Chinese (sweet and sour, rice and chow mein!) 10. Favourite chocolate bar ~ You expect me to choose????????!!! 11. Favourite sandwich ~ Cold chicken and mayo

Jo, sounds like we need to have a Chinese if we manage to meet up - we share tastes! Andy - Don't they do chocolate pizzas yet?!

On the tv I've seen.. Grease Sound of Music South Pacific Mary Poppins Little Shop of Horrors Rocky Horror Stage: Grease Buddy The Sound of Music Little Shop of Horrors Les Mis <-- my all time favourite, I just love it!

Tooth Fairy certainly has me hooked. The author does seem to have strange ideas about sex...

I will Andy - it's just difficult to stick with something when I have another couple of books yelling at me! But I do intend to get back to it.

Good luck! Let us know how they go!

I can see how it wouldn't have a particular 'point' or ending. It's just the story of some boys growing up... and it going kinda wrong! I was wondering whether this is an 'entity', or just his imagination.. but the incident in the church at midnight mass seems to make it clear. Of course, I may change my mind as I read more!

I haven't seen the film, but I do recall hearing that it wasn't very good. I have enjoyed the whole series until now, but agree, the first is by far the best.

And yet I also seen some pretty bad reviews of My Sister's Keeper, especially concerning the ending.

I'm fed up with ebay - I pay out all the fees, then no one wants my stuff, or buys it for 99p! :grr:

I have just a few that I keep - most of which I have already read more than once, and feel I will read again. Most of mine end up at a book fair, or given to a charity shop.

I started Tooth Fairy, and I'll be sticking with one. But you were right, Kell.. it is a strange book! There's a real disturbing undertone to it.

Do you keep all the books you buy or do you sell/give them away?

Yep, the bed would be more comfortable than a hard floor in a chilly health centre!

I have to have a good one picked by tomorrow. I take Beth and her friend to football (indoors, thank goodness!) - whilst the other mummys and daddys are watching, I'm usually sat on my bum reading! :oops:

Well, the first few pages of Cloud Atlas didn't grab me. I'll give The Tooth Fairy a try tonight, and see if that fairs better. (I often make choices this way!)

Review In our recent awards, it won Best Fiction and Best Book of the Year Over-All

I'm not sure where to go next... The Tooth Fairy Velocity Clous Atlas :?

And you're quite welcome to, Andy!

Odd Thomas was great - interesting new ideas from Koontz, well written story, nice development of characters.. you really started believing in them, and feeling for them. Started strange (so don;t give up on it!), then picked up speed well. Some creepy/scary moments, some touching, sad ones. A great offering from Koontz this time.

You don't have time for dinner!!

Jo! I have that one for sale.. you could have bought it for much less than Amazon!

Yep, that was another one I used to read alot of.. but can't remember!

Oh my goodness.. another one to look out for! I'm going to need much bigger book shelves soon!
