I will resume insulting and disagreeing with you after the festive season.

Lovely woman in waterstones i go to seems to have similar taste to me - I've started just asking what she is reading and if its any good

Flame · 26/12/2009 14:53

ooh read some of the reviews of that rachel heath one, it looks good

sunangel88 · 26/12/2009 14:56

Vlad by C C Humphreys. Apparently Brad Pitt's just bought the rights to it and hopefully will be making a film. V V good.

MaggieAnFiaRua · 26/12/2009 16:37

foosa it was you who recommended steve tolz book to me. mid november. i bought it, thinking 800 pages, that'll keep me going a while. but i finished it in a week. i may have spent less time on tinternet that week though!

MaggieAnFiaRua · 26/12/2009 16:42

I have made a note on my phone of touching distance and glasshoper

busymummy3 · 26/12/2009 16:45

mayornaze thanks for that I chose them myself for DH to give our 3 kids to give me for christmas and was amazed to see that small island is now on bbc shan't watch it though as i hate reading a book when ive seen it as a series or film much rather other way around.

TheFoosa · 26/12/2009 17:02

New Audrey Niffenegger also good, very different frpm TTW, but I like the way she writes

CoqAuVin · 26/12/2009 17:03
