Book of the Month |
I have to say that I thoroughly enjoyed both novels that were selected for our Cover of the Month, but I have gone for something different to read for my Book of the Month selection. More Vikings, yes, but this one was a page-turning adventure that really took you to early Russia and into the life of a teenage boy. Loved it!

I thoroughly enjoyed this novel, apart from because it was well written and engrossing but I had never heard of these events of WWII so it was fascinating to learn a bit about the past whilst being admirably entertained. *** *** OUR JANUARY SELECTIONS

| Read our Review |
several good books to read this month,
but Sons of Rome, I particularly enjoyed
Annie Whitehead's To Be A Queen (see below) would have been my choice, but as she is a personal friend I did not feel that I could select it.

That said ...SPAMMERS or distasteful rudeness will be stamped on, squashed, composted and very possibly cursed - if you spam my blog, next time something nasty happens to you just remember that I DID warn you...
