Thanks for the add! I enjoy seeing new books that other people are reading! I originally joined thinking that it would be a great way to promote my book, and while it is, it's also a great way to hear about amazing books that I was unaware of! :)

I'm looking for new interesting books at the moment...I usually go for classics, but I think I need something a bit more fresh if you have any ideas? Thanks for accepting the friend request! :)

Hi Brigid! I left what I thought was a reply to your comment, but it seems to be a separate message! I took a course on Ireland at Hampshire. Now I live there! :)
