabeth. I wish I had an estate & people waiting on me:)
...and continuing on with historical fiction, I just started The White Queen by Philippa Gregory.

ReplyDeleteI just finished circle of souls that took place in Newbury CT. I am now reading The beginning by ellen Schreiber which is actually 3books in 1 from the vampire kisses series. The setting is Dullsville..LOL! :)
ReplyDeleteYou would have been luckier being Elizabeth, trust me! (I'll bring over my 4 hour A&E movie one of these days, starring Colin Firth as Darcy, mmmm)
