What are you reading right now?
Paein:

Ms4Tune:
Starry Eyes by Jenn Bennett
What was your favourite book this month?
Paein:
Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix by J K Rowling
Ms4Tune:
Only Book this month
Bloody Feud by Alyxandra Harvey
This series is pretty easy to read but I’m not that fussed by it. A Very Average 3 Voodoo series.
It would have to pull something spectacular out of the bag to ever be anything more.
What was your least favourite book this month?
Paein:
Christmas at Mistletoe Cove by Holly Martin
Ms4Tune:
Same as above
What do you want to read next?
Paein:
I hope to start re-reading A Court of Thorns and Roses by Sarah J Maas before the new year
Ms4Tune:
Probably Where The Light Gets In by Lucy Dillon.
I love her writing so I know I will enjoy it but it should be fluffy enough to not need to much attention.
(Something needed at the moment as work is busy in January and I’m also back at college studying – 1st exam is at the end of next month! I’m so nervous!)

Also, I got this months fairyloot because it sounded really interesting – but I was so disappointed!
Ms4Tune:
I was really disappointed to see that the government are planning to close 25 of the libraries in Essex in the next 5 years. Especially as my local one is one of those ‘earmarked’. I may not go very often but I do enjoy my 20 minute walk and hour of browsing and reading while I’m there. It would be a great loss if they do go ahead with these closures.
