  1. If I really like a book I can sit and read it all in a few hours, but usually I read a book every 2-3 days
  2. Drop into the rotten mouth of death. Thanks, that's just charming
  3. Yeah I was gutted when they both died, I recently re-watched season 1 of Angel, and I was so sad when
  4. I'm various people in 1500 Italy
  5. Me too Mac, but I agree, some are fantastic and some are just okay, I have lots of his on my TBR pile still to read

  7. You're an hour ahead of us in England, it's only 22.57 here
  8. Your Heart Belongs To Me by Dean Koontz No. of pages: 406 Rating: 3/5 Synopsis: Ryan Perry, at 34, is a young man – hardly of an age to be on a waiting list, nervously hoping for a heart transplant. Luck appears to be with him: he is the recipient of a new heart, and (fortunately) the transplant takes, triumphantly. But a year passes, and Ryan begins to receive gifts in the shape of hearts, sent anonymously. A feeling of paranoia sets in – and this feeling is exacerbated when a large amount of money vanishes from his bank account – it has been donated to a local hospital’s cardiology department. Needless to say, all of this is a prelude to something truly horrific: everything he owns – including his new heart – is to be torn from him, and he is informed he will die a grisly death. Who is Ryan’s tormentor? Review: Internet mogul Ryan Perry is young, rich and enjoying life to the full, until he starts having heart problems. But when he has his heart replacement he finds that his problems are only just beginning. This book wasn't really what I was expecting it to be and I think that's why I didn't enjoy it as much as I thought I would. The story didn't even really get anywhere until over half way through, and then it wasn't anything like previous thrillers by him I have read. If you approach the book as just a drama rather than the supernatural type thriller it's advertised as, then it's an okay read, nothing fantastic, but readable. I just found the story to be a bit too random and choppy. Certainly nothing I'd recommend.
  9. Hey Nicola, how are you? Just wanted to let you know the book has arrived safely, thanks so much! x

  10. Thank you Mac, I can't tell you how much that lovely message meant :friends0: Lots of hugs for you too, as I know you need them also! I hope things aren't too tough for you atm, and I hope things get better/easier for you, it certainly is very hard being a solitary being, I love being alone, and could happily not leave the house for weeks at a time, so I can understand how tough it is to force yourself to act 'normal' and socialise with people :friends0:

  17. Already he was in a game with the highest possible stakes, and neither craps nor blackjack, nor baccarat could distract him from the knowledge that his life was on the line. So Denver in the early morning. As he had taken lunch in his hotel room, so he took dinner. Dean Koontz - Your Heart Belongs To Me
  18. I'm a very rich guy that all of a sudden is having heart problems, the doctor says it could have been caused by being poisoned, so I'm snooping around to see who could have done it to me
  19. That's exactly how I felt
  20. He is nice...but not as nice as Eric Do we notice a theme here?
