The Library Nook Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 These are most of the books I have read since April 2007, I didn't keep a good enough record before then and often kick myself over that fact! The Hapless Teachers Handbook by Phil Ball A Friend Like Henry by Nuala Gardner No Plot? No Problem by Chris Baty When We Were Orphans by Kazuo Ishiguro Enduring Love by Ian McEwan Song of Susannah by Stephen King The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall The Heart of the Dale by Gervase Phinn The Sound of Laughter by Peter Kay Twelve Sharp by Janet Evanovich Love and Devotion by Erica James Hidden Talents by Erica James Various childrens books- didn't write their names down The Road by Cormac McCarthy A Murder is Announced by Agatha Christie Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows by JK Rowling Spelling Mississippi by Marnie Woodrow The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid by Bill Bryson Q and A by Vikas Swarup Purple Hibiscus by Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie Black Swan Green by David Mitchell To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee Four Play by Fiona Walker The Abortionist's Daughter by Elisabeth Hyde So Many Books, So little Time by Sara Nelson The Brief History of the Dead by Kevin Brockmeier English Correspondence by Janet Davey The Girls by Lori Lansens Half of a Yellow Sun What are other people's thoughts on these books? I am trying to choose a favourite, or even a top ten but am useless at that! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kylie Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 To Kill A Mockingbird is one of my very favourite books And Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is right up there too. They're the only ones from your list that I've read. What did you think of Enduring Love? I have that one on my TBR pile. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I loved To Kill a Mockingbird, I am so glad I read it finally- it has got me inspired to read some more classics. Enduring Love I am still, a few months later, undecided what I thought of it! It was a good book but I think my problem was the main character infuriated the heck out of me! But I definitely recommend it, let me know what you think when you read it!

Adam Posted November 4, 2007 Share Posted November 4, 2007 I can't wait to read some more of his, any recommendations of what I should try next of his? He has written a trilogy called the Border Trilogy which is supposed to be good. I have not read it, but I have heard good things. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
