This probably won't be a habit . . .

I think it's fairly unlikely that I will become a regular Goodreads blogger, but every now and then I do feel like writing something. Hmm, that is, writing something other than the current books, stories and other fiction I always have simmering away.
I've been reading lots of old books recently, some old favourites like the Psmith and Uncle Fred books by P. G. Wodehouse but also some Anthony Trollope for the first time, working my way through the Barsetshire series and some of the Palliser books. Most of the latter I read on my iphone, while travelling to and from the UK for the Edinburgh International Book Festival and some events in the south-west of England. I think Trollope, who by all accounts considered himself a commercial author would be quite pleased to have his books read more than a century later in a new way. I shall have to bury a shilling to his ghost so he gets his share.
Now, back to my own work . . .

ladymurmur I've been reading old favorites of late myself, revisiting old friends anew on my kindle. By happy accident, my current read is Sabriel. :-)

Caeleigh I've been revisiting books myself lately, and Mister Monday was one of the ones on the list, the series to follow once I get schoolwork out of the way. I had an old book report I did on it I found and read and didn't for the life of me remember some of the points. Only way to remedy was a reread.

I hope you get some more writing done! :)

Connor Grummer The Seventh Tower has always been one of my favorite summer series. Read them while taking a trip around the country last year. Using the Abhorsen trilogy for my school book review this quarter. :D

JT You were definitely one of my top 3 adolescent authors, I loved The Seventh Tower and Shade's Children! 21yrs old now, but still love to reminisce back on those books. Love to hear what books your reading and then read them sharing in the thought that we both have read the same words...haha
