Kim - Suprised me!
Not what I was expecting exactly, but I was almost instantly charmed and intrigued by this story. Fascinating look into old-world India.
The Man with Two Left Feet and Other Stories - Can PG Wodehouse ever NOT be fantastic?
Nothing to complain about- an interesting look at the many facets of PG Wodehouse's creative genius, including a few slightly (only slightly) more serious shorts. Still light hearted fun!
Secret Adversary - Charming and Witty!
Loved reading this- I had never ever read an Agatha Christie before, and this book absolutely charmed me. If you've ever enjoyed anything by P.G. Woodehouse, this book seemed like a wonderful mystery version of one of his hillarious novels. A little predictable maybe, but still thrilling!
The Virginian, Horseman of the Plains - The Virginian
I hope you have a chance to check it out.
The Virginian, Horseman of the Plains - The Virginian
Just wanted to recommend this book- it has been a cherished favorite of mine for many years. The descriptions of the plains and the great beauty of the wilderness alone are worth the read, but add to it a charming love story...Well worth the read!!!
(Although I will admit, the heroine does irk one at times.)
