It's weird. Thank you so much, Rika. I tried to read as much as possible. No, I have not read the English Girl yet but I just read some reviews and it sounds really good! I put it on my list on Goodreads. Thank you! I often like the German covers better, especially when it comes to crime novels. Don't know what's up with that.

Congratulations on completing 8 books last month - that’s pretty epic - I would love to read lots of books this year! Have you read Silva’s The English Girl before? I still have it in my iBooks. I really like the German covers, it looks a lot better than the original cover….what is up with ugly English covers?!rikahttp://www.veganmiam.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976575256558816155.post-67197179766415085492015-02-09T15:16:32.069-05:002015-02-09T15:16:32.069-05:00Let me know what you think if you read any of them...Let me know what you think if you read any of them, okay? :)Katrinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06200118828260732172noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976575256558816155.post-7600116364873544352015-02-09T12:05:58.021-05:002015-02-09T12:05:58.021-05:00Ooooo...

And then you should let me know what you think about it. :)<br />Hmm, it's really hard to say how many books I read at the same time. I get a new book and then I start reading it but often I get distracted by other books and then come back to the first one a couple of days later etc. Usually I try to only read 2-3 at the same time but that does not always work out. But when I get really obsessed with a book then I only want to finish this one book.

I want to read more this year than I got to do the past years and I'm already loving it :) The first book I read was Melissa Hill's "A Gift To Remember" It's a book about a book lover with lots of books in it. Loved it! :)<br />Ich drücke Dich ganz ganz dolle und hoffe, es geht Dir gut! <3Beatehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14712395242968990000noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6976575256558816155.post-76625749177906412242015-02-05T11:13:36.982-05:002015-02-05T11:13:36.982-05:00I actually started to open an Etsy shop for costum...I actually started to open an Etsy shop for costumes and nerdy baby things, but then I just kind of.. stopped. lol.

I want everybody else to read this book. That only happens when I really really like a book! :)<br /><br />If you like the Jo Nesbo books then I think you would enjoy the Indridason novels as well. I have read a couple of Jo Nesbo books and I want to read all of them as soon as possible. The one that is set in Sydney was really good. I like the detective a lot. And you are right, I love learning about other countries as well. I am fascinated by Iceland which is why I try to read a lot of Icelandic crime novels. I also like the series by Hakan Nesser.

It is so much easier than setting up your own shop online, plus you are a part of a huge community which makes it easier to sell your items.
