I always think it is great to read books in groups or read alongs too.<br /><br />Hi Nadia - I haven't met a Woolf book I haven't loved yet!<br /><br />Hi Frances - I'm so glad I could help warm you (we don't need any help with that in this part of the world at the moment!). I'm definitely getting the H Lee biography too.<br /><br />Hi booksnob - The Hours is another one I have at the moment which I didn't include here because I have borrowed it from my library - I'm really looking forward to it.<br /><br />Hi adevotedreader - I had an idea you would be a lover of Woolf's work. Thanks for these suggestions which I am adding to my list.<br /><br />Hi Bloomsbury Bell - I am so jealous!! Studying Woolf and writing your thesis would have been an amazing experience! What was your specific topic - I would love to hear more!<br /><br />Hi anothercookiecrumbles - I hope my enthusiasm and my reviews tempt you to move on to more Woolf reading!<br /><br />Hi Simon - I can't wait to hear more...<br /><br />Hi stockdove - I know I definitely had those doubts and fears before I started reading her. I think reading in a group way has helped me connect more with the books too.<br /><br />Hi Jane - thank you so much!!Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15971901652392645980noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1433153409320048017.post-879869312135837452010-02-11T10:39:54.211-08:002010-02-11T10:39:54.211-08:00That's an amazing reading list--challenging, f...That's an amazing reading list--challenging, for sure, but should be really rewarding. I like the immersion technique myself :)<br /><br />I'll be really interested as to who the S. Barron book is. I had mixed feelings about her Austen mysteries, but liked her thrillers.<br /><br />btw, I've given you the Prolific Blogger award.

I must re-read it! I'd also recommend its loose sequel Three Guineas and Woolf's other non ficton (especially the Common Reader essays, whcih are all about books) and her novel Jacob's Room, a very affecting study of a young soldier and his family.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1433153409320048017.post-34494379420504991632010-02-10T07:01:39.174-08:002010-02-10T07:01:39.174-08:00I am jealous and want to read all of these...but n...I am jealous and want to read all of these...but now I am reliant on the library it makes it much harder to be able to choose my reading material.

The only book I might add to that pile is the Hermione Lee bio. <br /><br />And I also plan on reading Vanessa and Virginia for the group read. Should be fun as many are joining in for that one. See you on Friday for Orlando.
