Stephanie2008 Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 I finished Pride and Prejudice last night and read All Steamed Up by Kathy Letter today (it was only 38 pages ). I'm not sure what to read next.
Kenny Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 I'm reading Can't Be Arsed 101 Things not to do before you die by Richard Wilson. It's pretty funny so far.
chesilbeach Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Read about 120 pages of The Shoe Queen by Anna Davis today, and I'm so pleased ii recommended it, as I absolutely adore it so far! Will try and finish it this evening if I can. I'm reading Can't Be Arsed 101 Things not to do before you die by Richard Wilson. It's pretty funny so far. I got that for Christmas! Good to hear it's funny so I can look forward to reading it now

Lucybird Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Have got just over 100 pages left of The Lucifer Effect now
jankensan Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 A sad day for reading for me today. Grabbed 10 minutes in my lunch break to read a few pages of 'Let the Right One In' (currently reading lots of vampire novels)
Charm Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 A sad day for reading for me today. Grabbed 10 minutes in my lunch break to read a few pages of 'Let the Right One In' (currently reading lots of vampire novels) This was one of my favourite books of last year jankensan, I hope you're enjoying it too!
catwoman Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Only 70 pages left of Stolen, but I have a really bad Ear infection, I am struggling to read it, even though I am enjoying it.
anisia Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 I am finally almost done with Lost Dogs and Lonely Hearts. It's taken me way too long and it's a cute book! Life is too busy though... I knew reading time would be less after the holiday.
Moon Maiden Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 I've not had time to read today (reviewing documents for work really doesn't count!) so am just off to bed to read another chapter of 'Belching Out The Devil' by Mark Thomas - all about The Coca Cola company and very interesting reading so far.
Charm Posted January 11, 2010 Posted January 11, 2010 Only 70 pages left of Stolen, but I have a really bad Ear infection, I am struggling to read it, even though I am enjoying it. Aww so sorry to hear you have an ear infection, they're horrible! I hope it eases soon catwoman I am pleased you are liking Stolen in the end though
ned Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 I've not had time to read today (reviewing documents for work really doesn't count!) so am just off to bed to read another chapter of 'Belching Out The Devil' by Mark Thomas - all about The Coca Cola company and very interesting reading so far. Ohhhhh, that does sound good
Kate Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 I'm doing some dissertation reading at the moment so am reading Beatniks by Tony Litt
Chrissy Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 Weel, I finally managed to find some proper time to read the very short 'Fahrenheit 451' by Ray Bradbury. I read this years ago, and had almost completely forgotten the text. It was good to read it again, although I still have a ghostly shiver of "Oh dear, some of this is too close to home society wise!". I am pondering what to read next, as I have too much from which to choose. I love being able to say that!
Kylie Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 I just finished Fahrenheit 451 too. For such a short read, it sure took me a long time, but I kept getting distracted by other books. I'll be concentrating solely on Ella Minnow Pea now.
BookJumper Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 I am pondering what to read next, as I have too much from which to choose. I love being able to say that!I agree it's hard to explain to the non-biblioholic, though. If I return home with new books, OH will say 'but you've got a shelf-ful of them already', and I need to explain how it's all a matter of choice - if I only had one book on Mount TBR, it would inevitably never be the book I want to read when I finish the one I'm working on the time. You wouldn't have a DVD collection made up of a single film you haven't seen, would you now?!
Nollaig Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 I read over 120 pages last night, hello mojo! Planning to finish that book (Black Sun Rising) tonight and start the second in the trilogy (When True Night Falls) tonight/tomorrow. Still also reading through my Oscar Wilde book, which I'm nearly finished.
catwoman Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 Ohhhhh, that does sound good I agree that does! As for me well, I could not get an appointment with the doctor but she did call and there will be a perscrition waiting for me. Whooo Hooo . I stll had to go up the village anyway as my copy of Stolen had to go back today as it was already a day late. So I went to the coffee shop and finished it. I LOVED IT! Finally I know what all the fuss is about I looked in the charity shops and I found no books, a first for me I think. I did however pick up a couple Horrible Histories magazines for my kids. Not sure what to start next, due to not feeling well I think I will start with a easy and fairly quick book; I am going to start Witch Child by Celia Rees. It is only 235 pages long with pretty big writing! So I think this is going to be a real quick read!
chesilbeach Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 Finished the excellent The Shoe Queen by Anna Davis. If only ii were still around, I could thank her for the fantastic recommendation.
pipread Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 I`ve nearly finished The Kite Runner, such a good story and I picked up Stolen - Tess Gerritsen from our book swap at work.
ned Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 There is nothing on TV and i don't fancy going out so i think i'll just have a shower and go to bed and spend a couple of hours reading Cujo.
Lucybird Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 Got about 80 pages of The Lucifer Effect left now, if I don't finish it this week, someone poke me til I do!
Moon Maiden Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 Ohhhhh, that does sound good I can also recommend his previous book - 'As Used On The Famous Nelson Mandela', which is all about the arms trade. Shocking, facinating and funny! Given that I tend to stick more to fiction, I really do enjoy his books.
catwoman Posted January 12, 2010 Posted January 12, 2010 Hearly finished the Witch Child give it another hour and I will be done I think, talk about a short book. I am really disspointed so far and only find it interesting in a few places.
