  1. Finally finished TDWP and thoroughly enjoyed it, in my opinion it was better than the film. Next on the list The Tenth Circle by Jodi Picoult Daniel Stone had thought it would never happen to him. How could it, when Trixie's face lit up every time she saw him, when for her whole life he'd been the centre of her world? But recently it seems without him noticing it, his daughter is gone, and in her place is a stranger. Until the night fourteen yoear old Trixie comes home from a party claiming she was raped, and suddenly she needs him more than ever. Because the whole school knew Jason Underhill broke Trixie's heart, but that doesn't make him a rapist, does it? For Daniel, there is no doubt: his daughter is innocent. He failed to protect her once. Now he will do anything to save her... Also starting Sense & Sensibility by Jane Austen, looking forward to reading this. I've never read Jane Austin's work before.

  4. Janet & John books from infants also The Wind in the Willows in juniors are some of my earliest memories. I also remember buying The Lion The witch and The Wardrobe when I was 7 instead of having fireworks and getting Black Beauty as a present when I was 8.

  19. Hello and welcome Carly.
  20. Really enjoyed Jezza's book I love his outlook on life! Next up The Devil Wears Prada by Lauren Weisenberger. When Andrea firsts sets foot in the plush Manhattan offices of Runway she knows nothing. She's never heard of the world's most fashionable magazine, or its feared and fawned-over editor, Miranda Priestly. Soon she knows way too much. She knows it's a sacking offence to wear less than a three-inch heel to work - but there's always a fresh pair of Manolos in the accessories cupboard. She know's that eight stone is fat. That you can charge anything - cars, manicures, clothes - to the Runway account, but you must never leave your desk, or let Miranda's coffee get cold. That at 3am, when your boyfriend's dumping you because you're always working and your best friend's just been arrested, if Miranda phones with her latest unreasonable demand, you jump. Most of all, Andrea knows that Miranda is a monster boss who makes Cruella de Vil look like a fluffy bunny. But this is her big break, and it's all going to be worth it in the end. Isn't it?
  21. Hello and welcome FP looks like you've settled in already!
  22. I use the library a lot, here it is up to 15 books for 3 weeks. I also buy from WHS, Amazon, Green Metropolis and charity shops. On odd occasions I do buy from supermarkets and I also nearly always buy from school fetes or charity fund raisers T WORK.
  23. Another one for the wish list then, I like Karin Slaughter's books too.
