Rennie's Chunky Challenge

Recommended Posts

I have quite a few rather large books on my shelf so I thought that I would join the challenge. I thought that I would include books with over 450 pages since these books look quite large to me.

 

I don’t know if I will be able to read a large book every month but I will do my best to get through a few before the end of the year. So hear goes!:)

I have finished A Breath of Snow and Ashes by Diana Gabaldon. This was the 6th book in The Cross Stitch/Outlander series and I loved it. I had put off reading it because of its length and because I had thought that the series was going down hill a bit, but this book saw Diana Gabaldon right back on track. Although glad to have made it through the 979 pages I still I felt quite sad when it finished. Will there be a 7th book? Oh I do hope so.

Thanks for the recommendation Niceguy. Until I Find You

is not on my mount TBR, but I will keep it in mind for another time.:D

 

 

I have decided to read Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows since I have it, and want to read it before I tempted into the threads about it. At just over 600 pages I am hoping it will be a nice easy read.
