I have read three fantastic books in succession

[Enid]

The Line of Beauty by Alan Hollingshurst
Any Human Heart by William Boyd -really fantastic made me cry buckets at the end

and have just started The Star of The Sea by Joseph O'Connor

hi wongster

do they have books in Oz?

also have The White Stuff by Simon Armitage waiting to be read..

wongeeeee!

No

just the plastic ones you can read in the bath. and ones by the wiggles.

actually ther eare five books in Australia, the rest of us have to make to with a system of semiphore and beacons from those who have been lucky enough to read them

I have said thsi before but if you like Line of Beauty, early Hollinghursts even better, also try Edmund White...

just ordered line of beauty as well as other stuff to get free delivery Getting the fish finger years (of whatever?) and Friday night lights for dh.

Meant to say thanks for recommending it Enid

Loved the line of beauty and Star of the Sea, so will go for your third recommendation too Enid. I've just started 'the amazing adventures of Kavalier & Clay' by Michael Chabon which i'm loving !
