Wel done Shin - I really love the sleeping baby one, it's so cute

Maria McCann - The Wilding

I often smell the books at the library and I put them back if they reek too much!!

Jodi Picoult - House Rules

There are several crimes that should be punished and I don't think that we should be lenient at all. - leaving a book open on a table- use a bookmark - not turning the page nicely, just pushing it over roughly - the pages should be turned from the top right hand corner one page at a time -writing in the margins - should be banned by law - deliberately cracking the spine - how would you like your spine cracked, not nice eh - turning a page whilst resting the book on your belly causing the page to bend or even tear at the bottom - go on a diet or use those hands to lift the book prior to page turning - doesn't take alot of effort

The Lacemakers was a very pleasant easy to read book. Now reading Elizabeth Chadwick - The Wild Hunt

Heather Barbieri - The Lacemakers of Glenmara

Susanna Gregory - A Vein of Deceit

Any one wanting to try a new author would not go wrong with S J Parris and her debut novel Heresy. It is about a monk who escaped the Inquisition in Italy and comes to Elizabethan England when being a practicing Catholic is a hanging offence. More twists and turns as a murderer in Oxford is sought. Any fan of C J Sansom will not be disappointed

Loved every page of Heresy - a fantastic debut novel Erica James - It's the Little Things

The hedgehog is cute. Main cross stitch looking good as well

I've only read the first 40 pages so far and I'm hooked! I'm a veryvery big CJ Sansom fan and I always buy his book on the day of publication if I can. Heresey is promising to be very much of the same vein - I'll let you know how it shapes up

S J Parris - Heresy

Katie Fforde - Love Letters

Emily Purdy - The Tudor Wife

Spent the day cross stitching. Here's an update. I have added a sparkly blending filament to the ribbon in her hair and I will use it in the skirt. http://yfrog.com/jqphoto0058wj

I've read lots of her books but my favourites are Death in Holy Orders Innocent Blood The Lighthouse

I read it last year and I enjoyed it very much. I have never felt disappointed by PD James and I'm sure you'll enjoy them

Finished at last!! Made a change to read a Stephen King book, but for my money I prefer James Herbert. Just starting John Saul - The Devil's Labyrinth

Now I'm struggling with this one. I haven't read a novel by King for some considerable years. I'm getting into it for a few pages and then falling asleep - mainly due to increased painkillers (back and other joints)Still another 200 pages to go yet!!

Half way through that one at the moment - not too bad.

I've never heard such tosh in all my life!! There's no guarantee as to what group a child will turn out to be - an AB marrying a B could end up with an B, or AB so what then abortion on the grounds that a child may be a B??

Stephen King - Salem's Lot

Fantastic picture

Hi Maureen. Jean Plaidy is fantastic and she is really the fore-runner to many of today's historical novels. Philippa Gregory was influenced by her and many others. I would thoroughly recommend them especially now that so many of the books are now being republished in more upto date covers. Her tudor books are all very readable and I think that you would enjoy them.
