  1. Hmm, presumably you are looking for factual books? Have never read these but have read many fictitious stories about the troubles. Would they count?
  2. I avoid these "movie tie-in" covers too. Not that I would be bothered being seen with one. Just that being a cover-lover I want my books to sport the covers *I* want and that's definitely not a movie tie-in one . . . unless of course it's a Johnny Depp one, of which I own 3
  3. And what greater role model could one ask for :) In my youth I thought Hanna Barbera was one woman as in Hanna being her Christian name and Barbera being her surname. I'm still as guileless after all these years! :roll:

    Take Care ~ Trish.

  4. Another good avatar, Sedge.

  5. I got that "Sisters in Arms" book. Now I have to find space to read it ~ ha! Hope you're well ~ Trish.

  6. Ohhhh NO : ( I just noticed my avatar as my message went through. I am so sorrry. Mea Culpa.

  7. Hiya Heather. Well Done on giving up smoking! Keep at it ~ Trish x

  8. Chesilbeach! These books are so pretty. Have you read "Miss Pettigrew Lives For a day" yet? i read it a wee while ago and really enjoyed it.
  9. I have this one marked tbr. Personally, I'm quite partial to streams of conscience novels.
  10. Love the avatar! That is so cute!

  11. Oh, Gyre! I love the sound of this! I'm gonna look for it. Hope you're well x ~Trish. ps You might also enjoy "The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao" by Junot Diaz x
  12. I am with you on all points regarding Cormac McCarthy's "The Road" Binary_Digit. I was just too to say so on my own After reading it left me bleak and downhearted. On the other hand, despite its brutality I loved "No Country For Old Men" and also enjoyed "The Border Trilogy".
  13. Cheers for that. It does look good and I'm definitely gonna buy it. Regretted not doing so soon as I got home. Bet I can read it before you can even.

  14. Hey there, Roland. How are you? I was just in town looking at that QA Nursing Sisters book you mentioned a while ago. I think I'm gonna buy it next week. Have you read it yet? If so would you be willing to give me your view on it? Thanks, ~ Trish and Jessie's.

  15. Being Emily by Ann Donovan The Tea House On Mulberry Street by Sharon Owens
  16. Thanks again, Michaela. Difficult when stories involve lots of characters and situations. I will let you know if and when I give this a go. Currently it is wayyy down my tbr pile. Take Care ~ Trish.

  17. Love the avatar, Sedge : )

  18. Another Calvin and Hobbes fan here. We love them so much that the kids named our cat Hobbes! And very philosophical he is too I have 2 sets of the comic books which I've owned for about 15 years or so so doubt I will be buying the Amazon ones.
  19. No problem Diane. It's such fun! Thanks.

  20. Hi Inver. Many thanks for the book ring info. It is much appreciated. I'll get onto that as it seems like good fun. I saw your wee postcard in "Tea House". Do I date that or do you? ~ Trish.

  21. Thanks for the info on "Good Faeries" Michaela. I haven't read "Jonathon Strange" yet either. That's another I'd like to try.
