    35. Vlad: The Last Confession, C.C. Humphreys

  2. I understand. I have both these books in my TBR pile and both look to be books I would love. Good luck choosing. :D

     

    Thanks, Pixie! :)

     

    Dracula is in my TBR list too, Mexicola, but I can tell you that Count of Monte Cristo is probably my all-time favorite book, so duh! I think you should read that one :lol::blush:.

     

    And thank you, peace for pretty much settling it for me. Count it is! :tong:

  3. I'm a big Chevalier fan and have to say that Burning Bright is certainly not my favourite of her work. It's a shame this was your introduction to Chevalier; if you do ever feel inclined to pick up another novel by her please make it The Lady and the Unicorn, I think it's brilliant (and I believe peacefield might just agree :lol:)

     

    Good review though, I agree with most of your points :lol:

  4. Alcohol wise, JD and coke. I also enjoy the odd White Russian, Kopparberg Pear Cider and Baileys.

     

    Tea, coffee and water is what I drink most days. I'm afraid I've also a penchant for coke, but I try and limit that to once or twice a week.
