I'll do these more consistently now.
Since June 16th I've bought 14 books and received 2 free books so I thought I'd go through them with you.
Waterstones Chiswick
The Light of Amsterdam by David Park
Composition No.1 by Mark Saporta
Shades of Grey by Jasper Fforde
Cloud Atlas by David Mitchell
Oranges are not the only Fruit by Jeanette Winterson
Amazon
When I was away on work experience my mum bought me some books I'd wanted for ages and sent me them via Amazon :) She's the best.
Catch 22 by Joseph Heller
Neverwhere by Neil Gaiman
Lutyens and Rubinstein is a lovely independent bookshop in Notting Hill in London. It is a two storey building with a nice collection of fiction, gorgeous non fiction and absolutely lovely art.
The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie by Muriel Spark.
London Review Bookshop is another two story bookshop but this one is in Holbern, five minutes from Covent Garden. It has a cafe (with a lovely treacle tart) and a really interesting selection of fiction as well as an extensive non-fiction section, especially History and Politics. It's very close to the British Museum.
We Need New Names by Noviolet Bulawayo
The Dinner by Herman Koch
The Illicit Happiness of Other People by Manu Joseph
Waterstones Piccadilly
You and I by Padgett Powell
The Newlyweds by Neil Freudenberger
The Flame Alphabet by Ben Marcus
Free Books
Some absolutely lovely people have sent me some free books this month: I won the Waterstones Card Read and Review competition for the Sequel to the Devil Wears Prada and the ever-so-generous Gemma Burgess sent me her book which I am so grateful for.
Brooklyn Girls by Gemma Burgess (out July 4th)
Revenge Wears Prada by Lauren Weisberger
