I was going to re-read anyway. Last read was 7 months ago so that's close but acceptable I think. But maybe I'll find something else set on Mars. I'll have a look :)

Just finished . One of my favourite re-reads. *sigh*

Do we still need a book for Mars? Or has that goal been fulfilled?

Welcome back Jennifer! Hope you had fun despite the cold!"

I did thanks! Missed my books though :)

I'm reading . I'm really enjoying romantic suspense at the moment.

Hi Guys!! I'm back from my camping trip and am planning do de-frost in my cozy bedroom with a good book and some tea :D

Shropshire in November is freezing!!

Now which book to read ……… :)

I'm going camping for a few days so I probably won't get much chance to update and read. I'll be back the weekend probably.

Happy reading everybody!!
