Mid-2009 to mid-2010 in Books.
~~Every link leads to an entry with basic information about the book, and my favourite quotes from it:
~The image I use is the edition I read.
~I tag the year of publication, unless the era plays a major part in the story and is different (e.g. a book published about WWII in 2001), in which case I tag both.
♥♥♥ = Personal favourites I recommend.
