BRITISH BOOKS 2015


This challenge is hosted by Fluttering Butterflies.
Challenge period: 1st January to 31st December, 2015
Sign Up: Anytime during the year

The aim of the challenge is to read and review at least 12 books by British authors. This works out to one book per month and as a lot of the books I read are by British authors, I see no problem honouring my commitment. You can read any genre, for any age group, old and new titles, out of print books; whatever you fancy as long as they are by British authors. There are prizes too! All the details are here on the sign-up page.

This is my initial list compiled from books in my reading pile, to be read in no particular order. I may even add to the list as the year progresses. Once read the titles will be linked to my reviews.
