    Hope you have a great week.

  6. Happy New Year! My post reflects two weeks of reading. Please come see what I'm reading now.

    Good luck with your challenges.

  7. The Bookseller of Kabul may be the first book I read by that author-I have read all her books. I just started The Night Circus, The cover on The Thorn and the BLossom reminds me of the tapestry The Lady and the Unicorn.

  8. You had a nice week it looks like. I'll be watching for your review on The Night Circus. Enjoy your Gone With the Wind readalong and the rest of your reading!

  9. My first time reading Gone with the Wind was just a few years ago – it's a fantastic experience, and it's so good you are experiencing it at an age that can appreciate it more!
