I'm reading The Island House by Posie Graeme-Evans. I picked it up because it sounded similar to River of Destiny in some ways. A bedtime comfort read.

I am still re-reading 'Storm of Swords'(very quickly) and this week bought Tracy Chevalier 'The Last Runaway' and Jodi Picoult's 'Storyteller.' It is my first Picoult novel. I think I must be the only person in the world who hasn't read her books.

Matt Rees' A Name in Blood, a story about a tormented genius, the hugely influential Italian artist Caravaggio. Enjoying it very much.

I'm reading A Storm of Swords: Steel & Snow by George R R Martin (the first part of the third book in the A Song of Ice & Fire series). Hopefully I will finish both parts before the show starts on TV!

The Iron King by Maurice Druon
Reissued ed., English translation by Humphrey Hare

I remembering seeing the 2005 TV adaptation advertised on the France 2 website but couldn't view any of the video features. Alas, for being outside of France!

I watched that series a couple of months ago, and it was great!

I have had the books for a while, as I found them on ebay for a relatively decent price at the time. I'll get around to reading them one day!

Then I'm in good company

...I think

...The premise of Picoult's book sounds good, but I hope it's not another lemon!

I finished Child of the Phoenix, which I enjoyed. Now starting Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children. Interesting title.

I enjoyed Miss Peregrine, Jane.
