Chrissy Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Hello W! Welcome to the forum. Which one have you read? The crochet one, or the Neil Gaiman?
wmarshall81 Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Oh gosh, think i have gone wrong already! though I was replying to Kate about Revenge of the wedding planner! sorry!
Chrissy Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 (edited) That was probably me leaping in too quick, not you! ETA What authors / books are you into W? Edited April 29, 2010 by Chrissy
wmarshall81 Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Hi Chrissy! I like Danielle Steel, Tilly Bagshaw, Jackie Collins and more recently Debbie Macomber. I do like chick lit but as long as it has a good story with characters I can relate with! and you....
Chrissy Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Hi Chrissy! I like Danielle Steel, Tilly Bagshaw, Jackie Collins and more recently Debbie Macomber. I do like chick lit but as long as it has a good story with characters I can relate with! and you.... Crime or quirky usually, although this place has definitely sent me off into different genres. My wishlists and To Be Read pile(s) are huge now! We have a sub section dedicated to Women's Fiction / Chick Lit. here, you may enjoy having a good rummage through there.
wmarshall81 Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Thanks for your help, I will check this out and hopefully get lots of ideas for new authors books! Wendy
Ooshie Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 I have taken on extra hours at work for the next few weeks, so I'm not getting half as much reading done as usual. Just as well I'm not still trying to get through Crimson Petal or The Stand! Up to page 150 in Wicked, and hoping to get a few more pages read before I go to sleep.
ned Posted April 29, 2010 Posted April 29, 2010 Just started Watchman by Ian Rankin. I read Peril At End House by Agatha Christie while travelling today. I quite enjoyed the ending
dave165 Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 just coming to the end of Five Ring Circus by Jon Cleary part of a very good series about a Sydney police detective. Any one who likes Ian Rankin or similar might enjoy them.
Cookie Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 I'm half way through Q and A now, I like it but it doesn't have that unputdownable quality. I think I am going to give up on Labyrinth by Kate Mosse. I also ordered 3 new books today. A beginners crochet one, the new House of Night - Burned, and the 4th Merry Gentry book. I'm a happy shopper:mrgreen: I also received Ash - Malinda Lo in the post.
chesilbeach Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 I'm about two thirds of the way through Shiver now, and I've just reserved the following books at the library: Airhead - Meg Cabot Being Nikki - Meg Cabot The Laughing Corpse - Laurell K. Hamilton Need - Carrie Jones Burned - P. C. and Kristin Cast Wicked - Gregory Maguire
chrysalis_stage Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 @ chesilbeach - The Laughing Corpse - Laurell K. Hamilton is an intriguing book title
Jim Mappelle Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 Plodding on with "Exit Music". Present from daughter; 3 book set by Stuart MacBride, Cold Granite; Dying Light & Broken Skin. Well chuffed! Jim
Kylie Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 I started and finished Hating Alison Ashley today and read a few pages of Much Obliged, Jeeves.

Weave Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 I am still reading 'The Reformed Vampire Support Group' by Catherine Jinks and I just ordered 'Monsters of Men' by Patrick Ness
Coffin Nail Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 Got fed up with Ian Rankin's Question of Blood as I'd seen it on TV, so I started The Bone Garden--Tess Gerritsen instead. Really enjoying it so far.
MuggleMagic Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 I've finished reading Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel. I loved it! I've read the story of Henry VIII and Anne Boleyn so many times but it was really refreshing to read about it through the eyes of Cromwell. I'm overjoyed to hear that the author will be writing a sequel. I read the first three chapters of The Wild Things by David Eggars this morning.
Cookie Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 I am still reading 'The Reformed Vampire Support Group' by Catherine Jinks Let me know how you get on with this book, I have it on my wish list.
Lucybird Posted April 30, 2010 Posted April 30, 2010 Am now on Book 3 of Middlesex and really into it
Weave Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 Let me know how you get on with this book, I have it on my wish list. Will do Cookie
chrysalis_stage Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 The Apple by Michel Faber arrived in the post this morning and I couldn't help but dive in, the foreward gave me goosebumps near the end Read more of Perdido Street Station by China Mieville last night and this morning too and its great so far, very vivid and imaginative.
Ooshie Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 ^ chrysalis_stage, I'm really looking forward to The Apple, but have to finish Wicked and read Q&A before I can allow myself to start on it! Your comment on the foreward is making me even more keen to get to it.
Kate Posted May 1, 2010 Posted May 1, 2010 I've just been to the library and took out: Wicked by Gregory Maguire Q & A by Vikas Swarup The Choice by Nicholas Sparks
