  1. I think you mean me!! Yes it's Lavender and that's my daughter although she is not quite as angelic as she looks. I have finished Esme now - thoroughly enjoyed it
  2. thank you I am going to have a look at the link. I think Kate Figes used to write for the Guardian or Independent - I seem to remember reading articles about parenting in the last few years or so.
  3. Are you a speed reader? You seem to read very quickly indeed. What is your secret?
  4. I am liking the sound of 'The Big Fat Bitch Book' by Kate Figes -have read and enjoyed 'What About Me?' - Is this a new one?
  5. I thought every High St had a Waterstones. Maybe Google it and look at Store locator
  6. You had better believe it - we have everything Dr Who including all books, all DVDs, duvet set etc,etc.
  7. Daughter about a quarter of the way thru so there will be a delay on the review!
  8. I will ask daughter tomorrow what she thinks - she has gone to bed now
  9. You are in for a treat!!
  10. The daughter who doesn't read has read these! Which must make them good. We did get the CDs from the library for a holiday and they were excellent to listen to - I can see the appeal
  11. I am on page 200 or so and I Really good read - I shall be sorry to finish.
  12. Prozac Nation is on my TBR:smile2:
  13. We now have 3 charity shops within a few yards of each other and they all have big collections of books. Found 4 good books posted on 'what Books Came Into Your House Today'
  14. If u have a school council I wonder if u should take it up with them. Also do your parents know there is no library that u can use? An item for school governors methinks. At my sons state school there is a big library where they can take out books, new ones even!!
  15. Hello Maggie Welcome I am also about threequarters of the way through 'Esme Lennox' and am enjoying it very much
  16. I am going tomorrow to hospice shop and am looking forward to it!
  17. I started reading this yesterday morning and have already covered 80 pages. I am enjoying it immensely so far. It reminded me of a long ago visit to Friern Barnet, an enormous N London institution now closed which housed women like Esme.
  18. Finished My Sister's Keeper - Jodi Picoult took - 12 days. Added The Vanishing Act of Esme Lennox to TBR pile and have started it. Proving to be a good read.
  19. sorry I only just saw this today and you are right - I was not thinking
  20. I was hovering over 'Lucky' in the hospice shop last week. Not sure I could get through it from reading the flyer so I didn't buy it.
  21. Sounds like a good read - will pick up at the shops soon - thanks for review:D
  22. Purchased a Dragon fruit from Tesco about 2 months ago and sprogs wanted to plant the seeds which looked like frogspawn! They have sprouted very well indeed so I potted them on yesterday:lol:
