The calendar tells me it's early March, the beginning of Spring. I happen to know otherwise. It's still very cold and wintry here and with snow showers and blustery wind it's hard to believe Spring has come. These days I am never very far away from a pot of tea. I warm my hands around a favourite cup and there's gingerbread too. Of course a new month means a new book as part of Laura's The Year in Books. This time it's The Light Years by Elizabeth Jane Howard. The first in a series it follows the Cazalet family just as the world stands on the cusp of war. I'm looking forward to starting it and if the weather continues its wintry ways I think some fireside reading will be time well spent.
Not seen this set of books before Claire. Popped over to Amazon to have a look at the right up and I think it's definitely a series I would read. Have added to the ever growing wish list. Happy reading.
ReplyDeleteHi Mitzi I started it the other evening and am really enjoying it so far! Know what you mean about wish lists....mine is ever growing!
DeleteI have seen this series pop up again and again in blog land and I think I will really have to start exploring it, too. It is howling a gale here, Spring seems a dream away but we've had a few glimpses now and then. Happy reading. x
ReplyDeleteI saw it in blog land for a bit too and the fact that there's more than one is good! We've had the same not-quite-Spring weather here (or do I mean exactly like Spring...) - perfect for reading though!
