poppyshake Posted October 21, 2013 Posted October 21, 2013 Yes indeed, it is by Elizabeth Gaskell! Oh!! which one? which one? .. I've read four of hers Uhmmmm .. Cranford? Quote
frankie Posted October 21, 2013 Author Posted October 21, 2013 Yes, Cranford it is! Well done! The first name I *****'ed in the quote was actually 'Cranford' Eventhough it was a location, I thought it crucial to hide it, as it would have been a giveaway... Your turn! Quote

Yes .. leaving in 'Cranford' might have made it too easy Your turn! Goody!! I'm going for an easy one .. y'all know this "But there was one other thing that the grown-ups also knew, and it was this: that however small the chance might be of striking lucky, the chance is there. The chance had to be there." Quote

chaliepud Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 It was one of my favourite books and films when I was younger! Will be back in a bit with another but should get kids and dogs sorted first! :) Quote
chaliepud Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 "This was the moment when he usually woke up. When she fell, screaming, out of his grasp, into the abyss, taken by the nightmare, lost forever, this was where he usually sat up in his bed, covered in sweat, his heart beating so fast he thought he might die." Quote
frankie Posted October 22, 2013 Author Posted October 22, 2013 This sounds familiar somehow... I'll have a think! Quote
poppyshake Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 I don't usually read books with abyss's in .. it's not sounding familiar Quote
Athena Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 It sounds like a book I might enjoy reading, I'm not sure which one it could be, though (but then again I've not been sure about any of the ones mentioned here). Quote
chaliepud Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 Well it is on your GR wish list frankie, I think you would like it Pops. Michelle and Kylie both liked it and I thought Janet did too but I can't see any record of that. Quote
chaliepud Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 Actually I'm surprised you haven't read it Pops! Maybe I should answer some yes/no questions, or maybe Michelle will head over here! Quote
frankie Posted October 22, 2013 Author Posted October 22, 2013 Okay, my wishlist, but haven't read it? Hm.... Well, is it by a male author? Quote
Michelle Posted October 22, 2013 Posted October 22, 2013 It's not sounding familiar.. is it YA? Quote
chaliepud Posted October 23, 2013 Posted October 23, 2013 Any ideas? Or more clues.. I really thought this wouod be one more of you have read. Quote
