hiya...welcome!

agreed!!

The Boy On The Bus-Deborah Schupack just terrible!!

hiya Chris...welcome:)

just finished shopaholic and baby....I really like this series, very easy and light reading...you know more or less how it will end, but it's still a fun trip!

The Witch Of Portobello-Paulo Coelho I enjoyed this book a lot more than I thought I would. The only other book I read of Coelho's was The Devil And Miss Prym, and I wasn't that impressed. I would highly recommend this one:D

it depends....I usually try to squeeze in a few minutes here and there, but in the evening if nothing else is going on I'll read for an hour or longer sometimes

wow Gyre, I'm inpressed with that list! There are quite a few there on my TBR pile as well! I LOVED Chocolat...move that one up a bit;) I couldn't finish American Psycho....(one of the few) and I had to force myself to finish Vanishing Acts...that one really disappointed me next up for me is Shopaholic and Baby!!

whoops...the pact and plain truth are tv movies....I guess keeping faith is in the works....my bad:blush:

just one at a time

I've debated several times over getting this book.....I also just finished one of hers that tended to drag a bit, then perked up (second glance) wasn't there a tv movie made for keeping faith?

one instance where I actually liked the movie better:blush:

looks like a new one coming out....The Good Guy on May 29th (uk release june 4th)

Lean Mean Thirteen is finally coming out June 19....nice birthday gift to myself!! (uk release on june 20)

I tried it a while back, couldn't get thru it either

I just finished Second Glance...anyone read this? The book was pretty good....mainly a love and ghost story rolled into one...but also goes into eugenics, which I found fascinating and quite disturbing. Also, I think this book was a bit too long. At least 75 pages too long. for those wondering: Eugenics-is a social philosophy which advocates the improvement of human hereditary traits through various forms of intervention. The goals of various groups advocating eugenics have included the creation of healthier, more intelligent people, to save society's resources, and lessen human suffering, as well as racially based goals or desires to breed for other specific qualities, such as fighting abilities. Earlier proposed means of achieving these goals focused on selective breeding, while modern ones focus on prenatal testing and screening, genetic counseling, birth control, in vitro fertilization, and genetic engineering. Opponents argue that eugenics is immoral and is based on, or is itself, pseudoscience. Historically, eugenics has been used as a justification for coercive state-sponsored discrimination and human rights violations, such as forced sterilization of persons who appear to have - or are claimed to have - genetic defects, the killing of the institutionalized and, in some cases, outright genocide of races perceived as inferior or undesireable.

hiya carm...welcome:D

usually in the evening, but I also manage to sneak in a page or two here and there.

I have read Gone For Good and really enjoyed it.....will give this one a try soon as well:)

I have this on my TBR shelf....I don't think I'll be in a hurry for it;)

I've thought about getting the bimbos one. I think I will now!! as for the other, it was pretty good. a lot of it was very far-fetched and silly, but a few parts made me laugh so hard I almost cried, (and got some strange looks) so that alone made it worth while....so I would recommend it for a laugh if nothing else:)
