What, only 14 by Dick Francis? *cries with lols*

I need to read this Konigsburg one.

So in the end I kind of did keep it to an average one a month. :) Time to get started on this year's run!

You do, and I 100% wish I could find a copy to own that I could lend you! It's not even available as an ebook. :(

Glad you liked 'Think of England' *g*

Heh, between you and littlerhymes I'm going to be reading Dick Francis eventually, aren't I? This year I re-read a load of Christie so maybe he'll be my mystery indulgence for this year!

With you on the not-greatness of 'The Maze Runner' - such a good premise that went so nowhere. The author said in the notes in my edition that it was inspired by a dream, and that kind of fits?

Yes! You should totally start reading Dick Francis and join us :) Meanwhile, I'm itching to do a Christie reread...

Oh god The Maze Runner was so terrible. And even if it was inspired by a dream, a good editor should've made him fill in the gaps and rework the terrible illogical plot!! :p

That's interesting you didn't know Carry On WAS the fic of the novel! I loved Fangirl and my friend is persuading me to read Carry On!

You definitely should read Carry On then! Most reviews I've seen like it just as much if not more than Fangirl. :)

The premise of it isn't really my thing. But my friend and I are doing a thing where we send each other some of our favourite books that the other hasn't read, and she's sending me this :)
