Dear Summer,
Okay, Summer, I know you and I had a lovely Time. But then you just up and left me without even saying goodbye. And guess what? I'm not the kind of girl to cry after you. I've got Autumn now and I'm embracing it. I'm wearing all the shawls you never wanted me to wear, and the boots, and I got myself new handbalm, which you never cared about, and ( Read more... ) -
Books 8-20
(Or, part two of the long-overdue book backup)
8. As Chimney-Sweepers Come To Dust, by Alan Bradley
I liked this, but I didn't love it as much as previous Flavias. I feel that all that background-y stuff about the secret organisations is becoming a bit ... weird? Thoughts, anyone?
9. Total Control, by David Baldacci

Wut, I never updated my booklist after book 3? Gah, I thought I had. I have all of them jotted down in my agenda, but it's gonna take a while to transfer. I so smart, yes.

2016: Books 1-3 & book goals
Book 1: The Second World War, by Antony Beevor
Because I clearly haven't learnt my lesson from last year, this one was one gigantic big tome that took me almost six weeks to read. How am I ever going to approach Shem's book-numbers? Other than that, it was frightfully interesting and I learnt tons.
Book 2: The Martian, by Andy Weir ( Read more... ) -
2015: Books 79-82
Okay, let's pretend it's 6 weeks earlier, right? I totally wasn't lazy in updating my book list AT ALL.
79: The Royal Mess, by Mary Janice Davidson
It started getting really repetitive. And so much insta-love from constant boning. It was a neat idea, but it's clear it wasn't going to go anywhere new.
80: The Green Road, by Anne Enright ( Read more... ) -
Books 70-78
70: Blue Monday, by Nicci French
It was an ok crime novel. I thought it got a bit weird towards the ending, but okay. It was fun reading about the shrink's daily life. I kept imagining my own shrink.
71: Foxglove Summer, by Ben Aaronovich ( Read more... ) -

Not such a good year for the JAOctGoHoNo, this one, but I managed to just finish at least one of the stories I planned. Not sure if it's any good, but at least it's there ( Read more... )
