I have committed to a Gone With the Wind readalong with my aunt starting around January 15. It will be my first time reading it. Go ahead. Get your exclamations of disbelief out of the way. :-) It's one of my aunt's favorite books (possibly even her very favorite), so hopefully she'll keep me on track. What are you reading this week?
I have an affiliate relationship with Malaprop's, my local independent bookstore located in downtown Asheville, NC; and Better World Books. I will receive a small commission at no cost to you if you purchase books through links on my site.
My first time reading Gone with the Wind was just a few years ago - it's a fantastic experience, and it's so good you are experiencing it at an age that can appreciate it more!

ReplyDeleteYou had a nice week it looks like. I'll be watching for your review on The Night Circus. Enjoy your Gone With the Wind readalong and the rest of your reading!
ReplyDeleteThe Bookseller of Kabul may be the first book I read by that author-I have read all her books. I just started The Night Circus, The cover on The Thorn and the BLossom reminds me of the tapestry The Lady and the Unicorn.
ReplyDeleteYou have The Thorn and the blossom? I want to read that one! :)
ReplyDeleteThe Thorn and the Blossom - love that cover.
ReplyDeleteHappy New Year! My post reflects two weeks of reading. Please come see what I'm reading now.
ReplyDeleteGood luck with your challenges.
The Thorn and the Blossom is getting a lot of attention at the moment. Looks very interesting.
ReplyDeleteHave a great reading week

I read Gone With The Wind a good few years ago now. I was surprised by how much I loved it. I didn't expect to. Hope you enjoy it.
ReplyDeleteI've never read "Second Hand Heart" but I've heard really good things about it. Several of the ladies in my book group loved it :)
