I would have said the same lopeanha. Creepers Link , is the book that came to my mind, I read it about 3 yrs ago. There is also a sequel out now called Scavenger Link .

Thanks peacefield! Organised, me? The lists are basically copied and carried forward from last year's blog I have added a couple to my wishlist, including Spellbound by Kelley Armstrong, I don't even think it's out yet! Undead and Unwed is a great little book. It's a quick read and is something light and enjoyable, perfect for in between doorstops I think it was after I read your review last year that I added The Last Witchfinder to my wishlist, it did look pretty good if I remember. Thanks chesil, I had thought of them. I figured something non too taxing to begin with. Like you said, something that I'd whizz through in the hope that it would perk me up, seeing myself going through books, if that makes sense I did start a Sherrilyn Kenyon book last night and it seems ok so far, but I definitely want to read the Morganville books sooner rather than later I love Kelley Armstrong pickle! It's shame too, as I've read everything of hers that I own I did consider the Erica Spindler and the Tess Gerritsen while chosing a book last night as I do love their stuff, but I went for something a bit lighter to try coax my mojo out of hiding. I do want to get back into thrillers this year though, I spent most of last year reading supernatural books

Phew! I think that's it. I know I have a few others I want to add to my wishlist but basically, I'm all done. I look forward to adding to this as the year progresses!

Charm's Choices ~ 2011 Goodness me, it's that time already! Where did the year go? I've decided to get my finger out and start my reading list for 2011, in the hope that it will return my waning mojo Last year I set myself a target to try and read 70 books by the end of the year, having managed to read 60 the year before. I did however, only manage to read 68 although I'm confident that if my mojo had have been here throughout the last two months of the year, I would have beaten my target. With that in mind, and the fact that my mojo has gone awol, I'm going to stick to the previous target and try to hit the 70 mark in 2011. If anyone wishes to comment about a book I've read, or they've read a book they think I might enjoy, please feel free chat away here! I'm always open to suggestions and love getting them, bookish or otherwise! Charm's Choices ~ 2009 Charm's Choices ~ 2010

All of the above ^ And this ^ This too! ^ ....oh and I'd like to add City Of Fallen Angels by Cassandra Clare

I loved Gerry Rafferty's music and was so sad to hear this news. I have very fond memories of myself and my older brother singing at the top of our voice to his album, while coming home from my Mum's caravan. I was about 16 *sigh* .. RIP Gerry

Wow! That's fantastic! A film series of the books would be brilliant! Hmm I wonder who they'll get to play the main characters?

I just finished Clockwork Angel on new year's eve and thoroughly enjoyed it. I've read the mortal instrument series too and can highly recommend both. Can't wait for the sequels in both series'!

I have read nothing in ages ... zilch..... not ..a... jot. I did rearrange my bookshelves today to try and bond with my books again and maybe even find my mojo hiding behind one of them, but no. No mojo and no inspiration of what to read .. *sigh*

I quite fancy these two myself. I read The Graveyard Book last year and thought it was a beautiful read. Your mojo should be chomping at the bit this year!

BAHAHAHAHA! :lol: I'll have you know, I bought 35 books in one go last Autumn! All for a fiver! Now for my happy dance!

I read it a couple of years ago and if memory serves, it did take me ages to get into. But like all Cecelia books lately, the last third of the book flew in and I believe I even shed a wee tear!

Well done on a reading list this year Chrissy! Can't wait to read your reviews

Happy Reading Janet! Hope 2011 is a great reading year for you

Happy Reading peace for 2011! Hope you enjoy some fantastic books Delete this post if it's in the way

Thanks! Me too, I hate having no mojo

Great reading list Abby, so organised! I'm really looking forward to the next Cassie Clare book too, maybe we'll read it at the same time? Happy Reading hun for 2011!

Great reading list Kat! I really fancy trying the Michelle Bardsley books this year, they look good. Happy reading in 2011!

Hope you have a great reading year this year Claire and I'm looking forward to reading your reviews. Happy reading!
