OK, so Summer seems to be the time when we
lose ourselves in our books.
For some it's the only time they
really get to indulge in reading.
For others like me, I constantly have my head in a new
book; my Husband is often saying there's not enough room
for both him and my books (but he knows better than to make me choose;-)
Actually the new cottage I have just bought in the English
countryside has a gorgeous summer house in the garden,
and that is going to be my reading nook.
It was either "man-cave" or reading nook.
Guess which one won? ;-)
But here's the thing. I tend to only read non-fiction.
Here's what I am reading at the moment-both
of which I highly recommend
I can sit for hours flicking through cookbooks.
I LOVE cooking and so this is a great way for me to relax.
This is a new book I am loving as I explore Middle Eastern
cookery/food.
OK, but here's the thing. In the Summer I do like to indulge
in some fiction and take my foot of the gas a little with the "heavy
stuff" ;-) But I'm a little stuck at what to read.
So I'm reaching out to my lovely friends here and asking,
"what fiction books would you recommend to me?"
I need a book that grabs you from the first few chapters (I'm sure
I have ADD). If I have to read 300 pages to gather what the book is about
I would have probably given up by page 200!!!
I'm open to any recommendations.
My fav genre's are: Psychological thrillers, stories about travel,
friendship.................anything BUT chic-lit or sloppy romance.
I don't mind some romance if it's got a good meaty story behind it.
So let me have it.
Tell me your faves
