I know! I have a lot of different reading challenges and so have a lot of different genres, all great though – can't wait to get cracking :)

A BiT mad? honey, you went on a spree! Looks like a wonderful batch of books though. The Piano Teacher was a great read, imho. I hope you enjoy it.

Have a great week and happy reading. My MM is here

I know, I know…I'm a shopaholic and Bookaholic!! Not a good combination really. You should see my house, I could set up my own book shop! My husband always shakes his head when I come rolling in with bags of books from Waterstones book shop, or he sees another Amazon box in the recycle bin. One time I said I would not buy any more new books and would go to my local charity, which I did, but ended up buying 20 books! I can't help it – buying is in my blood ;)

Hi Mary,
At last we get to comment! I'm glad it's working now. I have never read any of Marian Keyes before, so will be good to read a completely new author. Thanks for stopping by :)

Oh you did go a bit mad – but it's great to see all those lovely books. :) It looks very smart and I love your new blog.

I'm trying to collect the Laurrell K Hamilton books, but I am yet to get started as I haven't got the first one yet, and I am searching for them via charity shops etc.

Good luck, enjoy yourself!

purplg8 – I hope they are good too. I have heard good things from my friends though (which is the reason I bought them). Fingers crossed :)

Anna – Thanks, I will. I love starting a brand new book that's never been read before!

Mary – I thought The Piano Teacher looked interesting. Not the kind of book I would usually go for so we shall see…

Sassy – I know, I did go a bit mad…I have got and read all of the Anita Blake series by Laurell K Hamilton but I haven't read the Merry Gentry books yet – they are on my TBR pile though. Let me know what you think of them :)
