SOPHIE HANNAH'S HURTING DISTANCE

[BitTiredNow]

Just finished it in a day - what a good read (of course, the little BTNs have had endless cbeebies and rubbish food while my nose was stuck in it.) Anyone else read her? Can you recommend anything else along those lines? Did NOT see the twists coming, and her prose was beautiful.

Hey you! I've read Little Face by her which was really good. Want me to post it?

hey you too!!! V pleased you're moving closer - shall we swap books?

i have just read it - fantastic!

real page turner and intriguing ....

loved this, though it was a very well written book

I loved it all the way to the end, and then I thought the ending was, well, a little trite I suppose.

I was expecting something spectacular I think, to match the rest of the book.

Would love to swap - I'll check your address with Mrs BT and send it up. I promise I won't be as crap as with the teething gel...

oooh just reading "Little Face" now. Its very good!!

I have read Sophie Hannah's poetry - and there's a collection called HOTELS LIKE HOUSES (1996) which I love.

I did make the mistake of going to hear her read her own stuff though - and she came across less favourably than her actual writing - seemed a tad arch and bitter, which surprised me.
