"I wondered, for the first time in my life, if life was worth all the work it took to live. What exactly made it worth it? What's so horrible about being dead forever, and not feeling anything, and not even dreaming? What's so great about feeling and dreaming?"
- Jonathan Safran Foer (Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close)

Sign of a good book: when you are forced to look up from the novel that you are reading and it takes you a few seconds to actually leave the world of the book. The Games have just begun.

I had been so good recently about not buying more books in a month than I’ve been able to read. Until this month. This month, I have finished reading one book (The Lollipop Shoes). I have bought fourteen (ten of which are pictured). No more book buying until my totals can even out again!

I knew roughly what my next reads would be, until I saw my lovely Ava at the weekend and we swapped books. These are the amazing ones she lent me. And now my reading landscape looks very different.
