2051 26 - Musicophilia: Tales of Music and the Brain Musicophilia Tales of Music and the Brain by Oliver Sacks by Oliver Sacks

Quite theoretical reading, which I don't usually enjoy, but this book is really interesting! WOuld quite like to read The Man Who Mistook His Wife for a Hat And Other Clinical Tales by Oliver Sacks now...

2051 19 - The Dress by Sophie Nicholls The Dress by Sophie Nicholls.
A newly written book, sent to me on my Kindle to review, so I will... I did enjoy it, it reminded me of the film Chocolat (haven't read the book of it yet, it's on my list of to be read) - in the sense of a mother and daughter who move to a new town/city to set up shop and attenmpt to fit in with the locals. It was a nice, easy read and I finished it in a couple of days... Recommended!

Didn't stop me buying books at all. I just can't see my problem this way! Love it"


Yep, it seems to be the best 'solution'! I'm still downloading all the free stuff I can get, but looking through, I have enough books to take up at least one shelf but without the shelf/space taken up!

2051 15 - Alison Wonderland by Helen Smith Alison Wonderland byHelen Smith
The first book I am reading on my new Kindle... I did enjoy it whilst I was reading it, but it is one of those books that I just wouldn't be able to describe to anyone; I cannot remember what happened in it!!
