There is one reading day left before the 1956 club starts! I love these reading events (hosted by Simon and Karen), which encourage bloggers to spend one week reading books published in a specific year. 1956 looks like it’s going to be a great one.
The club runs all week so you have plenty of time left to join in. Here are some reading ideas:
Books from my archives:
Summerhills by D.E Stevenson
The Legends of Prague by František Langer
All the Books of My Life by Sheila Kaye-Smith
What I’m reading:
Spam Tomorrow by Verily Anderson
The Children Who Stayed Alone by Bonnie Bess Worline
Sprig Muslin by Georgette Heyer
We Made a Garden by Margery Fish
Some great ideas! Look forward to hearing your thoughts about your reads!
I’m looking forward to reading about All the Books of My Life if you get to it. I’m currently reading Speaking Of Jane Austen by SKS and really enjoying it.
I’m not rereading All the Books of My Life this time around but you can check out my old review if you’re interested. I’m so glad you’re loving Speaking of Jane Austen – I can think of few books that I’ve had more fun reading and rereading!
Verily Anderson is one of my favourite authors.She has the ability to make me convulse with laughter. My mother was a giggler too. Having lived in in London with two young children during the war “Spam Tomorrow”was her favourite. I love
“ Beware of the children” and still have my 1958 copy.
Stayed tuned then – my review goes up tomorrow! Like you and your mother, I found myself giggling throughout and really enjoyed it.
Spam Tomorrow sounds right up my street. Very much looking forward to hearing more about it!
I meant to shout more loudly about how much I love that Sheila Kaye-Smith this week.
The week’s not yet over! I’m surprised not to have seen reviews of it this week (so far).
