Hi Caroline,

For the 2010 reading challenge I would like you to read your SS prezzie 'Mariana' by Monica Dickens. It's one I've been meaning to read myself so will join you in reading it. Hope that's ok and I've added you as a friend.

Hi Caroline,

I'd like to challenge you with The Poison That Fascinates by Jennifer Clement. I haven't read this book, but it sounds interesting and so I'll look forward to hearing what you think about it.

Thanks

Thanks for the challenge Caroline. Funnily enough, I was going to read that one a couple of weeks ago and then went for something else instead. I'm looking forward to it!

Thanks for the challenge Caroline. One of the first books I bought based on recommendations on the forum, so about time I got stuck in!

Hi Caroline
You and I don't share a lot of books, so have gone for one that looks an attractive read - I hope I get the time to read it myself: I Am Rembrandt's Daughter by Lynn Cullen.

Caroline, for the 2010 reading challenge I have chosen Star Gazing by Linda Gillard for you to read. It's a wonderful book, one of my all time favourites, and one of very few that I have read more than once. Linda Gillard deserves to have more people read her work, and I hope you like it.

Hi Caroline

I've just finished reading that book you gave me, Season of the Witch by Natasha Mostert - I really enjoyed the story. I thought the writing was a little cliched at times, but for me it was very different, and a bit of a page turner!

Thanks for passing it on,

Michaela

Hi Caroline,

I read it last year or early this year - a while ago anyway. I enjoyed it and I'm glad that you did too.

posted by silvercowrie at 5:10 pm (EST) on Oct 20, 2009

Hi Caroline

Yes, I really enjoyed it. I bought another book of hers today, but can't remember it's name. It's upstairs at the moment and I can't be bothered to go and fetch it! I am on holiday (I'm at my sister's in Paignton) so that's my excuse!

I know I've got The Bean Trees to read as well, as part of my LT Challenge, and I'm looking forward to that now.
