  1. Lessons in Chemistry seems to be a popular book. I will have to get it from the library to read. Have a good new week. Hugs. Kris

  2. Great list....will have to add these to my To Be Read list! I loved Lessons in Chemistry, too. I also enjoyed Horse, by Geraldine Brooks; Lady Tan's Circle of Women, by Lisa See; and Remarkable Bright Creatures, by Shelby Van Pelt. My goal was to read my age...68 - I fell short and only read 48. This year I am shooting for 50 - a book a week. Happy reading !

  3. Great choices Julie. I started watching Lessons in Chemistry. Winter is a good time to read and relax. Happy week ahead.

  5. I really need to give Lessons in Chemistry another try. I didn't finish it, but it might have just not been the right timing for me.

  10. This is a great list of books! I did enjoy the Lessons in Chemistry book but I wouldn't have said it was my favourite. I was a bit unimpressed with the One Italian Summer book by Rebecca Serle, did you enjoy it? I preferred her book in 5 years, although I'm still wanting to read her new one when it comes out! :)

  11. Wow Julie, that's some list! I just joined the winter reading challenge at my library and I'm in the middle of two books now. They're a nice distraction from this blustery winter weather we're having!
