About my libraryEver expanding!
I joined a wonderful online reading group in June 2006 - you all know who you are!! - and since then I've discovered more and more books plus sites such as this. It is through them that I now catalogue books and keep a record of what I've read. So although there are many books out there that I've read and no longer have, I haven't catalogued them.
I've set up tags to show authors until I've read every one I already own by them. Eek! Might take me a long time lol!

I am going to challenge you to read The Marriage Bureau for Rich People by Farahad Zama. I hadn't heard of it before seeing it in your library and it might be fun. I'll look forward to hearing what you make of it.

Sorry I didn't reply before I only acquired the Women and the Great War a couple of weeks ago and not had a proper look at it yet. I'm sure it will be very interesting and look forward to discussing it with you at some future date, either on the weekends away or days out in York.

PS thanks for your challenge and I'll be challenging you soon, hopefully later on today while Paul is watching the football and my farmville is up to date, lol.

Hope you enjoy it!

Thanks for the short read challenge, very kind of you, xx
I'd like to challenge you to read Grotesque by Natsuo Kirino, as if I remember right we both loved Out and I have this too so am hoping neither of us will be disappointed.
