Thanks to Vikki over at The View Outside for nominating me for this lovely award 🙂
The rules for the Booker are to list your 5 favourite books, so here goes:
A Patchwork Planet by Anne Tyler
House of Silence by Linda Gillard
Wuthering Heights by Emily Bronte
Fortunes Rocks by Anite Shreve
Larry’s Party by Carole Shields
I’m sure there are lots more I could have added to this list, but these are books I can read again and again. Right, now time to pass it on to:
Martina – A Deal With A Stranger
Emma Harrison
Paula Acton
Lynsey – The Dream List
Emily A Shaffer
No pressure to take part, guys – it’s all good fun 🙂 x
