Finally something completely different! And written within the last 100 years.
Compared to the Hugos and Austens and Dickens and Hardys I’ve been reading lately, this epic road trip novel was a refreshing and modern change.

52. Birdsong – Sebastian Faulks (100 book challenge)
‘It’s a great story set in France during World War I.’
If I had heard those words ten years ago there is no way I would have picked up the book and given it a go. But that’s been the best thing about this #100bookchallenge – it makes me read (and enjoy) books that would have never ever made it to my bedside table.

51. Tess of the D’Urbervilles – Thomas Hardy (100 book challenge)
After finally conquering Les Misérables, I needed something a bit easier to read. I had loved Far from the Madding Crowd by Thomas Hardy, so I thought I’d choose another book from the list by the same author.
And I was not disappointed!
