I have several first books of the New Year - one is the new novel by Barbara Kingsolver, entitled 'La Lacuna', and the other is 'An Anthology of Odes' by Pablo Neruda. New photography books too - of Venice, and Greece and Mexico. So, I'm set for awhile I think...although that won't stop me from buying more! I'm running out of space.

Stay warm!<br /><br /> I've been loving the works of Kate Atkinson. I read her "When Will There Br God News?" and am now reading "Case Histories". I have another one of her works "One Good Turn" ready to go next! These are brilliantly written novels that happen to be about murders etc... You should try them.<br /><br />Best,<br /><br />David<br />http://www.globalaroundtown.blogspot.comAnonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00064021788741350871noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-688566251618947246.post-49113061202679772462010-01-12T05:54:13.236-08:002010-01-12T05:54:13.236-08:00My first book of the year?

I'm going to have to start that as a tradition for myself. My first book of the year was not picked with intention. It is simply a book on my shelves that is on my list "to read". It is called "The Memory Keeper's Daughter", well-written but a sad tale so far.
