  1. Yeas, I have read that too and it's just as good!
  2. That looks good, I love books about books! Have you read Inkheart? An enchanting story, I loved it.
  3. I loved that book, made me want to open a shop just like hers!
  4. I just love the title of this book, I am going to have to read it for that alone!
  5. Still reading Labyrinth, having few chances to read at the moment. Picked up three new books in a charity shop to add to Mount TBR!
  6. Oh I know what book you mean, I read an extract and review in newbooksmag, it sounded really good!
  7. I have just finished Landscape of Love and wow what a fantastic book! It shifts time and perspective but is beautifully written. It twists and turns with so many suprises that right until the last page you wonder what will happen. It makes me long for idyllic England and long hot summers. It is the tale of three sisters and how their lives are transformed one summer. The story is told from perspectives that helps reveal the secrets of youth.
  8. Another thing I have been inspired by is peoples use of blogs to keep a record and just generally chat about blogs. I have created a livejournal one and put it as my signature. So this post is really to see how it works! Hope this is ok:)
  9. I am really enjoying The Landscape of Love so far. At the beginning I could not seem to get in to it, it seemed a bit slow but now I am so drawn into it I cannot put it down! Will definitely read some of her others.
  10. Its great it inspires me to read more so I can have interesting things to say!
  11. I read it a while ago and I must say... I hated it! But so many people I know loved it so I might try it again one day. Glad you are enjoying it.
  12. lol the only eye rolling I get at the moment is from my local librarian., Everytime I walk in she asks me how much I owe- I am always spending a fortune on fines. Its only a small library with limited opening hours so by the time I finish work its always closed!
  13. I am already itching to buy new books, just when I decided I needed to curb my spending as well!
  14. I have enjoyed reading other peoples blogs and may nick the idea of editing the first page to easily keep track! My to read list is growing rapidly, darn you all!
  15. Firstly I hope it is ok if I set one up, think this is a good idea. For several years I kept a record of everything I read, including reviews but then I just stopped and its such a shame because there is no way I can name all the books I have read in the past year or so. So I will start here and try and print it out so I can keep a paper copy too! Anyway last night I started Sally Beauman The Landscape of Love and so far it seems good. I have never read any Beauman books but my future sister in law really recommends her.
