From the 70
or so links in February's Books You Loved I have chosen a few reviews to feature. To see more of the February books at a glance
just pop over to this Pinboard.
First a
romance, How to Choose a Sweetheart by Nigel Bird. Me,
Bookshelf and I said 'Great characters, funny events and brilliant story
make this a must read.'
Katie at Doing Dewey brought over How
to Write Short by Roy Peter Clark.
Katie said 'Given how much we
write short, from reviews to tweets, I think this would make a fantastic
reference book for any blogger.'
Judy at Keep the Wisdom brought us The
Signature of All Things by Elizabeth Gilbert.
She said 'Oh my. I
loved this book. I didn't want it to end. I wish I was still reading it.'
Bookalicious Babe Book Reviews brought us Maeve Binchy's last book
A
Week in Winter.
Sue said 'What a sweet, gentle, engaging novel
about the power of nature, rest, and kind people. It shows that sometimes we
all need to remove ourselves from the crazy in our lives and be quiet and
still.'
I've posted up "Gone With The Wind" this month - I'm sure that everyone's heard of it, so feel free to come and share your thoughts!
ReplyDeleteI linked a review for Born of Persuasion :)
ReplyDeleteI posted two, I just couldn't decide on one this month. Doomed by Tracy Deebs was phenomenal, and Ignite Me by Tahereh Mafi, the series finale in the Shatter Me series. Both young adult.
ReplyDeleteTin Star is space travel, people/beings from other worlds and a romance. I love it enough to buy a copy for my personal library. I'll read it again.
ReplyDeleteI linked my review of Tribute by Ellen Renner, incredible YA fantasy out on the 6th March - highly recommended.
ReplyDeleteThanks fro the email reminder, joined up :}

My Book Entry
Thanks, Carole. I included two links from last month.
ReplyDeletePosted my link!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the link up, Carole. Just linked Fer-de-Lance by Rex Stout.
ReplyDeleteI'm linking of The Yellow Eyes of Crocodiles by Katherine Pancol, a French writer whom I've just discovered. It was a very satisfying read!
ReplyDeleteJennifer McMahon's The Winter People is my link up for this month. Gothic horror at its best!
ReplyDeleteAdded mine!
ReplyDeleteThank you for this great site, Carole. I love it more every month.
ReplyDeleteMy favourite book last month was by an author I really love, Orhan Pamuk, the novel is called The White Castle. The author recieved the Nobel Price for literature in 2006 and really deserved it.
Marianne from Let's Read
I love books! I wish I was a faster reader, I have a library of books calling my name.
ReplyDeleteLots of reviews from me this month!!! I'm getting on with my reviews, Carole. Thanks for hosting!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Carole, all linked up.
ReplyDeleteI haven't been reviewing as many books as I read, but hopefully that will change :D
ReplyDeleteCarole, thank you very much for hosting this fabulous feature! I've just added my link, which includes a giveaway for the book. :)
ReplyDeletePosted Sunset Song, the first in a Scottish Classics trilogy. Great books!
ReplyDeleteGreat list as always Carole and contributors xx
ReplyDeleteSo sorry -- I did not mean to hit the Enter button before adding the name of the book! I reviewed The Sharper Your Knife, the Less You Cry: Love, Laughter, and Tears in Paris at the World's Most Famous Cooking School by Kathleen Flinn.
ReplyDeleteWhoops forgot to add the name of the book!! Little Beach Street Bakery by Jenny Colgan is another fabulous read by this author but why oh why does she make me feel like I need to open all these little shops!!
ReplyDeleteHello again, Carole! ;) So far, I've been reading some really good books this month. I just haven't chosen my favorite book for the month of March yet. I'll be back later on to add my link to the list once I've picked a monthly favorite! ;)
ReplyDeleteThanks so much, Carole!
Well, that didn't take long, did it! :) Ashenden: A Novel by Elizabeth Wilhide is about a 250-year-old English country house. I absolutely love books about houses! This is Elizabeth Wilhide's debut novel, although she has written many, many books on interior design.
ReplyDeleteElizabeth Wilhide was originally born in the United States, but has lived in London since 1967 with her husband and children.
