[Felicity]

What I like to read....

• I read a Clive Cussler book with high recommendations from a poster friend a few years back but to be honest I wasn't terribly captivated and have never bothered with another.
  
  
• I loved James Michener's books - most of them anyhow. The first one I read was "Caravan" and I was hooked after that.
  
  
• I love true adventure stories. Ever read any of the stories about re-enacting voyages taken by ship hundreds of years ago? Awesome!!
  
  
• Stories of pioneers who went into difficult places; for example Alaska and suffered terrible hardship trying to cope with the hardships life there handed out to people not used to that environment.
  
  
• Stories of how the West was one. Stories about the Gold Rush or how the Pacific Canadian railway was built or about the Europeans and Asians who have come to Canada and made a life here. Real life stories.
  
  
• I like historical fiction.
  
  
• I like stories set in other cultures and foreign countries ..... especially if they're based on fact.
  
  
• I don't like cheesy romance thank you very much.
