We are leaving Marsh Harbor in the Bahamas tomorrow and it's highly unlikely that I'll have internet connection again until after May 20, so I'm not going to be able to record any more points. I will, however, have finished that awful horrendous huge tome - A Winters Tale by Mark Helprin, and I'll have finished The Prague Cemetery, both of which I'm almost through.
And I'll probably have also finished Madame Taussaud
It's been a fun challenge.
I'd like to thank Jackie who had The Bronze Horseman on her list. What an amazing HF read. I just finished it about an hour ago, and am going to download onto my Kindle the next in the Trilogy of Tatiana and Alexander, to begin reading on the passage back to the States.
