I'm currently reading Kazuo Ishiguro's 'Never Let Me Go'. I must admit it's an unusual book, nothing I read about before. It's challenging but at the same time really interesting. Definitely recommending it if you haven't read it so far.

I am reading Rowan Wood Legends by Olivia Wildenstein. It is a young adult book and is the 2nd of the series. I didn't read the 1st book so I hope I'll be able to understand this one. It seems interesting enough.

I really like that book, it's so different. The movie isn't bad either.

I'm reading Going Solo by Roald Dahl at the moment and it's definitely different from Charlie and the Chocolate Factory but just as quirky and interesting.

I was looking for some light reading of the holiday period, so I just picked up Hello, Goodbye And Everything In Between by Jennifer E. Smith. I've only just began but so far I am enjoying it. I think I'll probably finish it in the next day or so.

I’m reading BECOMING by Michelle Obama for info about her life before, during and after life in WH

I’m reading UNHINGED by Omorosa Maginault- for fun to see her spin on why she became a DJT acolyte. Want to see how she posits herself and her contribution(s) in the administration.

I just started reading again after so long. I find myself reading self-help books (I think) such as Quiet Mind Epic Life and When to Speak Up and When to Shut Up.

I'm reading "On Writing" by Stephen King. My sister recommended it to me years ago. And for good reasons. Even if you don't aspire to become a writer, at least so far, it's an amazing read.

I am about to read "Health tips, Myths and Tricks" and I expect to learn something new from this book. It belongs to the non fiction genre.

I just finished murder in memory. I would recommend it - it was suspenseful and an interesting story. I just started reading the expansion. I am enjoying it so far.

At the moment I am reading The Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society it is quite good and I recommend it for anyone into war and conflict, but also romance. Young Adult Novel is what I should call it, but it is way too good for just Young Adults.
