Thanks so much! I already got this award and posted my favorite books about a month ago, but I’ll tell you here, my all time favorite is “The Christmas Pig” by Kinky Friedman
Thanks for dropping by!
Ooooo, I’ve never heard of that one, will look it up, thanks
Xx
Yeah, it’s a cute, touching, poignant fable (with some humor) 23 short chapters, so I read it every December — on chapter per night, leading up to Christmas.
xo
Awwwww, that’s a lovely tradition to have honey
Xx
Thanks for tagging me – I’ll post them on my site this week
Love your choices x
You’re welcome honey, I’m really interested to hear what books you love
Xx
Thanks once again, Vikki, for mentioning EMOTIONAL GEOLOGY. You’ve been faithful to that book since it was published in 2005! I’ve really appreciated your support over the years & the plugs you’ve given it.
Awwww, thanks Linda, but, that is because it is an EXCELLENT book!
The only book I’ve ever read in one day 
I saw a copy of Star Gazing at the BookCrossing UnConvention last Saturday. Was tempted to pick it up, but decided that wasn’t fair, wanted someone else to enjoy it. I hope whoever picked it up does and you get another review
Xx
I have one book I hold close to my heart – The BFG by Roald Dahl. A classic that I have on my bookshelf and I hope my kids read it too. I certainly hint at it all the time lol. My recently discovered new fave author is Chris Carter – he has written a 4 book series; crime, whodunnit – and I am itching to get my hands on his 5th book which wont be out till next year. Too painful!!
Awwwww, that’s sweet V
Yeah, you’ve become a bit of an addict for this Chris Carter. It’s not my kind of stuff but I will definitely look him up. Hubby does love a thriller
Lol, patience my dear
Xx
Congrats on your award. That’s a neat one. The only book you mention that I have read is Wuthering Heights. It’s nice to see your other choices.
Thanks honey
Xx
Wonderful award…not sure I can limit myself to five! Ferney by James Long, The Dome by Stephen King, The Map of Time by Feliz de Palma, The Forgotten Garden by Kate Morton and….too many to finish. LOL
Oooooo, thanks Mandy! Will check those out
Xx
Congrats!
Thanks Becca
