KW Posted September 2, 2008 Author Posted September 2, 2008 I really wanted to finish it, I tried, I tried!!! Quote
madcow Posted September 2, 2008 Posted September 2, 2008 (edited) I really wanted to finish it, I tried, I tried!!! That's a shame, I really enjoyed it. It would be a boring place if we all liked the same things though Ps - Just had a peak at your new book and it looks good KW. Edited September 2, 2008 by madcow added a bit Quote
Michelle Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Jules, if Katherine doesn't mind, I can lend you my copy of A Season of Eden...? Quote
KW Posted September 3, 2008 Author Posted September 3, 2008 Katherine doesn't mind. I think one book for the whole of the UK should suffice, don't you???? ROTFL just pass it around, Michelle!! Quote
madcow Posted September 3, 2008 Posted September 3, 2008 Jules, if Katherine doesn't mind, I can lend you my copy of A Season of Eden...? Katherine doesn't mind. I think one book for the whole of the UK should suffice, don't you???? ROTFL just pass it around, Michelle!! Yeah thank you Quote
KW Posted September 4, 2008 Author Posted September 4, 2008 Be sure to let me know when you've read it. Quote
madcow Posted September 6, 2008 Posted September 6, 2008 Just to say A Season of Eden arrived safely this morning, looking forward to reading it just as soon as I have finished After You'd Gone. Quote
KW Posted September 19, 2008 Author Posted September 19, 2008 Now reading A Certain Slant of Light - so far so good. Quote
KW Posted October 3, 2008 Author Posted October 3, 2008 Put down a Certain Slant and picked up The Darkest Night - which, after 2 chapters was so unrealistic ( okay, it's paranormal, but why would a woman GO AFTER a man who threatens to tear her apart??? Just because she's attracted to him unexplainably?!?!?!) No. Not working. Shades of an old movie with the weak female running through the forest and she TRIPS!!! Not happening for me. Back to A Certain Slant.... Quote
Michelle Posted October 3, 2008 Posted October 3, 2008 Put down a Certain Slant and picked up The Darkest Night This one? That's not the sort of book I'd expect you to pick up! What about The Boy In The Striped Pyjamas? Quote
KW Posted October 3, 2008 Author Posted October 3, 2008 That's the one. Yeeks. I'm going to give SLANT another chance, if it doesn't sink its teeth in, then its on to STRIPED PJs. Quote
KW Posted October 6, 2008 Author Posted October 6, 2008 I ADORED Stripes. Very engaging. HIghly recommend! The ending....WOW. Quote
KW Posted October 9, 2008 Author Posted October 9, 2008 Now reading Living Dead Girl...so far interesting. Quote
KW Posted October 9, 2008 Author Posted October 9, 2008 Couldn't finish LIVING DEAD GIRL by Elisabeth Scott. Too unrealistic that this abducted girl wouldn't do SOMETHING to try to get away from this creep. (I've read better abduction stories ) She was so "dead" she couldn't try to escape?? Come one. Annoyed, I put the book down. Maybe she did escape her abductor in the end, I didn't care enough about her to plod through the repetitive story to find out. Quote
KW Posted October 9, 2008 Author Posted October 9, 2008 Gulp. Should I sugar coat it? No one does for me... Quote
Michelle Posted October 10, 2008 Posted October 10, 2008 No hon.. did you not see the wink? It just makes me laugh that you seem to struggle so much to find a book you enjoy.. and I would imagine that's partly down to you being a writer..? Quote
KW Posted October 22, 2008 Author Posted October 22, 2008 Now reading THERAPY. Really intrigued so far. Quote
KW Posted October 23, 2008 Author Posted October 23, 2008 Finished Therapy. WOW. Devoured that book. Really a page turner. Back to UGLIES now.... Quote
Michelle Posted October 23, 2008 Posted October 23, 2008 It certainly holds you, doesn't it!? I really want to read his other books.. it's a shame they're in German! Quote
KW Posted October 23, 2008 Author Posted October 23, 2008 I was FORCING myself NOT to skim!! I haven't been that engaged in a book in a while. Quote
Charm Posted November 13, 2008 Posted November 13, 2008 I saw you recommend 'The Vampire Chronicles' by LJ Smith and was wondering are they anything like Anne Rice vampire novels . I'm on the lookout for a good vampire read Quote
KW Posted January 6, 2009 Author Posted January 6, 2009 I saw you recommend 'The Vampire Chronicles' by LJ Smith and was wondering are they anything like Anne Rice vampire novels . I'm on the lookout for a good vampire read No, nothing like. They're a YA series. Quote
KW Posted January 6, 2009 Author Posted January 6, 2009 I'm reading the Hunger Games. Liking it so far, though the 'voice' of the main character sounds too adult for my liking. It IS a YA book, after all. Quote
