I've got my nose between the pages of a book again - yay! And I'm darn proud of myself! It did take a while to find the right book to take my interest; and it was an author I normally find an absolute yawn! 'Last Night In Twisted River' by John Irving is a book I bought two years ago for my birthday when a friend posted me a QBD gift voucher. I took my time looking at the books to buy and knew that if I thought the storyline was good, I was likely to enjoy it; and I do. I'm reading up to 30 pages in about an hour each afternoon, so I should get through this very thick book quickly.
The next one is a light, funny, quirky romance novel I won on Romance Bandits (you can find the link to this site on the sidebar) titled 'Death, Taxes and a French Manicure' by Diane Kelly. It's about a Dallas IRS agent who is under cover with a partner when she falls for a suspect who is very hot, sexy and ... yes, he's hot for her too. However, she doesn't want to get too close in case he's more than just a suspect and ends up being jailbait. But he is very sexy! Will she be able to keep her hands off him? Let's hope so! I read this one when I want to have a good giggle and relax before I go to sleep at night as John Irving's book is chock full of information I'd rather read in the afternoon and Diane Kelly's light, fun romance is something to enjoy and relax with.
So, what have you been getting your nose into lately? Do drop by and leave a comment letting us all into your reading habits. Until my next post, happy reading! 
I am currently reading a nonfiction work called 'The Pig That Wanted to Be Eaten: 100 Experiments for the Armchair Philosopher' by Julian Baggini. I'm about 75% into this book and it is somewhat disappointing... Not what I was expecting, but in other ways very much what I was expecting.
ReplyDeleteWhat an interesting title! And isn't it disappointing when you find a great title and yet the content isn't what you thought?
