This time I want to show you some of the new books I have got in Spanish but that are also available in English, so they will be reviewed sooner or later here:
House rules (Jodi Picoult): I have already read it and I loved it. It is so different from what I thought it was about, but so thrilling.
The bronze horseman (Paullina Simons): I have read several positive reviews about this book and I think I will love the story.
Miss Pettigrew lives for a day (Winifred Watson): I neither knew this book nor the author, and then why do I have this novel? Because Leander sent it to me this week! She says this is what I call a “medicine book” – a book that makes you feel better – and that is exactly what I need at the moment. Thanks, Leander!!
And I also have promising novels to read on my kindle:
Elusive Dawn (Gabriele Wills): this is the second book of the Muskoka trilogy, and I’m looking forward to reading it since I loved The summer before the storm (my review).
Finding Lily (Lisa D. Ellis): I got this book for review in a book tour (Virtual author book tours). I chose it because I thought I would like the plot, so I will tell you about the book at the end of May.
3rd generation and beyond (Danna Pycher): when Rebecca asked me to participate in the first book tour she is organizing, I said yes! Because this is her first book tour and also becuase she talked very good about this book, so I’m sure I will like it. My review will be out in May too.

Other things to take into account:
Weekday Readathon
Don’t you have a good plan for next Wednesday? I do, becuase the Weekday Readathon will take place on 24th of April 😀
More information at:
3rd generation and beyond book tour
If you want to become a tour host for this book, let Rebecca know it, because she is organizing a tour and there are still available dates in May. Check it here.
I am participating; I’m sure I’ll find the book be very thought provoking.
From Isi 
I read 3rd Generation and Beyond in no time – even wrote the review already 🙂 I hope you will enjoy it!
Me, too! It was so good!
It was inspiring and a quick read 🙂
Enjoy all of your upcoming reads 🙂 And the read-a-thon too!!
Some great new books! I have wanted to read Miss Pettigrew for a long time. Maybe I will after I read your review…
Mel: wow, you are very fast!! I think I will read it on Wednesday 😉
Jennifer: I will, I’m sure!!
Judith: so then I have to read it soon 😀
I read it in an evening 🙂
I enjoyed it
I think I will try to read it today too!!
¡I’m here Isi! As I promised ¡This is so much fun!
I don’t know any of the books, except for Elusive Dawn, but I hope you enjoy them all.
Also, I don’t have what “A tour book” is, but it seems really cool.
¡Love you!
Shanny,
A book tour is basically a digital book tour. Okay, that doesn’t help. I set it up so that on each day of the digital tour, one blog will host a review (or interview or guest post, etc). Then the bloggers and I push as much traffic to the host’s blog that day. It’s a win-win. The author gets the book promoted and the blogger gets the blog promoted, and a (hopefully) great book to read! 🙂
Thanks, Shanny!!
Rebecca has explained what a book tour very good, all I can say you is that it is very similiar to what we call a “joint reading”, but not only with reviews, you can also post an interview, a giveaway or whatever you want about the book 🙂
Isi,
I can only say, I love this whole post! 🙂
Thanks, Rebecca 😀
Leander is right about Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day – it’s a lovely story and definitely a ‘medicine book’! I loved The Bronze Horseman too. I hope you enjoy it!
Thank you, Helen.
Well, I’m looking forward to reading Miss Pettigrey, since you all say it is a great book!
Is the Watson your first Persephone? I haven’t read that particular book yet, but Persephone tend to publish some brilliant books, hope you enjoy it! Love the cover of the Picoult.
Yes, it is my first Persephone!! But I didn’t know the publishing house was important too!! 😉
Hello Isi – I hadn’t realised you’d put up a picture of Miss Pettigrew! As I said, there’s no hurry, but I do hope you enjoy it (and I’m glad Helen backs me up on it). Yes, Persephone do a whole range of books, mostly written by women, mostly in the first half of the 20th century. Simon at Stuck in a Book adores them and, I would imagine, has read the vast majority (http://stuck-in-a-book.blogspot.co.uk/search?q=persephone). I haven’t read that many other books published by them, but two others which I love are Mariana by Monica Dickens and Greenery Street by Denis Mackail.
It looks like you have *loads* going on at the moment! Enjoy all these books – I haven’t read any of the others, so will look forward to hearing more…
When I showed the book in my Spanish blog a lot of people talked very good about the book too, so I’m sure I will like it!
Thanks for the information about the publishing house, I had never heard about it. Women’s books, I like it! 😀
