weeks from 33 to 39

For the last seven weeks I couldn't write on my blog, but I'm happy to write, that I didn't forget about my reading challenge - I just need to write about all seven missing books in one post. Week 33 was "a book from your childhood" and I chose "Giancarlo wkracza do akcji" by Giuliano Amici . I remember, that I used to love it when I was a child - unfortunately, it seems that you need to be a child to appreciate this book. I didn't enjoy it at all. Week 34 was "a book that made you cry". I re-read "Cien ojca" by Jan Dobraczynski . I read it on a train and cried all the time - I'm sure I made the other passengers feel quite uncomfortable. The book was really beautiful and I enjoyed it immensly. Week 35 was "a book you own but have never read". I decided to read (finally!) "Shalador's Lady" by Anne Bishop . This book has been waiting on my to-be-read shelf for almost ten years, because I was ...

Leverage in Death by J.D. Robb

Reading a new book by yours favourite author is such a pleasure! Leverage in Death is book 47 in this series and reading it is like coming back home for me - I know and love all the main characters, I always enjoy the story and it's always a five-star read for me.  This time Eve and Peabody had to face very cold and greedy criminals. The book begins with a man forced to kill twelve people to save his family and this scene was very painful for me. I couldn't stop thinking about it for a few days and the only thing I know for sure is that I hope I'd never have to make this kind of decision. The rest of the book was easier to read, it showed mostly hard, police work. There were many funny moments connected with the Oscar ceremony, and I simply loved the scene with Peabody who drank too much espresso.  I loved this book just as much as I loved the rest of the series. The next book, Connections in Death, is coming out soon - I can't wait!

Robb and I simply can't wait to read it! I love this author, I read all the books in the series so far and I loved all of them, so I'm sure I'm going to love this one, too. I'm so excited!
