For the final Challenge, I’ve decided to go with a list of books that I have read. There are people, I am sure, who will judge me harshly for some of the titles on this list: you may do as you please, as I will read what pleases me…
The following are in no particular order – they are just books that have stayed with me after I read the last page, for good reasons and bad reasons.
- Jane Eyre – Charlotte Bronte
- The Twilight series – Stephenie Meyer
- Four – Veronica Roth
- The Divergent Series – Veronica Roth
- Captain Blood – Rafael Sabatini
- Rebecca – Daphne du Maurier
- The Scarlet Pimpernel – Baroness Orczy
- Persuasion – Jane Austen

- Midnight Sun – Stephenie Meyer
- Mansfield Park – Jane Austen
- The Lost art of Keeping Secrets – Eva Rice
A great, big THANK YOU, to Kathleen, for putting together the June Challenge. I’ve been pushed out of my comfort zone on numerous occasions, but I think it has made me a better writer.
I have thoroughly enjoyed interacting with and getting to know people through this challenge. And I am grateful to all of you, who visited, read, liked and commented.
Much love to you all…
