31 books in 31 days- Twenty one achieved!

Twenty one

The mind thieves by Lori Brighton

Book two of the mind readers. Fantasy with a few twists and turns.



So twenty one books completed not thirty one . maybe I shouldn't have chosen a month when I was away { in Budapest} for four days, started a new art class, resumed singing and walking groups and knitted another bear for my niece, but twenty one books read in one month is not a bad total.

Two

Magic and the modern girl by Mindy Klasky

Second in a series but can be read alone. I love the zany characters. A loss of magic and attempts to regain her power causes untold problems in this engaging romantic romp.

Courbet connection by Estelle Ryan

I love this series of books combining autism, non verbal communication and detailed characterisation of a series of fascinating characters, all with an art theme but so much more. This one number five in the series was very dark. Internet skills and teamwork combine to solve the crimes and save lives. Each book can be read as a complete story.
