October Books
It is a new year, it's 2021, we
are now out of lockdown, but I am still finding time to read.
As I managed 152 books in 2020, I
thought I would up the ante and go for 155 in 2021. Between January and September, I was able to read 117 books and now October
has ended I am up to 132 as I read 15 books this month – seem to have got my
reading mojo back. Also, I was on holiday so had more time to relax and read
books. Now I have another 23 books to read more at the end of the year and
reach my target.
So what 15 books have I read this
month?

Multiple Arcs
The four books by Cressida McLaughlin are all from the Cornish Cream Tea
Wedding which is Book 4 in the Cornish Cream Tea series. I did not realise when
I read these four parts that they formed one book. I did not realise this was
book four in the series and may be tempted to go and read the other ones.
And you may have guessed that another series which I have been reading is
the Little Duck Pond Café series by Rosie Green. After reading the first one I
realised that there are 20 books in this series, so have a few more to read. They
are not great works of literature, but they are very entertaining reads – my
one qualm with them is that they make out that the only thing a girl ever wants
is a man, which is not true.
