February

Under The Hawthorne Tree - Marita Conlon McKenna
A kids' book about the famine in Ireland, which later became a series of books and a TV series.
Very sweet and very sad.








The Complete Polysyllabic Spree - Nick Hornby
Loved this. I'll post a proper review on Overdue.




















The End - Lemony Snicket
WTF?! I feel gypped! 13 freakin books! And NO ending. OK, OK, the world's a terrible place where people don't really have happy endings, I get it. But there were THIRTEEN books. And I read them ALL. And I CARED. And I want to know what the bloody hell was going on! I want the bad guy dead or in prison. I want the orphans adopted by Daddy Warbucks. I want JUSTICE, dammit.
They should put on the cover, 'WARNING, does NOT contain spoilers'.


February has been a pretty terrible reading month. I couldn't get into anything or make myself sit down and turn the TV off. I blame the weather. Roll on reading on a picnic blanket in the sun.
