Kate | 6 comments Have finished my first books for this challenge!

1. Scottish Journey
2. The Last Bear
3. Dances With Trout

Imagine my surprise to be reading Dances with Trout, thinking it was about fly fishing in America, when I came across a whole chapter on fly fishing in Scotland!

I'm glad one of the three books you enjoyed!

Ancestral Gaidheal (gaidheal) | 24 comments I've added The Last Bear by Mandy Haggith to my reading list. Thank you for your review of it and mentioning its commonalities with The Mists of Avalon. Although I am not a fan of The Mists of Avalon, I enjoy the genre.

Kate | 6 comments Well I certainly haven't been very prompt about keeping my list up. It's New Year's Eve, so I'd better get to it!

1. Scottish Journey
2. The Last Bear
3. Dances With Trout
4. How the Scots Invented the Modern World: The True Story of How Western Europe's Poorest Nation Created Our World and Everything in It
5. To Please a Lady
6. Outlaw
7. Tamed by a Laird
8. The Golden Straw
9. Wildfire at Midnight
10.


I've surprised myself! I didn't realize I'd read so many books that about Scotland. I missed the challenge by 1, but I'll do better next year!

Wishing everyone a very Happy New Year!
