Mr W has collected another library reservation for me (bang goes my resolution of no more than 1 library book a month - although I didn't have one in January so I guess it's ok ): Dangerous Women by Hope Adams

3 library books
La forma dell'acqua by Andrea Camilleri, inspector Montalbano #1. This is just a test to see if I would be able to read in Italian. I can manage and understand quite well but honestly I believe this is beyond me. I'll know very quickly.
Big Sky by Kate Atkinson Jackson Brodie #5 (challenge)
The Sympathiser by Nguyen Viet Thanh

These are all part of the Popular Rewards series, I'm slowly collecting all the Blyton I can get my hands on, nostalgia I guess. And I want my kids to have them to read and have read to them as well
