I have books!!!
The summer holiday is nearly here and so i have been preparing my entertainment: BOOKS!!! I intend on having books stacked to my eyeballs and my first 6 arrived today, with 4 others i ordered due anyday now. Arriving today is:
- The enchantress of florence by Salman Rushdie

And the book si plan on ordering very soon are:

That will probably take me till about October and then i'll be ready for my long Winter evening lot!!!
Now, the significance of all this seemingly useless information is that i'll be posting my reviews and thoughts of all these books as i go along. Throughout this blogs creation i've been reading away but then leave it too late to write a review on it. This issue exists no more as i intend to keep you guys up to date with my mini thoughts as i go and then end with a nice fat review for you to enjoy at the end.
Has anyone already read any of these books and fancy telling me their opinion?
