What's on my bookshelf :: #1


I've been in a reading rut lately. I keep starting books, getting a few chapters in and then giving up or just completely forgetting all about them. So at the beginning of the month, I pledged to actually read a book cover to cover and maybe by posting about it on this space, I'll read another one next month. 

I think the last book I finished was Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn, which I loved! Still haven't seen the movie though, have you seen it? Does it do the book justice? This month I'm reading Wild by Cheryl Strayed. I'm reading this one on my Kindle, mainly due to the fact that I'm on a spending ban and it was already on there. I'm about half way through and so far I'm loving it. Without giving too much away, it's about Cheryl who is hiking the PCT (Pacific Crest Trail) by herself. The first few chapters are all about the moments is her life that led her to start this journey. Her tales from the trip range from hilarious to unimaginable and if you don't want to up sticks and go on an adventure after reading only a few chapters, I'd be shocked! 

At the rate I'm ploughing through these pages, I'm going to need some recommendations for my next read. Can you help a girl out? Is there anything you've read that you've really loved recently? 

P.S. The Kindle edition of Wild is only £1.19 on Amazon at the moment, such a bargain!
