February Books...Sweet!

The Mistress of Nothing by Kate Pullinger
What a great book. Based on the true story of Lady Duff Gordon and her lady’s maid, Sally. The two women travel alone to Egypt, in hopes of finding relief for LDG’s tuberculosis symptoms. They settle in Luxor and life is good, but both women end up fighting for survival.♥♥♥

The Year of the Hare by Arto Paasilinna
Re-released in 2010, this sweet little book reminds me of Jonathon Livingston Seagull in hare’s clothing, living in Finland and without the sappy lessons served up seagull style. A special little book, a real jewel. ♥♥♥
