Artful Readers Club

A new year a new challenge from Darcy over at Art and Sole. I have chosen my books,  some are paperbacks that have been sat beside the sofa for at least a year and others are impulse buys for the Kindle. The books are displayed on my bookshelf on the side bar. I have started to read "Sea of Ink" one of the Kindle books. It will be a challenge to read, review and complete a piece of art work but I am up for trying.

  1. I think the fun of this challenge is that we didn't have time to think about the books too much before listing them. Makes each one a real adventure :D XXX

  10. The last Telegram's on my list to read in February, because I've already started reading the 100-year-old man-who......... (long title). Enjoying that so far. The Hare with the Amber Eyes and the Song of Achilles appeal - a good title is halfway to a sale for an author. Looking forward to your reviews - what are you reading first?

  14. Thanks for comment. I agree with you about how much my range of reading has widened since I started downloading Kindle daily deals of the day - and at less cost than charity shops even. This ARC is great fun.

  17. The Kite Runner is an amazing book. I used it when I was teaching a Freshman Composition class. The rest of the list looks good, too!
