Olga Jones posted a blog postCedardale Court by Nathan Lee Christensen
Cedardale Court is a neo-gothic murder mystery with enough fools and old flames to keep you happily mixed up for most of a long weekend. When Canner Connelly and his daughter, Chloe, move in with their Uncle Henry, and a simple drainage problem turns a normal Sunday morning into a slightly darker affair, it's not easy to tell where everyone might end up, or if they'll even make it at all.My review: When Mr. Christensen…See More

Award-winning, internationally acclaimed author Anita Desai ruminates on art and memory, illusion and disillusion, and the sharp divide between life’s expectations and its realities in three perfectly etched novellas. Set in India in the not-too-distant past, the stories’ dramas illuminate the ways in which Indian culture can nourish or suffocate. All are served up with Desai’s characteristic perspicuity,…See More

Olga Jones posted a blog postA Spy a At Home by Joseph Rinaldo

Not the easiest thing for a guy who spent most of his life under-cover, especially since his past life is never really in the past - the quiet, frugal family is hiding millions of dollars in an off-shore account and terrorists whose money Garrison stole are after them. And what will happen to Noah if both…See More

But a storm is approaching, an army of Iron fey that will drag me back, kicking and screaming. Drag me away from the banished prince who's sworn to stand by my side.

My Sweet Saga by Brett Sills
At nearly 30 years old, Brandon is barely able to make it through life, much less enjoy it. He is weeks away from what should be one of the happiest days of his life, his wedding day to his fiancée, Clarissa, but death itself seems more enjoyable than the prospect of spending the rest of his life with her.
Desperate for even a brief escape from his reality, Brandon…

BloggerLouise Jolly said… Hi Olga:
I was just reading our blog and feel ours are quite similar. Mine is a book review blog only and you can have a peek at: http://bookbaglady2.blogspot.com
I signed up as a follower on your blog too!
I see under Books for 2011 you have listed two of my favourties: "Memoirs of a Geisha" by Arthur Golden and "Pillars of the Earth" by Ken Follett. Did you not read the sequel to Pillars of the Earth called "World Without End" because it too was fantastic and as good as Pillars. You should give it a try.
Cheers,
Louise
