February 2008 Reads

[Wendy]

I read 8 novels in February - 7 fiction, and 1 memoir - with an average rating of 4.25. I read a total of 2554 pages (average of 319 pages per novel). My favorite read of the month was the memoir by Daoud Hari. New authors for me this month included Sadie Jones, Edwin Alexander, Sarah Waters, Daoud Hari, Monica Ali, and Toni Morrison. I would read novels by all these authors again.
