Weekly Book Poll (April 25th) - Whatcha reading??

This past week I finally finished off the two books I've been reading. "Border Lass" by Amanda Scot was ok but definitely not great. It was my first foray into the world of e-books. While I loved reading on my iTouch whenever I had a spare moment I still love having my paper books. The overall storyline was OK but not a favourite historical fiction read for me.

I also finished up "The Forgotten Garden" by Kate Morton. It was a really interesting read. A mix of historical fiction from 3 different eras and 2 different people, fairy tales and mystery. It had it all!

Currently I have about 50 pages left of "The Help" by Kathryn Stockett. You'll have to wait for my book review to see what I thought of this book. :)

Next up? "Killer Heat" by Linda Fairstein. I thought I'd give the historical fiction genre a break and go for more of a suspense read.

What did you read this past week? What are you reading this coming week?

    I am re-reading The Summoning and The Awakening by Kelley Armstrong because I just ordered the 3rd one online from Chapters, I am soooooo excited to see how she ends this series, it was a great read!

    Hi Aleisha!
    I've read both The Summoning and The Awakening by Armstrong and really liked them. Like you, I'm going to have to re-read them before reading the next book. I've been reading so many YA supernatural books that they've all started to blend together.

    I hope you enjoy The Forgotten Garden. It was a great read. Look at my review of The Help. If you haven't read that one yet ... get it asap. It's amazing!! :)
