DAY 1 - Favourite book you read last year (2010)


I cannot narrow it down to one book, So I will choose a favourite from each of my favourite genres to read.......


What Alice Forgot by Liane Moriarty - Contemporary fiction.  


84 Charing Cross Road - Helene Hanff - Classic.


Saving CeeCee Honeycutt - Beth Hoffman - Southern Fiction. 


The Postmistress - Sarah Blake - Historical Fiction.


I was keeping a physical reading diary back in 2010 and I have noticed I didn't read many Chick-lit, although this is a genre I love.  This last year has been very different and Chick-lit has featured heavily. :)




Day 2 - A book you have read more than 3 times.


I am not a fan of re-reading a book as a rule.  So, it would have to be a children's book I have shared with my older children (ages 17 and 15) and am sharing again now with the youngest (aged 4)


Green Eggs and Ham - Dr Suess.  Such nonsense but such fun!   My copy has a faded jacket now.
