October Books

Posting late. Normally in a month, I add to my list of books read as I finish reading them. This frees me to get rid of the book. Although I readily abandoned books as I traveled, I didn’t make my blog post about them until now. However, I’m pretty sure I only read 3 books on my trip. I’m almost done re-reading Persuasion, though, which I started on my journey.

Anyway, here they are:

#38: The Court of the Air – a steampunk novel that really needed more tell, for once.

#39: Casting Off – A chick lit novel with knitting in it. It could have been better, but it could also have been a whole lot worse.

#40: A Scandalous Society – a history book I picked up in London, about the Count d’Orsay and his bizarre life of celebrity. Really good reading, and an unusual pick: I read it when I was really sick on my trip. Normally, I would have opted for more brain candy!
