This was a recent book that had fave reviews about a man who is washed up in Spain thinking he is Christopher Columbus. There is a lot of talk about male arousal and we keep going back in time but it is poor and hard to get into, it is a page turner but cos u have to turn back a few pages to get the gist. I will finish it even just to give a poor review.

The book IT by Stephen King, I loved it but was blimming scarey

Almost finished Blood and Ice by Robert Masello a brilliant book and a real page turner.

One Day by David Nicholls.

"Who would have believed in the late 19th century that human affairs were being watched from space"

An unsuitable job for a woman P.D.James.

Have you read anymore? My grand daughter loves Tracy Beaker and all Wilsons books. My faves were Enid Blyton but I am much older than you.

I am 170 pages into Patricia Cornwell's Unnatural Exposure. Her 8th Scarpetta novel. This amuses me as Cornwell describes the new Email and internet facilities and how an image builds down the screen. How the hell Lucy keeps her job I don't know as she is a bit amateur sometimes.Ring an FBI investogater has the hots for Lucy but he does seem a bit pervy. The books is a great thriller and at last we see Dr Kay has a personal side and sleeps with her new lover. This is my third book this week but the 1st Scarpetta I have read for a long time and I am really enjoying it. I have one more Scarpetta after this one but may read it last in my TBR for next week.

All housework done, home tidy, usually late afternoon laying on the sofa, complete silence. Glass of milk and a bag of wine Gums. Evenings in bed and I usually read until the small hours

The New Scientist, and Radio Times thats all really.

Morrisons Orange Juice I don't drink alcohol at all, a glass of full fat milk is nice in the evening

Robert Mc Gammon is very good. His books are not trilogies and I would start reading Swan Song about a young maturing girl during a nuclear war. http://www.amazon.co.uk/Swan-Song-Robert-McCammon/dp/1439156735/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1275414011&sr=8-1

I am reading Insomnia and although I am well into the book page wise it is a hard book and really very boring. I do hope it improves. I never start a SK and not keep reading so I will let you know how I get along at the end Also Amazon says the Dome wont be out in paperback until July.

Books help me with my depression it is a great way to relax

Have you tried Edgar Allen Poe?

Botany books, county floras and scale model emergency vehicles

Only books I have read or disliked half way through

Just read a very moving and often black humoured book about the Blitz in London on 10th and 11th May 1941. Stories of how when Spitfire pilots shot down a German bomber that when he buzzed the fallen crew gave him the V sign so he rounded back and strafed them with gunfire and "blew them to bits" The woman who was blown into a house wall and other nasties. In the aftermath the middle classes came to "Rubber neck" and the looting that night was terrible. It was un-put downable

Sounds like "Good Thomas" or similar

I hate that GO COMPARE. man who opera sings I really hate it.

I wish I could Read Pratchett but I just cannot get through one chapter, I am not sure whether it is too intelligent for me or I just dont have that sort of humour. I cannot get into any of the films from his books either. It is my beiigest regret I cannot get into Terry Pratchett books

I have the full works of Oscar Wilde and dip into it occasionally. He was a great writer.
