HD Books to Read
Huntingtons books to read
I love reading, and always have done! When I was a kid my mum gave me secret seven and famous five books she had as a kid, I still have these and hope one day i can pass them onto my children.
I have read some of the Huntington’s books, and want to read more so I thought I would let you all know what is out there!!
I have a blog post about Inside the O’Briens by Lisa Gevona which you can check out.
So just because I have read it, I have to say Inside the O’Briens is top of my list, the fact that they are making this book into a movie makes me very excited!!
I found this book slightly difficult to get into to, but I always say this about books!! I really enjoyed reading it and recommend checking it out. I purchased mine off Amazon and it was not expensive.
I had another book about HD and had started reading it, I have lost it though and never got it finished. I brought these two books with me to America and neither made it home!!
I have compiled a list of books which are in my Amazon shopping basket, and as part of my 2019 New Years resolution I plan to purchase them, read and post a review for you guys! If you happen to beat meto it, please let me know if they are a good read or if you have read anyplease leave a comment.
*I did find more books with HD in the story but wanted to keep this short*
