I finished Free Land last week - excellent book, highly recommended to any Little House on the Prairie, A Lantern In Her Hand, O Pioneer! or Mrs. Mike fans.
If you don't recognize any of those titles, run, don't walk, to your library. Now!
This week I am reading The Importance of Being Seven, Book 6 in the 44 Scotland Street series by Alexander McCall Smith. Mr. Smith is more famous for his No. 1 Ladies Detective Agency series, but I may even enjoy this one more. The series is actually published as a serial in a Scottish newspaper. It follows the lives of the inhabitants of 44 Scotland Street.
I will put a more thorough review of the book in my monthly reading log - after I have finished it! I actually had to go to the trouble of getting this one inter-library loan, and so far it is worth it.
I have gotten crazy on http://www.goodreads.com/ this week - I am not completely certain how the "friending" works there, but if you are there, please let me know and we can be friends! I have a long "to be read" list now, based on their recommendations. Just another fun website to while away valuable time on, but it does eliminate two logs I was maintaining, my "to be read" list and my "what I read this year" list. I have a link down on the right, with my current reads and a link to some of my favorite books.
Happy reading - let me know what you are reading this week!
Miss Paula you certainly have a way of making my TBR list longer and longer. You seem to know just my type of book. Thanks for keeping me in the know.
