I like big lists. Very ambitious! Good luck reading this week and enjoy Labor Day!
I almost fainted when I read your list! Have fun with all those books.
I’m reading September by Rosamunde Pilcher.
I adored The Shell Seekers and September. Enjoy!
I enjoyed your reviews of Darcy’s Voyage and The Miracles of Prato. I’ve added both to my TBR list. I really like the concept of the second book especially. I will have to look at some of the Lippi’s work again before I read the book.
For the King’s Favor and the Rowan Coleman book also sound interesting to me. I’ll be sure to look for your reviews.
Have a great week!
