Mailbox Monday hosted for January by Alyce from At Home with Books.
This is my last week in Melbourne. I leave on Sunday back to Colombo. The books that I got from the library were
All these books have been selected because of book blogger's recommendations and reviews. I have already finished The Kashmir Shawl and this would be my second book for the 2012 South Asian Challenge.
Presently reading An Accomplished Woman - a cross between Georgette Heyer and a bit of Austen thrown in!
I am very keen on the Daphne book. There was a movie on her and I missed it so this book was a real bonanza for me.
Awaiting me at home in Colombo apart from my husband is the undersigned!
I have never heard of these. Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteHere is mine
I don't think I can resist a book described as Georgette with a bit of Jane. I'll have to check that one out. The dog is adorable :) Happy reading!
ReplyDeleteI like the look of An Accomplished Woman. Bet you miss your furry friend as well as your hubby. :-) Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI'm always so happy to see people saying the books they picked are based on recommendations! It makes what we do feel so worthwhile!
