Books 2011 - 7
Arabella - Georgette Heyer - nook - amusing.
Sisters of the Raven - Barbara Hambly - nook - interesting. The nook version has noticable spelling error, which I found annoying. Worth a read.
Powers - Ursula LeGuin - nook - decent YA. As always, good worldbuilding.
Jaran - Kate Elliot - I am not sure how I feel about this book. It's about a woman named Tess, and her relationships with 2 different men - her brother and another one. I find the different cultures fascinating, but I am not sure if the book should be shorter. It's worth taking a look if you like science fiction.
The Reluctant Widow - Georgette Heyer - nook - urgh. If the author was trying to make it clear that the heroine was okay with the things she was agreeing to, she did not succeed very well. There are hints, but it could have been brought out better. Do not recommend.
Regency Buck - Georgette Heyer - nook - okay. The bits in Brighton pavilloin are wayyyy to much description for me. I think the hero is an idiot; he could have explained himself. But then there wouldn't be a book would there?
Under the Duvet - Marion Keyes - a collection of essays previously published. Breezy style, and comfort read before bed.
Year's total: 137
