ReplyDeleteThanks Jo, it's a fabulous challenge. I have another person participating with me by the name of Taryn. She doesn't have a blog, but she's read 1 so far.
ReplyDeleteWow, even more books to read!
ReplyDeleteHave you read 'The Book Thief' by Mark Zusak? It's a big book, but beautiful, and he's an Aussie :)
Yes, I have read 'The Book Thief' Selwyn, and I absolutely loved it! Haven't read his next one though, have you?
ReplyDeleteI didn't know he had another one out. I know he's in the process of writing one - what new have you?
ReplyDeleteAhem *news*.
ReplyDeleteI was thinking of 'I Am The Messenger' but I just checked and turns out he wrote it before 'The Book Thief'.
ReplyDeleteWill be looking forward to his next one for sure.
