I read less books than last year but I did still read some great books this year. These are books that I read this year but are not necessarily published in 2011.I have more DNF books than last year and I think that since I have now less time to read I don’t wan’t to waste that time reading books that are really bad. In no particular order: fiction The Confessions of Catherine de Medici by C.W. Gortner The Queen of Last Hopes by Susan Higginbotham India Black by Carol K.

So this hiatus took more time than I thought it would but I’m finally back.I’ve only read one book during this time and I’m reading the second but I hope I find more time to read from now on.

Back home

I’m back home from Holland and I had so much fun! I loved Amsterdam and the houses looked great. I could have spend more time there easily! We went to see The Royal Palace and historical museum. The Royal Palace looked amazing but I wish I knew more about Dutch history. The lightning didn’t always work well with my camera but I still got quite a few photos and I think took photo from every room. Only the first floor was open to public. We nearly missed visiting the palace because we didn’t check which days it’s open. Stupid right?… Read more »
