  1. The Lovers is excellent massive fan of this series and John Connolly, couldn't wait for it to come out in paperbacck so bought it last year in hardback copy. Have you read 'the Gates' yet..if not it was very different but very good
  2. something with chocolate..there appeared to be a definit chocolate theme in my shopping trolley this afternoon..the perils of shopping with a hangover
  3. Well I went and bought 4 books today and took 4 out of the libarary as well. I bought Lovely Bones because so many people on here seem to think it's good Grave Secret because i have read all the others Prey: Rachel Vincent; for all those of you who have not come across her and like the paranormal werewolf stuff do recommend it very like Kelley Armstrong stuff on werewolves but its about a Pride of cats instead. the 4th pure indulgence Historical romance Amanda Quick Affair.
  4. afraid I more or less gave up non-fiction when i finished studying although I have since then read one or two very good archaeology books which I wish had ben around when i was studying. I don't know how I chose the 4 books I have come back from town with today, probably because i know all the authors bar one and just fancied the 4th because I have read good things about it on here.
  5. If you haven't seen Farscape watch it, it was brilliant was glued to the TV throughout although I love Angel too
  6. Leftovers..Spag bol again but I love it
  7. I really liked both Trek and Star Gate, although with Trek the later series, preferably Voyager although was a big fan of NG when it was new looking back on it now it seems so dated also could not stand Wesley Crusher..loved Data though.. To all you Star Gate fans out there I got a CV from a Daniel Jackson a couple of months ago and he is an archaeologist too, don't think it was the Star Gate one though..shame
  8. You have all made me want to go back to the Arthurian ledgends camp..there was such a glut in the 80's as every fantasy writer I came across either wrote about Arthur or based their books on the ledgends that I got fed up, maybe now nearly 25 years later I should start again..John Steinbeck did a very good King Arthur book can't remember what its called
  9. Porridge...gotta line that stomach if going out tonight
  10. The printer jamming behind me ..oh and My night with a prostitute from Marseille - Beirut
  11. Apart from the sound of my fingers drumming on my desk in impatience to the slowness of the internet.. The The - Heartland oh bring back the 80's

    Hello

    Hi welcome to the forum, also a huge fan of Austen, I remember the Christmas I got the complete hardback set..best present that year. Everyone reads at different speeds its the enjoyment and escapism of reading that counts so don't worry.

    Any keen cyclists?

    Well I haven't been on a bike in a long long time and this year I thought I would give it a go, but i need to get a bike so am trying to decide what to get, they all seem to cost an absolute fortune, can you recommend anything for a returning unfit but wanna be fair weather cyclist!
  14. I read Beyond Black a couple of years ago, and still remain in two minds as to whether I liked it. It was certainly different but it didn't make comfortable reading.
  15. Can you let me know what 'Carbon Diaries' is like I have been tempted by it, as I read recently that the author had turned down Johnny Depp tp play and produce it because he wanted to set it in the US.
  16. Welcome to the forum I like hostorical novels too
  17. Hello hope you enjoy yourself
