These Books Aren't All New??

Books are expensive. I tend to pick and review books that are both new & old. Many of these books you will be able to find on the shelves on your library as opposed to the front of your bookstore.

I believe that there are many hidden gems from years gone by & I enjoy highlighting those as well as today's best sellers.

The Wedding Girl, by Madeleine Wickham

Anyone who has read the Shopaholic series by Sophie Kinsella, will enjoy this book, by her nom de plume, Madeleine Wickham.

This book about a "good deed" wedding long forgotten about is charming, light and fun. The characters are all well rounded out (with the notable exception of the Godmother), and while there are many different plot lines whirling about in this book, they come together nicely in a way which didn't leave me rolling my eyes, or yelling at the characters.

This is a great read for a rainy day, curled under a quilt with a cup of tea or cocoa.

    Looks like a good read! I love Kinsella as well, but haven't gotten around to many of her 'Wickham' books yet : )

    I think you would really love a book I wrote called 'Knickles and Dimes'. It's a really fun chicklit, with hilarious characters. Check it out!
