So, dear reader, what are your favorite books that you got to read in 2016?
Oh! The ones here I have read are Death on the Nile (My first Agatha Christie!), and The Last Battle. I got a book of Sherlock Holmes for Christmas! Oh, the rest of those sound so good...
ReplyDeleteFun blog!

@MovieCritic, thanks for stopping by. It's so funny -- Death on the Nile was MY first Agatha Christie too!! I plan to read more by her in 2017. :)
ReplyDeleteHappy reading!
You have a lot of good looking books on your list! The only one I've read is Cinder, which I loved! I hope you have a happy New Year!
ReplyDeleteThanks for linking up on Saturday Situation. :)
I did read many of these books many years ago and loved them. Miracle on 34th Street--I still watch that movie on TV when it is on but never actually realized it was a book first!
ReplyDeleteOoh! So many good ones.
ReplyDeleteDeath on the Nile, The Last Battle(one of the best books ever :D), An Old Fashioned Girl(I also read that this year), and Cinder(again, a 2016 read for me as well).
Cinder was one of my 2016 reads (by audio). A couple of my favorite books from this past year were The Green Ember by S.D. Smith and Tolkien's Letters From Father Christmas. I've previously read The Last Battle and Miracle on 34th Street. I'd like to read A Man Called Peter.

@Deb, thanks for stopping by! Cinder was an audio read for me (I look forward to listening to more of the series in 2017!). Sounds like you have some GOOD favorites from this past year.
ReplyDeleteOh, I might try to read The Green Ember soon. :) I keep hearing about it!
I love, love, love the Flavia de Luce books. I think I've read 6 and need to catch up on a couple more that are now out. I hope you enjoy reading more Agatha Christie in 2017. I read her autobiography a couple of years ago and can't recommend it highly enough.
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed The Green Ember (coincidentally, also by audio) so much that I also listened to the prequel and sequel within the span of a month or two!

@Cath, thanks for stopping by! I appreciate the Goodreads friend request, as we appear to have similar tastes. :) I still have a couple more Flavia de Luce books to catch up on too -- trying to take the series SLOWLY. I'll keep in mind your recommendation on Agatha Christie's autobiography too!
ReplyDelete@Deb Watley, I had not heard of the sequel to The Green Ember. Thanks for sharing about that!
ReplyDeleteTARISSA! Wowza, do I owe you an apology! Somehow I missed ever commenting on this, but (horridly belatedly) I simply must because I am simply honored. Thank you SO much for including Emeralds here. I so treasure your support of all my books.
ReplyDeleteBlessed to know you as a reader and a friend!

@Rachelle Rea Cobb, no apology necessary!! I distinctly remember you sharing my top 10 list on Facebook... so I knew that you knew! :D
