A Perfect Husband - William Corbbett. this is only about a page long and i thought it was a lovely little love story.

Launcelot and Guenever - Sir Thomas Murphy ive heard of this story and the plot line before but id never read the story. it was a good story although i found it really heavy going and my mind kept drifting off onto other thoughts. the lexis in the book was very challenging but i did want to carry it through to the end.

Penny Vincenzi - Windfall Waterstones Synopsis Cassia Fallon has been married to her doctor husband for seven years when her godmother leaves her a fortune. She is determined to be sensible, to stay in control. Suddenly, for the first time in her life, she is able to do exactly as she likes. She starts to question her marriage, her past, her present and future. The money gives her confidence, and her husband Edward can only look on resentfully as she resumes her medical career, sheds some of her domestic burdens, and re-forms old relationships - one of them of a most dangerous kind. But where did her legacy really come from and why? Too soon the windfall has become a corrupting force. One that Cassia cannot resist . . . My Reveiw - i absolutly loved this book it is one of those books where you pick it up and can't put it back down again. the plot revolves around three married couples that seem to be happy, however that is not the case. as it is set in 1930's london their is alot of focus on the status of people and how being divorced will affect their social status. the attitude in the book are sometimes hard to swallow as their was a lot of homophobia around in the 30's and this is reflected in the book. one of the main characters is gay but he has to hide it. there are themes of mystery, death, homophobia, richness, family, affairs, children, medicine and lots of others besides. this was a fantastic book and would highly recommend it to anyone. the only downsides would be the ammount of charachters in the book but a quick re-read of some of the pages was all that it took to grasp it. also, it is nearly 800 pages long so bit of a mamouth task but once i started to read i couldnt put it doen. i give it 4.5/5.0

i watched The Sound of Music yesterday
