It's Monday. What Are You Reading?
I have a train journey into Aberdeen and back today as youngest son has another appointment at the orthodontist - not complaining though as it means a day off work!
I will be taking One Hundred Names by Cecelia Ahern. I usually love her books as they are a bit different and "other worldly" but it is taking a while to get into this one. I will take my Kindle with me just in case I feel the need to read something else.
The uplifting and thoughtful novel from the uniquely talented author. Everyone has a story to tell...Journalist Kitty Logan's career has been destroyed by scandal, and she now faces losing the woman who guided her and taught her everything she knew. At her mentor's bedside, Kitty asks her - what is the one story she always wanted to write? The answer lies in a file buried in Constance's office: a list of one hundred names. There is no synopsis, no explanation, nothing else to explain what the story is or who these people are. The list is simply a mystery. But before Kitty can talk to her friend, it is too late. With everything to prove, Kitty is assigned the most important task of her life - to write the story her mentor never had the opportunity to. Kitty has to not only track down and meet the people on the list, but find out what connects them. And, in the process of hearing ordinary people's stories, she uncovers Constance's - and starts to understand her own...
Pop over to The Book Journey and see what everyone else is reading today.

Today will be a busy day for you, so I hope the book picks up and you don't have to resort to the Kindle!
Here's my It's Monday! What Are You Reading? Hope you will stop by and share your thoughts.
I haven't read that one yet. I agree some of her stories are bit harder to connect with.
I haven't read any Ahern but I keep hearing good things about her books. I hope you're enjoying it :)
Have a great week!
I haven't read any of Ahern's work but One Hundred Names sounds like a good read. I look forward to your thoughts on it. The cover art is lovely. Have a great week!
