This years reading.

Rather than just moan on the internet to absolutely no-one, I thought I might use this page to write about things I like (and probably things I don't like too). I love to read, so the first thing I'm going to do is list the books I have read this year (so far), then I'll continue to add posts about each book I read thereafter. Maybe someone might actually read some of my posts and add their thoughts if they have read the same book, or if they have any questions, I shall endeavour to answer in a timely fashion. :D

I received a Kindle for my Christmas, so I went a bit crazy buying e-books. Unfortunately, because I was so busy during the festive season, I didn't get a chance to set it up (I was still reading a couple of other books too) until Jan 3rd. In no particular order, I have read the following since then.

1. Ghost Town (Morganville Vampires, book 9) Rachel Caine
2. Dead Until Dark (Sookie Stackhouse, book 1) Charlaine Harris
3. Living Dead In Dallas (Sookie Stackhouse, book 2) Charlaine Harris
4. Club Dead (Sookie Stackhouse, book 3) Charlaine Harris
5. Dead To The World (Sookie Stackhouse, book 4) Charlaine Harris
6. Dead As A Doornail (Sookie Stackhouse, book 5) Charlaine Harris
7. Definitely Dead (Sookie Stackhouse, book 6) Charlaine Harris
8. All Together Dead (Sookie Stackhouse, book 7) Charlaine Harris
9. From Dead To Worse (Sookie Stackhouse, book 8) Charlaine Harris
10. Dead And Gone (Sookie Stackhouse, book 9) Charlaine Harris
11. Dead In The Family (Sookie Stackhouse, book 10) Charlaine Harris
12. A Touch Of Dead (Sookie Stackhouse, 5 short stories) Charlaine Harris
13. Song Of The Swan ~ Kelly Ferjutz
14. The Lost Daughter ~ Diane Chamberlain
15. The Bride's Baby ~ Liz Fielding
16. The Long Song ~ Andrea Levy

I am currently re-reading Little Women, and My Story: The X Factor Winners Story by Matt Cardle. They shall be numbered in a later post, once I have finished them.

As is evident from my list, I like vampire stories. I read young adult books and romance for a light read, and I enjoy reading about peoples lives. The Long Song was just my kind of book, written from the point of view of a freed slave from Jamaica, and The Lost Daughter ticked my boxes too, being about a woman who reveals her secret past nearly 30 years on after commiting a crime. Song of the Swan was a free download, and rubbish.

Well, Thats enough from me for tonight. My Kindle is calling...
