Packing for hospital bag - any recommendations?

[sannie]

Hi,....

I'm packing my labour/hospital bag at the moment and would like to throw in a book just in case I get a few moments to myself :-)

Would love to receive some recommendations....the last book I read was "A Thousand Splendid Sons"...

thanks

Kite Runner is by the same author - have you read that? It is meant to be good, but I haven't read it yet.

Do you want some light and amusing "chick lit" or something a bit more "lit" than "chick"?

Good luck on the birth - hope it all goes smoothly

you got an ipod - what about an audiobook? might be a bit distracting or relaxing when you're going through the night early on etc.

good luck

Q & A by vikas swarup (sp) - serious subject, but lots of humour and almost like short stories so you can put it down/ pick back up when ever. i read tons bf my ds1 - sadly bf my twins my hands were full and tv was the only option!

Pathetic i know but mills and boon were great when i had my dds cos it didn't matter if i couldn't remember what had happened on the last page, they're all the same!

Diary of a house husband
might give you a laugh

definitely not The Red Tent by Anita Shreve

thanks for the tips defo prefer some light chick lit...I will get ordering on Amazon....

P.S The Kite Runner is fab!

shopaholic series is light and funny the first 2 are the best
