Totally agree, I watched it last week because I couldn't wait until Halloween to watch it!

Cary Brothers - Belong

I wouldn't say it's weird to say they're beautiful, I thought they were too

My big horrible 'Stieg Larsson' bit is a part of my cover so I can't peel it off which annoys me greatly I don't think the two authors are anything alike whatsoever to be honest, so apparantly coming from the same region of the world means you're similar authors?! Interesting! Anyway, I finished The Snowman and thought it was fantastic, can't wait to get another of his books in the future

I'm still reading The Snowman, have been reading it all week but it's a cracker of a book

Blondie - Heart Of Glass Lifehouse - Everything Don Davis - Trinity Definitely Queens Of The Stone Age - Go With The Flow Alex Parks - Everybody Hurts The Saturdays - Work Plan B - She Said Keane - Nothing In My Way Laura Izibor - Mmm... The Veronicas - Untouched

Blondie - Heart Of Glass

I'm reading Jo Nesbo's The Snowman atm and it's a great read, although I did look around and it seems the first two books in the Harry Hole series haven't been translated but all the later ones have, which is a bit baffling! I'm definitely going to have to get Nemesis now too!

I've decided to get a Kindle with the money I always get for xmas I'm really looking forward to it!

Couples Retreat, nothing special though

With regards to deciding which country to define someone as, it's just down to personal choice, most people either do it as the country the author was born in, or the country they currently live in. But then of course there are people who do it by which country the book is set in, so it can be any of them or a mix of them all Sucks about not knowing authors you've read in the past, all I can suggest is maybe when you do some research for each country a name will pop out at you and you'll remember reading something by them?

You should join in! You can read either horror or supernatural for it, I decided to go the supernatural route mainly because I just seem to have a lot more of those types of books lying around. I'm glad to hear it, I've had it for ages and just never gotten around to it, so figured now was the perfect time!

Thanks hun I haven't definitely decided yet, but I was thinking maybe Let The Right One In, The Book Of Lost Things, The Host and something else, but I'll probably decide as I go along. Quite looking forward to it though, I do love supernatural and horror books so it's right up my street really!

Thanks you two! I've been in such a bad reading slump lately and it's really annoying me. It's not even that the books I'm reading are bad, I just have absolutely zero desire to pick them up and when I do, I put them down again after 10 minutes. So frustrating! Anyway, because of that I decided to sign up for a 'halloween read-a-thon' for this coming weekend, so I'm hoping that kicks me up the butt a bit!

Hope you enjoy it hun! Didn't know that it was out of stock, guess I'll have to keep my eyes open for when it's back so I can order it

Glad to hear it was good! I picked up The Snowman last week after hearing that this guy is really good, so I'm looking forward to starting it

I read this last year I think, and it's not as sordid as it sounds, and the thought of it being banned is absolutely ridiculous. It's more about the fact that a girl wants to live a bit before she dies rather than a randy teen just wanting to get it on. I find this whole banning business very sad and silly indeed. Will taking all of the books in the world that have sex in them away stop teenagers thinking about or engaging in underage sex, of course it won't. For children who have parents that are very strict or too embarrased to talk about growing up and the things it entails, books can be a massive help, and they don't mean that everyone who reads them will rush out to have sex, do drugs or god knows what else. Makes me wonder what these adults really think of their own children, because it can't be anything of any value can it?!

Just had a lovely cuppa

My copy of The Snowman arrived yesterday, I'm rather looking forward to getting stuck in thanks to this thread

I really thought Her Fearful Symmetry was a load of rubbish, but The Time Traveler's Wife is my favourite book, so I'd definitely recommend to not let HFS put you off from reading it, it's a lot better imo

I completely forgot to come back and say, this is definitely one for people who enjoyed The Hunger Games, it is of course different, but in some ways it's very similar too. I thought it was very enjoyable and will definitely be looking out for the second one

Oo hope you enjoy it

You really have to wonder at what these people think of kids don't you?!

Ohhh right, wow, and that is apparantly 'homosexual themes'?! She's barely in it

I was thinking that too, I've read it more than once, and absolutely nothing comes to mind, it's quite baffling really
