Will dance for books

[katiefoolery]

Welcome back and congratulations to everyone on surviving Christmas. I hope it was fun/crazy/lovely/hot/snowy/filled with family/filled with friends/filled with food/tick whichever apply. Now you can all rest in preparation for doing it all over again next year.

But now, we must move on to real life. And in my real life, a terrible situation is enduring: I do not have a book to read.

I need a book to read.

Neeeeeeeeeeeed.

Therefore, I am turning to my ever-reliable and intelligent and gorgeous and wonderful and have I flattered you all enough yet? flist. Please, recommend me a book. Recommend more than one book. Any genre, any style, old, new, fiction, non-fiction, one you wrote yourself... I don't care. Feed my need for books!

There'll be some left-over chocolate-coated peanuts in it for you all. :D

I definitely haven't forgotten them. In fact, I just finished reading The Lovely Bones (which I ended up being able to borrow from work) and that was the last book I had to my name. And The Time Traveller's Wife is on my list, too. If you come across any more good books, I am trusting you will tell me all about them. :D

Have you had a look at The Book Thief yet? I think it's written in a very interesting way and it's just a great book.
