Talisman Posted August 7, 2013 Posted August 7, 2013 That Czech book sounds like an interesting title - it's a country I haven't done yet, so I will look that one up. Quote
Brian. Posted August 10, 2013 Author Posted August 10, 2013 That Czech book sounds like an interesting title - it's a country I haven't done yet, so I will look that one up. It's quite an involved book but I really enjoyed it. Quote
Talisman Posted August 10, 2013 Posted August 10, 2013 Sadly as happens all too often, it is not available on Kindle Quote
Brian. Posted August 10, 2013 Author Posted August 10, 2013 Sadly as happens all too often, it is not available on Kindle I had the same plan as you, to buy it on Kindle but I had to reserve it at my local library. Quote
Brian. Posted December 6, 2013 Author Posted December 6, 2013 Another book ticked off the list today, Broken April by Ismail Kadare for Albania. I really enjoyed this book and its fantastic that a challenge like this forces me to read thing that I would have otherwise missed. My review can be found HERE on my book log thread. Quote
