how often does the letter l occur in:
it’s been a long time since i mentioned the books that i’m reading. 2015 was my “irish” year. i read 25 books and 14 of them dealt with ireland in some fashion.
if you are interested in irish history and irish lore, i highly recommend most everything that morgan llywelyn has ever written!
in the second list, i highly recommend those that are highlighted in green. the rest were either fluff or so-so. and the books highlighted in red, don’t waste your time!
i’m a bit amazed at the number of books i read this past year. in recent years, my norm was 10 – 15 books. but, many of the books listed above are shorter than those read in previous years. some i’ve read more than once. plus i began reading electronic books on my phone at night when i couldn’t sleep, and then i acquired a kindle in december, so i think that accounts for much of the increased read time.
next week i’ll list the books i’ve read since the first of the year.
hmm, our library has nothing by morgan llywelyn. i’ve been reading alex kava’s books – the maggie o’dell novels (out of order, oops) – and enjoying them, but not making enough time to read like i would like.
i looked up maggie o’dell – i don’t think they are anything like morgan llywelyn’s books! they do look interesting, though.
quite a list. i like how you rated them with a color code. excellent idea!
so, you like the kindle? do you feel you retain as much reading in that format?
roberta, i love my kindle. we had one of the first versions and i didn’t care much for that one. but this one is much nicer, very lightweight. and i love being able to adjust the brightness, which makes reading in bed at 2 a.m. much nicer. i haven’t really noticed any difference in my reading retention, but i have noticed a big uptick in the amount of reading being done.
