Another Enthralling Read...

I've started The Spanish Bow by Andromeda Romano-Lax! Oh, what luck-- another one that I'm falling in love with! On the first page, I knew that I'd be reading this one without interruption, and I'm almost half-way through now. Another one from Anna at FSB Associates! Here is a link that has some of the music the author listened to as she wrote and here, a link that explains her inspiration.

  1. Ooh so good to hear this! I got an ARC of this one so I'm glad to hear you are enjoying it.

  2. Sounds really good. I'm going to resist adding it to my list until you finish. I know I'm displaying unheard of heroics, but I can be strong. (I can be, I can be, I can...)

  3. iliana -- I think we will hear more from and about this author. She's good!

    booklogged -- I've got 2 copies and would be delighted to send you the uncorrected proof that Ana sent right before sending the hard back. Let me know...

  6. I'll wait to see your final thoughts, but I know that excitement from opening and book and realizing, "This is one I'm going to love." I felt that way about The Book Thief, from page one. It's still sticking with me, over a year later.

  8. Debby -- I'm almost finished now and still love it. Isn't the music wonderful? I'm so glad she did that as it adds so much to my ability to empathize.

    bookfool -- This one has been a great pleasure. I loved The Book Thief, too. Very different styles, but both are excellent works!

    Sam -- Yeah, I love following one terrific book with another one!
