  2. :006:Welcome to the Forum Naivion.
  3. I have seen the movie advertised a few times and it looks really good. Think I'll need a few tissues though . I have never read any of Jodi Picoult's books but I will definitely be buying this book to read for my hols next month before I see the film.
  4. Thank you again Kimmy. The point horror books arrived yesterday.

  5. Dying Light by Stuart Macbride It's summertime in the Granite city: the sun is shining, the sky is blue, and people are dying... It starts with Rosie Williams, a prostitute, stripped naked and beaten to death down by the docks the heart of Aberdeen's red light district. For DS Logan McRae it's a bad start to another bad day. Only a few short months ago he was the golden boy of Grampian police. But one botched raid later he's palmed off on a DI everyone knows is a jinx, waiting for the axe to fall with all the other rejects in the 'Screw-up Squad'. Logan's not going to take it lying down. He's determined to escape DI Steel and her unconventional methods, and the best way to do that is to crack the case in double-quick time. But Rosie Williams won't be the only one making an unscheduled trip to the morgue. Across the city six people are burning to death in a petrol-soaked squat, the doors and windows screwed shut from the outside. And despite Logan's best efforts, it's not long before another prostitute turns up on the slab... It was a fantastic and gripping read and I really could not put it down. There are some great twists and a some gruesome parts one of which I won't divulge as it was shocking to read. I would definitely recommend this book and would give it 10/10. Has anyone else read this book?

  13. Sophe Kinsella is one of my favourite authors. I have just finished reading Remember Me? which I couldn't put down it was brilliant . I can't wait for Twenties Girl to hit the shops and I sure it will be another fantastic read. :readingtwo:I am currently reading The Undomestic Goddess which I have read many times and is one of my favourites.
  14. Hiya.. I'm in the Northfield area - where in Aberdeen are you?

  15. Martina's books are brilliant so I'm looking forward to watching it.
  16. I use the shops and online for my books. It is sometimes cheaper to buy books online and I have found quite a few bargains at my nearest British heart Foundation charity shop.
  17. How long have I been awake? Is it morning yet? Remember Me? by Sophie Kinsella I've only read a few chapters and I'm hooked. Another fantastic book from Sophie.
  18. I always read in the car, however I do start to feel sick after a while and have to take a rest. I don't have any problems reading on the train though.
  19. I've read the Harry Potter books more than once and I have lost count of how many times I have read Ghost by Danielle Steel. If I really enjoy a book, after a while I will read it again.
  20. I just cooked homemade meatballs in a tomato sauce with pasta Delicious!!
  21. Hi Yeah the forum is great, was a bit confusing to start with :blush:. I've had a great weekend thanks been enjoying the sun :).

  22. Spaghetti with a home-made tomato sauce with some cheese on top.
  23. My favourite is Sophie Kinsella I have read most of her books and they are brilliant. My fav has to be The Undomestic Goddess
  24. :006:Hi Green, Welcome to the Forum
  25. I am not really bothered what the author looks like - it's the book i am interested in. I would never be put off a book because of one bad picture, authors are made to pose that way it's not a natural photograph.
