Life with two Smalls and a fistful of daydreams

Look! Books!!


New year, new start. I’m not one for resolutions usually because I’m rubbish at keeping them but that doesn’t mean I haven’t got a few aims and hopes for the year. I have filled in the Day Zero 7 x things for 2012 which are sort of resolutions and on top of those I would add that I want to get (and stay) a bit fitter.

One of those 7 things is to keep a book record and I have a reading journal winging its way to me in the post right now. They key point to this is that to keep a record I need to read. So here we go, this month I have read/am hoping to read at least the following:

Long Lankin by Lindsey Barraclough

War Horse by Michael Morpurgo

The Shadow Catcher by Michelle Paver

The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath

As I have already finished the first two in the last week – Long Lankin was AMAZING and I couldn’t put it down and War Horse was equally brilliant and also quite short – I feel I should add another book to the list as 2 books in 3 weeks should really be quite manageable.

So my ‘if I finish all the above’ book is: Do Androids Dream Of Electric Sheep? by Philip K. Dick (Which I am reading purely in the hope that it will make Blade Runner make some kind of sense…seriously, what on earth is the unicorn all about??!)
