Weave

Great post poppy I've never read 'Lord of the Flies', I saw the film (which is not the same) and didn't like it, just the idea of it.

Cool, you saw it, I'm so pleased you enjoyed it peace, I was surprised too when I saw the end credits and it was Philip Seymour Hoffman The Omega Man

Angry Boys

I'm reading 'Across The Universe' by Beth Revis which Abby recommended to me, its really good so far, I'm enjoying it

You like what you like Ben

Sounds great Chrissy, I'm off to have a think

Hi Ben, how are you? Great post I actually agree with most of what you said about the books but I still think they are a fun read with memorable characters and also they got me through some difficult times because they were a light~hearted read, just what I needed.

There is no getting away from this awful newspaper.

Way to go lopeanha!, I enjoyed 'The Abused Werewolf Rescue Group' but I enjoyed 'The Reformed Vampire Support Group' more. My friend recommended it for me, she has read the whole series (so far), I will definitely let you know peace. I finished 'The Abused Werewolf Rescue Group' by Catherine Jinks and I am about to begin 'Across The Universe' by Beth Revis

You are always full of handy book hints Kylie

Good stuff Sofia

Hi Kylie, how are you? Thank you for the title, it sounds interesting, I just added it to my wishlist.

A mug of tea

I'm halfway through The Abused Werewolf Rescue Group by Catherine Jinks And I ordered from amazon (over the past 2 days) ~ Ultraviolet by R J Anderson Grace Williams Says it Loud by Emma Henderson Undead and Unwed (Undead Series ~ Book 1) by MaryJanice Davidson Pride and Prejudice and Zombies: Dreadfully Ever After by Steve Hockensmith Forever (Wolves of Mercy Falls ~ Book 3) by Maggie Stiefvater (Pre~order)

I recently read 'Cash: The Autobiography of Johnny Cash' by Johnny Cash and Patrick Carr, it was very insightful and I enjoyed it immensely.

Great choice Ben, I have never read 'Good Omens', my husband loves it though, one of his favourite reads

I agree with you wholeheartedly poppy, 'Stardust' is a fantastic read

What an awful thing to happen, those poor dogs

Kinda and their right to shop I love 'Flowers for Algernon' too Kylie, fantastic book I found 'The Minds of Billy Milligan' when I was looking for something else and bam! there it was.

The Cleveland Show

Hi Kylie, how are you? I have heard of 'The United States of Tara' but I have never seen it, I will keep an eye out for it, thanks Kylie I have heard of two other books on the subject 'When Rabbit Howls' by Truddi Chase (which ladymacbeth mentioned) and 'The Minds of Billy Milligan' by Daniel Keyes, I would like to read them at some point. Hi ladymacbeth, how are you? 'Sybil' was written by Flora Rheta Schreiber, a friend of her psychiatrist, I thought her thoughts quite chaotic too.

I know right? I never wanted to slap someone so much in my life!, she was so mean!

Thanks peace I haven't seen the film (my friend Claire has and she said the same as you), at times I forgot it was one person because of all the personalities, there is hard parts through it, she had such a terrible time.

Sybil by Flora Rheta Schreiber ~ Started: 30.06.11 ~ Finished: 04.07.11 Synopsis ~ Here is the unbelievable yet true story of Sybil Dorsett, a survivor of terrible childhood abuse who as an adult was a victim of sudden and mysterious blackouts. What happened during those blackouts has made Sybil's experience one of the most famous psychological cases in the world. The Story ~ Sybil is the true story of Sybil Dorsett (a pseudonym for Shirley Ardell Mason) who had Dissociative identity disorder (Multiple Personality Disorder). Sybil due to the trauma of her childhood created sixteen personalities (including her own), three of the personalities were created by two of the prominent personalities. The story explores the reasons why Sybil created the personalities and her road to integration of all of the personalities What I thought of 'Sybil' ~ I have seen one person with Dissociative identity disorder and it has always interested me as to the reasons why it happens. This book is incredibly insightful, Sybil's life from birth was traumatic, she experienced cruelty at the hands of her own Mother and the only way she could cope was to create different personalities to protect herself. Sybil was also let down badly by the people around her, her Mother's cruelty and her Father's blatant ignorance to what was happening to his daughter. There has been questions raised about Sybil's story, there are various theories that it was a hoax, that Sybil's psychiatrist lied about Sybil's diagnosis and Sybil was suffering from hysteria, whether Sybil's story is true or not, you will feel sadness for her. I enjoyed the book but found it hard going to read, I had to stop a few times to get my head around certain things. Rating ~ 7/10
