BOOKS 2011 - 4
Dec. 5th, 2011 09:08 pmThe Apothecary Rose - Candace Robb - historical mystery, set in pre-War of the Roses England. Good enough to find the rest of the series, not good enough to buy them.
Cold Magic - Kate Elliott - mmmmm, yummy. I will be buying the next one in the series, and eagerly anticipating the third!
Thud! - Terry Pratchett - a Discworld Watch book. What more can I say?
Two Years Before the Mast - Richard Henry Dana, Jr. - So my parents gave my brother a copy when we were kids, to encourage him to read. But they wouldn't give me books at that point, because it was established that I was (and continue to be) a voracious reader. And now I have finally read this book. It has a lot of sailing jargon in it. I skimmed over that. The rest of the book is very interesting, especially since I have a slight familiarity with the parts of California he is discussing. Gutenberg has the e-book, if you'd like to try. I will probably read his other travel account, of a trip to Cuba.
Year's total: 158
