I'm just reading the Enid ones, I'm not sure I want to read impostor Enid Blyton and there are plenty more Enid Blyton books I haven't read! I'm planning on moving onto the St Clare's series when I've finished Malory Towers!Susie - secondhandsusie.blogspot.comhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16727933470111599594noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7203323287774911355.post-61479347535279266072016-02-17T00:01:53.114+00:002016-02-17T00:01:53.114+00:00I loved The Night Circus, and Series of Unfortunat...I loved The Night Circus, and Series of Unfortunate Events too, although I agree they do get samey, you haven't got many to go till the final one! Only Ever Yours was creepy, good though, I'd recommend it! <br /><br />Hope your library has lots of English books, I know my library has books in French, German, Italian, Polish and Urdu, Hindi, Gujarati, Bengali and more, and we don't live in a big town, so I have hope that your library will have English books!

Oddly, when I worked in Waterstones briefly, I got chatting to a little girl about this series and she told me she'd read eight of the series and still had two to go (or something like that) and I was all confused until the other cashier said that someone added to the series recently! I was a bit outraged but kinda want to read the newer ones too...Elisehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06873895703631876934noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7203323287774911355.post-52287857983611352492016-02-16T12:37:54.807+00:002016-02-16T12:37:54.807+00:00Ooo, Only Ever Yours sounds creepy and interesting...Ooo, Only Ever Yours sounds creepy and interesting, I'll have to keep an eye out to see if I see it anywhere. <br /><br />I'm unsure whether I want to join my local library, I need to pop by and see how much choice they have in English books and I might get a card if they've got a few to read. I've only just started to get really back into reading, since about November last year, so now I'm always on the hunt for something new to read. <br /><br />I'm currently reading The Night Circus on my kindle which I'm really enjoying and I'm slowly making my way through The Series Of Unfortunate Events, slowly but surely. I'm on the tenth book of the series and they are becoming a little repetitive and boring, but I'm determined to finish them. I thought I'd break up the reading with The Night Circus haha! <br /><br />~ K <br /><br /><a href="http://www.lifeasunusuals.com" rel="nofollow">www.lifeasunusuals.com</a>Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01456724545138273994noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7203323287774911355.post-39596153665336686812016-02-15T21:53:20.912+00:002016-02-15T21:53:20.912+00:00Libraries are great places for finding new books a...Libraries are great places for finding new books aren't they?
