Re: How Many Books Have You Read This Year?

Less, that is a neat ploy to get the charity more money, but a nasty trick on the readers.

Just because I did not enjoy certain books doesn’t mean that others will not be entertained by them.
The other thing about buying from .charity’s shops is the publishers are sneaky.
They change the book jacket and I sometimes have bought what I thought were new books by a favourite author….when it is the same book as I have previously read in different frock.

I have a very wide taste in books….but I am not keen on murder books.
I look for authors as much as titles.
