Old Books: Shakespeare, Jane Austen
SciFi/Fantasy: the Crown of Thorns books - although reading them all in one go probably wasn't the best idea - I'm sort of burned out now.  I'll read pretty well anything that looks interesting - history, autobiography, fiction. Kathy Reichs, Deaver, Unger. I love the end of year lists that have reviewers favourite books - now I've got a huge list of stuff that I'll pick up at the library. |

Oh Mr. George.. How I love his work. I have stopped 3/4's of the way through his latest book because I don't want it to end!!! I'm going to be a very sad pink when I finish the last page.

May I ask; are you able to read Te Reo Maori? Many of his books are written with a mix of Te Reo Maori (no translation in some)and English which has put some people off and I appreciate it's not for everyone. A little unknown fact; Witi has a nephew Gary Christie Lewis who married Lady Davina Windsor, becoming the first Maori to marry into the British Royal Family. We get everywhere! LOL!
