Read With Me: The Casual Vacancy

The Casual Vacancy by J.K Rowling

This book is something that I wanted to read because I love the Harry Potter series by J.K Rowling and let me say that I really do have high expectations for this book because of the amazing job she did on Harry Potter. I know this is an adult book, but I hopeful that it will be just as good. I currently 37 pages into the book and it reminds me like the movies Valentine's Day and New Year Eve with all these mini stories that interact with each other. 

Description via Goodreads:

"A BIG NOVEL ABOUT A SMALL TOWN ...

When Barry Fairbrother dies in his early forties, the town of Pagford is left in shock.

Pagford is, seemingly, an English idyll, with a cobbled market square and an ancient abbey, but what lies behind the pretty façade is a town at war.

Rich at war with poor, teenagers at war with their parents, wives at war with their husbands, teachers at war with their pupils ... Pagford is not what it first seems.
And the empty seat left by Barry on the parish council soon becomes the catalyst for the biggest war the town has yet seen. Who will triumph in an election fraught with passion, duplicity and unexpected revelations?" 

Also this is goodreads choice 2012 winner....hmmm that says something(:

Happy reading and Happy midwinter breakkk!
