I finished my book just in time, but I wrote the review today. It was Dracula by Bram Stoker, and I have to admit that it disappointed me a little. Check my review on my blog: http://thereadingarmchair.blogspot.gr/2015/05/review-dracula-by-bram-stoker.html

I absolutely loved Tim O’Brien’s The Things They Carried. Another successful spin for me.

Apart from today being May 7th, (8 days early), I had successes and failures.
I was not able to read my Spin title at all. I really did try but had to give up. The main character was driving me nuts with her whining, complaining and constant gossiping.
But I did substitute another title by the same author. I hope that is OK??
Below are the relevant links. There are other posts about the author as well, but I’ll leave you find and read them.

I have to say I was not looking forward to reading The Handmaid’s Tale, I thought it would be far too upsetting. It was, but it was also very thought-provoking and worth the effort.

Yikes! I’m all confused.. additionally so because I had gotten the 12th as the date. .. I’ll go with the 15th though 🙂 not the 5th, because I’m being a slow reader.
