What I Bought Myself For Christmas

Given the Christmas holiday coincides with a special day in my life, I decide to treat myself with a plethora of gifts. I bought a couple of scarfs, new jeans and books. A lot of books. I love mysteries, especially ones that are not based in my every day milieu.

Many of my favorite books are translations from other languages. I was reading Wallander series long before it was cool. Someday I must write about it, but today I wanted to share some of the new books I bought. You should try them: they are quite fun. Bad news: I am not blogging as much and staying up late at night reading this books. Good news: I am happy.

Happy Holidays everyone!

  • A Sea of Troubles by Donna Leon
  • The Wings of the Sphinx by Andrea Camilleri
  • The Girl Who Kicked the Hornets’ Nest by Stieg Larsson
  • A Florentine Death by Michele Ferrara
  • And then there is Dr. Gregory house_md3.jpegHouse, the modern day Sherlock Holmes who is a misanthrope of the best kind. It is my favorite show and it is a kind of sickness because once I start watching it, well I can’t stop watching it.

  • House, M.D. Seasons 1-5 downloaded via the iTunes Store. but the DVDs are better value for money. I wish I hadn’t downloaded and bought DVDs instead.
  • What do you think?
