Just finished The Martian. It was recommended by many people. In fact, one blogger I follow called it her favorite book of the year! I have to say it was darn good. I would highly recommend it, too.

I read the first in the trilogy by Kate Kerrigan last year. The Wednesday Group looks like fun, also First Frost, both on my wishlist. I’m not sure about the Martian, but if I stumble across it in the library or library systems’ ebooks, I will try it. Thanks for a good post!

Hi Mary,
A couple of your books caught my eye this week. In fact they are both the titles from your ‘currently reading’ selection, ‘The Gift’ and ‘The Wednesday Group’, so I shall look forward to reading your take on these two stories.
Have a great reading week,
Yvonne
