I really, really wanted it but couldn't justify £10 on a book I would never use in a million years, much as I might want to.<br /><br />I really want to read Song of Achilles. It was so popular that I figured it would be popping up all over in charity shops... and it hasn't.

I really liked Beastly, I thought it was really good fun - though the movie didn't do it justice AT ALL. HOWEVER, it did have Neil Patrick Harris in it, so, y'know... swings and roundabouts.<br /><br />I'm really kicking myself now, because I actually ordered a copy of The Library Book just before the New Year, but it wasn't in stock. By 8 January I was feeling guilty and cancelled the order because, y'know, book buying ban - now I almost wish I hadn't! Though there is poetic justice in reading it from the library first, I suppose, if they have it! :)<br /><br />I'll be interested to see what you think of My Life in France (also wishlisted), and The Uncoupling (ditto), and The Song of Achilles (on Mount TBR), and Harold Fry (ditto again). Oh, and I really want to start the Myths books, they all sound so interesting but I haven't read a single one yet! ALL THE BOOKS! NONE OF THE BUYING! I'm going to enjoy your library exploits, I can tell. :DElliehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07246472269477492583noreply@blogger.com
