In the last couple of weeks I have finished another three books. Two on my Kindle and one hardback I bought for 50p.
First up is Rosie's War, a very good read and interesting book of an English Woman's escape from Occupied France and the trials she went through. If you enjoy true stories, and another view point of the war then this is a thoroughly enjoyable read.
Next is another Non-Fiction autobiographical read by Sheila Hancock and the experiences she embraces after losing John and how she comes to terms with both herself and her loss. I really enjoyed this book, her humour and her insights.
Lastly another Kindle download. The Secret River was another historical novel based on the relocation of criminals/prisoners to Australia and one family's struggles starting with life in London and then in Australia. I quite enjoyed this book as well, although it really is about their struggles. What I did find strange, which is not mentioned on any of the reviews on Amazon (including those Kindle edition reviews) is that my version repeated several chapters of the book at the end at around the 80% read stage...The book finished, there was a bit about another book, a sequel of sorts, and then the repeated pages. I don't know if this is due to just a faulty download, or in fact an error/bug in the kindle edition, but it needs to be fixed.
I am really enjoying my kindle. I never thought I would but have to say it is especially brilliant for me when reading in bed as I am not having to use both hands and thus can rest my right arm. Plus I like reading so much that it is perfect in that I can have as many books on there as I want, so have a choice of what to read at my fingertips. It really is just like reading a page of a book, nothing like reading on a computer at all.
