Love the thread title LOL

You have some good books there, Kitty, and like the rest of us, lots of reading ahead. I would recommend Cold Comfort Farm- Stella Gibbons. It's one of my all time favourites. Funny, witty and very clever. Another favourite of mine is The Woman in White - Wilkie Collins, (which I really MUST read again very soon). ;)

That is a good list Kitty. Some great books there. Some on my list and some I would like to put on my list if it were not so long already.

The Diana Gabaldon books are great. I assume that you have already read Cross Stitch and Dragonfly in Amber since they are not on your list. Did you enjoy them?

I have still to read A Breath of Snow and Ashes. It is so big, but I must get around to it soon.:D

I did really enjoy them, they were the sort of books i really enjoy reading, in the sense that they are books which you would not normally read but you stumble across them and love them

The first time I stumbled upon her books I could not believe that anyone would call a book Cross Stitch. I lifted it from the shelf to see just what it was about. I was hooked. :D

Read the Koyasan Novella by Darren Shan, i think he wrote it for WBD 2006 and a bargain at a £1 a really lovely and enjoyable read, reminds me of an old fashioned fairy tale

Just read Dead Witch Walking - Kim Harrison the first of the Rachel Morgan series of books. I read it really quickly and enjoyed it too a proper hangover book - one you can read all day in bed with a sore head that is enjoyable but does not require alot of brain power :lol:

I was planning on trying some AB stuff, but if they're anything like the Kim Harrison books I'll not enjoy them - I really didn't like Harrison's style, although I liked the basic idea behind the books (I only read the 1st two and didn't bother with the third).

I enjoyed the Anita Blake books more and i found them better written too. However, both series of books are what i call hangover books which you can just read and enjoy without too much thought but you can use your imagination. I describe them as being the Jackie Collins of the horror / fantasy world.
