I recently ran across this little journal that I got for my birthday in 2010. I only bothered to write reviews for the first 2, haha. This is what I was reading:
A Caribbean Mystery (Miss Marple #10) by Agatha Christie
⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
I made the mistake of seeing the TV version first. So, I already knew the solution. Still, an engaging Miss Marple story.
Inkheart (Inkworld #1) by Cornelia Funke, Anthea Bell (Translator)
⭐ ⭐ ⭐ ⭐
Rather long and rambling with a very quick resolution. I loved all the quotes from various books and the many literary references – some of which I got, others I didn’t. This book made me want to read many more books – something I LOVE.
Julie and Julia by Julie Powell

My Life in France by Julia Child, Alex Prud’Homme

Austenland by Shannon Hale

I love mini reviews. I still haven’t read an Agatha Christie book, but have some lined up for this year. I will be reading And Then There Where None and then will start on the Miss Marple series since I own the set.

Oh good, because I’m terrible about writing long reviews, so I’ve got lots of mini review posts lined up. 🙂 I’m in the middle of reading all the Poirot books and short stories in publication order. This involves a lot of re-reading but I want to make sure I’ve read them all. I’m planning to read all the Miss Marples when I’m done with Poirot. And Then There Were None is the one I always recommend to new Christie readers. It’s an excellent stand-alone!

We were just talking about Gabriel Betteridge, the major domo in The Moonstone, and his Robinson Crusoe book. Love most of Collins’ books.

I’m definitely due for a re-read!

What a fun little journal! I just keep a Word document of all the books I’ve read but I don’t provide reviews. I don’t think my journaling would last long if I tried to do that!

I is a cute journal, but Goodreads really does work better for me. I don’t review everything, but I give a short review for at least half. 🙂
