I made another visit to a local charity shop that regularly runs five books for a pound sale. This is what I bought this time.
1) Pause by Daniella Marchant. How to press pause before life does it for you. Has a 3.79 rating on Goodreads.
2) The Secret by Rhonda Byrne. Has a 3.73 rating on Goodreads. I don't really buy all this Law of Attraction stuff, but I thought that given how it cost twenty pence, I would finally read the book. It also has something to do with a pair of boots I found recently.
3) Happy by Derren Brown. Has a 4.06 rating on Goodreads. I see a trend here. Three self-help type books in a row. Interesting.
4) The Meaning of Sport by Simon Barnes. Has a 3.78 rating on Goodreads. I like sport, so for 20 pence this was an easy pick. We will see.
5) A field Full of Butterflies — Memories of a Romany Childhood, by Rosemary Penfold. Has a 3.67 rating on Goodreads. The lowest Goodreads rating here. Having written a memoir myself, (well, the only book I've written) it is a genre that I like, a real life story.
So, plenty more to read and all five for a pound.
