Much belated book reviews (considering I read the first one on January 1st!).

( three reviews behind the cut )

Possibly I was having a moment of madness, but I have decided to sign up for ljbookbingo this year.

I'll try to have a catch-up on everyone's recent posts in the next day or two, I've not been online since the Thursday ( Read more... )
