Talking 'bout Books in September, again.

This is a book I really liked a lot. So much more interesting than these two. 
Glitz by Louise Bagshaw (bad reviews on line)  & Miss O'Dell by Chris O'Dell with Katherine Ketcham (better reviews) which were ......... (in my opinion) .........CRAP..... 
 So now on to The White Queen by Philippa Gregory.

TRY Family History

New Blog to check out. Anyone (all over the world) interested in genealogy could you please have a look at TRY Family History for me. I will be adding post's about a couple of times a week. If you have any web sites you can recommend please let me know. I hope all the links work.

My latest discovery on (I think) my BECK side was this Codicil for John Beck in 1824.

Talking 'bout Books in September

Next lot of books to read. 
Haven't had much time this week - still reading 'Once Upon a Hill' by Glenn Patterson (very interesting Irish history), still dipping into 'Blogging for Dummies' (watch this space!) & haven't started 'Miss O'Dell' - see last weeks post.
'Walk the Lines' by Mark Mason recommended by Fresh Eyes on London (more London facts than you could shake an A to Z at!), 'Miss Savidge Moves Her House' told her house was to be demolished to make way for a bypass, she had other ideas & dismantled it & moved it to Norfolk - she was 60! The other book to dip into is 'Superfoods' (got to get fit!).
