frankie Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I finished reading The Dirt and I simply loved it, I want to immedialy put it on the must re-read sometime -book list
nicx27 Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I've finished Time's Legacy by Barbara Erskine and thought it was fantastic. I love dual time narrative books and this had lots of mysticism in it too. Now over half way through The Upright Piano Player by David Abbott - another great read.
chesilbeach Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I started reading Obsidian Butterfly yesterday, but was out for the day and at almost 700 pages, it was just too big to carry around, so took Devil In Disguise by Julian Clary with me, and have read about 100 pages on the train and in the cafe.
Rawr Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I finished my re-read of Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows this afternoon
Pixie Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I am about 83 pages into Intensity by Dean Koontz and I am finding it rather silly. A killer that waves his hands in the air to call down a spider so he can eat it. Does anyone know if this gets any better?
Rawr Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I had to read the spoiler because sometimes I want to know what annoys people about books, and that is too funny, I would laugh out loud if I read that and be intrigued
Pixie Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I had to read the spoiler because sometimes I want to know what annoys people about books, and that is too funny, I would laugh out loud if I read that and be intrigued I think that is the problem, though. This isn't meant to be a funny book. At least, I don't think so.
Rawr Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 At the very least Koontz is entertaining you even for the wrong reasons
Nollaig Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I've read only 40 pages of Let The Right One in. Would like to get another chunk of it read tonight really. Just under 200 out of 520 to go though so I'm getting there.
Paige Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I finished The Timer Game by Susan Arnout Smith, which I really enjoyed and later today I plan to start reading Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister by Gregory Maguire.
Pixie Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 All right. I'm done with Intensity. I just can't take the lack of logic anymore. Sometimes Koontz works for me. This was not one of those times. I am going to start on Change of Heart by Jodi Picoult.
Rawr Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I really wanna read to find that part you were talking about I've read another few chapters of Frankenstein
Pixie Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I really wanna read to find that part you were talking about I've read another few chapters of Frankenstein I would send you the book for just the cost of shipping, but since you are on the other side of the pond from me, I doubt you would want to pay for even that. I haven't read Frankenstein yet, but it's in my TBR pile.
Kylie Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 I re-read an old childhood book yesterday: Penny Pollard's Diary by Robin Klein. It wasn't too bad. I've also read about 60 pages of Mort, which I'm really enjoying.
Peacefield Posted June 27, 2010 Posted June 27, 2010 Posted my review of The World to Come and am so far 50 pages into Blood Ties: The Turning .
frankie Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 I started reading Peyton Place by Grace Metalious last night and I'm not particularly impressed with it, I'll have to read on and see if I'll finish it at all.
Cookie Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 I've managed a few more chapters of No1 Detective Agency, I'm getting through it slowly but surely and I think that's about as good as it's going to get with my current mojo problems!
joe Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Have nearly finished reading Homeport and then I can continue reading The Passage which i am really enjoying
frankie Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Oh boy! I've just realised that it's soon July and the reading circle is doing Alice in Wonderland and I've yet to read it. I'd better get a move on and find my copy of it, ooooops!
Kylie Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 I've read about 120 pages of Mort today. It's by far the quickest I've read a Pratchett novel. For some reason they usually take me a week or more to read. I went to a couple of bookshops and bought two non-fiction books: The QI Book of Animals The Fruit & Vegetable Garden
~Andrea~ Posted June 28, 2010 Posted June 28, 2010 Oh boy! I've just realised that it's soon July and the reading circle is doing Alice in Wonderland and I've yet to read it. I'd better get a move on and find my copy of it, ooooops! At least its a pretty short read Frankie. Look forward to discussing with you in the circle
