It's the first Wednesday in the month again. So, it's Books
You Loved time.
Books
You Loved: October was another great collection. Some reviews that caught my eye were:
Melissa from Chick Lit Central reviewed After
You by JoJo Moyes. Her review
said 'I can tell you
this...I really enjoyed it. I found myself laughing out loud a bunch of times
and cheering Lou on throughout the story'
Elizabeth of Silver's
Reviews brought us The
Paris Key by Juliet Blackwell.
She said 'THE PARIS KEY has you falling in love with the City
of Lights as Ms. Blackwell describes the bakeries, the wine, the cheese, and
the people. Ms. Blackwell’s writing style is
so intriguing that you feel as though you are right there.'
For something different, try Doodle
Lit by Jennifer Adams and Alison Oliver. Thanks to Jo Ann Hakola of Journey of a
Bookseller for telling us about it. She
said 'There are quotes from
Shakespeare and other classic tales along the way. You can doodle, draw,
color, decorate and more. There's even a paper doll with dresses you can
color, add sparkle and glitter or? The pages are perforated, so they can
be removed from the book. Perfect for giving each child a page or display
on your fridge'
The
Royal We by Jennifer Cocks and Jessica Morgan was added by both Books
I Think You Should Read and Sarah's
Bookshelves. Elizabeth said 'This is definitely Kate Middleton fan fiction, and
I have no problem with that' Sarah said 'It’s fun, cheeky, and romantic (but
not overly cheesy)! It pokes fun at the idiosyncrasies of the British
monarchy'
Now for the November
collection. Remember the post doesn't
have to be a recent one and the book doesn't have to have been recently
published or read. The only requirement
is that it is about a book that you loved.
To add to the list just pop the name of the book (and
your name/blog name if you like) into the first Mr Linky box and then copy and
paste the url of your post about it into the second box.
I'll be pinning your links to this
Pinboard to make it easier for you to check them out at a glance.
I hope you discover some great books to read – I always
do!
Two entries this month. Thanks as always, Carole.
ReplyDeleteThanks again, Carole. Just linked 'The Keeper of the Bees' by Gene Stratton-Porter.

ReplyDeleteI added two from my October reviews - both audios. Thanks for the links to other 'loved' books.
ReplyDeleteSomehow I missed this post going up. Just added to the linky!
ReplyDeleteHello there, Carole,
ReplyDeleteWell, I chose another book by Norah Lofts as my favorite book for November, which also just happens to be a reread for me from over twenty years ago.
Thank you for this monthly meme, Carole - it's so much fun! See you next month :)
