  1. Finished Salem Falls today, another great read from Jodi Picoult that I throughly enjoyed. This one definately rated up near the top of my favourites. Still deliberating what to read next...... Kat :catlove:
  2. Finished the Amulet of Samarkand yesterday and i was really impressed. I'm off to try and find the next one now.... Started reading Jodie Picoult - Salem Falls last night, so far so good as with all her books I've read so far. Kat :catlove:
  3. i'm half way through this now and I'm loving it. I am having to tear myself away from it to do household stuff :oops: I'm already looking into the next book of the trilogy so that I don't forget what happened in this one highly recommended for those of you that like the lighter teenage reading but great fantasy plot. Kat :catlove:
  4. My mum is currently reading this one and I've asked to borrow it when she's finished. So. of all those that bought it (at bargain prices I might add ) what did you think of it? Did it live up to all the hype? Kat :catlove:
  5. i'm about half way through this now and I'm really impressed. It's not at all what I thought it would be (but I suppose that's what you get for judging books by their covers right? ) I find he writes very similar to Terry Pratchett but for a slightly younger audience. The same wit and humour injected into a simple but descriptive narrative. I only started this book a day ago and i'm already half way through. Very easy to read and an enjoyable story to boot. Can't wait for the next ones. Kat :catlove:
  6. Just started reading Jonathan Stroud last night, the first book of the Bartemeus trilogy. Initial thoughts - very Pratchett Kat :catlove:
  7. Ok, I've done the RISI thingy, I just need another set of eyes to kkep up with the books lol I'm coming to the end of Darkhouse by Alex Barclay and so far I'm quite impressed. The book itself looks really good, with blood red edging to the pages but the story is developing really well. I lost heart at first because I couldn't keep track of all the characters and the switching back and forth between counties and times but I think I got the hang of it now. My opinion so far is - a really great first book. Kat :catlove:
  8. How does read it, swap it work then, other than the obvious lol?
  9. blast Amazon and their powers of persuasion Kat :catlove:
  10. Trudi Canavan comes highly recommended by me. I just happened upon her books in Waterstone's one day and decided to give them a go (they were 3 for 2 ) After turning the page and finding it was the end of book one, I went straight for book two and three. I was engrossed in her easy to follow but imaginative plot and interesting, down to earth (for magicians) characters. I was just a little disappointed to come to the end and leave it all behind. Hopefully the next books will live up to what she started Kat :catlove:
