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

Gosh, you've already got a goodly stack going, but I'll add one more to the pile.

Have you heard of the Jane Austen Mysteries by Stephanie Barron? I know they're not real Jane Austen, but they're a light read, and actually better than you'd think. It's sort of a series (THE UNPLEASANTNESS AT SCARGRAVE MANOR being the first), but you can jump in anywhere.

I've only recently found them for myself - got one for Christmas, even!

I think I've vaguely heard of them but I don't really know much about them at all. They'll be added to the list. :)

Thank-you.
