IT'S MONDAY! WHAT ARE YOU READING?

2a


Just one book in the house - Barbara Vine's The Blood Doctor


The Blood Doctor

rather a dull cover but an anything but dull story. Henry - doctor to Queen Victoria (one of her doctors) and a really double/triple personality to boot. 

Its rather staid reading so far, but you know that you are in the depths of a mystery somewhere which is going to turn up now! Halfway through and enjoying the slow pace.

    I'm curious about The Blood Doctor, there's not a lot on offer centered around Queen Victoria, looking forward to your review.
    Have a great week and hope more books come your way :)

    Congrats on the tablet! Looks like your reading is picking up a bit. :-) Does your tablet read to you? I got used to the mechanical voice and love that feature so I can be listening while doing other things too.

    The Blood Doctor sounds like one you might like. I hope it continues to entertain you to the end. Have a good week!
