I'm about to start Of Human Bondage :-)"

Oh right, Alice. I'm going to read it towards the end of the month. My face to face book group are discussing it in June. I'll be interested to hear what you think of it.

[Alice]

Sure thing. I think I'll probably write a review after I've finished reading it.

BTW, should you be interested, here's my review of Emile Zola's "The Kill" ("La Curee"):-

Thanks, Alice. I'll have a look at your review. I'm afraid I don't write any reviews, so you won't be able to look at mine in return.

[Gill]

I've updated Message 2, with my challenge list.

I've noticed that the sections I'm falling behind with are the Graham Greene books, and books from the Guardian Top 100 books. I must look into those sections.

Plans for June

Chunky Books

The Brothers Karamazov

[Gill]

I've updated Message 2, my challenge list, with any relevant June readings.

I don't think I'm going to make plans as such for July and will just see which of the books I read this month fit in with my challenge.

[Gill]

Just trying this out!

[Leslie]

Nice picture!

I was trying to follow the instructions you gave me some time ago, Leslie. Thanks! Hopefully I can replicate this on other occasions.

[Leslie]

It gets easier with practice -- one reason that I decorated my challenge so much :D

[Gill]

I've updated Message 2, my Challenge list, with any relevant July books.

So I've already read 21 new authors of fiction in 2014. I'm pleased with that, AAB is certainly widening my reading experiences!

[Gill]

I've now updated Message 2, my Challenge List, with the relevant August Books.

[Gill]

I've now updated Message 2, my Challenge List, with the relevant books for September. I find it hard to believe that there are only 3 more months this year. It's nearly time for my 2015 challenge!

[Gill]

I've just updated Message 2 with books that I read in October for my challenge.

[Gill]

I've just updated Message 2 with my November reads.

[Gill]

I've just updated Post 2 for the end of the year, including relevant December reads.

One of the things I'm most pleased with this year, is how many new fiction authors I have read.I was aiming to read 5 New authors, and I've actually read 32 New authors!

Thanks, Alannah. I've enjoyed most things I've read this year.
