      Haha! I think the sum wore itself out with tha little bit of shining and has gone away again - the weather has gone back to being overcast and drizzly.

      Have a great week Natalie :-)

    The Secret Garden is a great read! Have you watched the movie (or series)? It's just little heartbreaking to watch though. I'm not familiar with some of your haul but The Bell Jar sounds real ominous HAHA.

    My week's haul

    LOL I do love your picture of 'middle of no-where' , I feel sometimes I have too much going on. Mind, every week is the same though with work, going home, laptop sleep, work, going home…… Oh Sylvia Plath, I really ought to read her one day.
    Have a great week and Happy Reading.

    Looks like you got some great books this week! I reread The Secret Garden last summer and was surprised by how much I loved it. Love your middle of nowhere picture! Hope this week gets a little more exciting but maybe no more sunburns!
