Weave Posted January 8, 2007 Author Posted January 8, 2007 I am almost finished 'Eragon' and I have really enjoyed it so far, I am just frustrated with myself now because I can't seem to read it fast enough! Quote
Weave Posted January 12, 2007 Author Posted January 12, 2007 Currently reading: Eldest by Christopher Paolini The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova:readingtwo: Quote
Liz Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 My sister is reading The Historian at the moment. I think she's struggling with it a bit as she started it end of Nov/beginning of Dec, and she is half way through it. She's letting me borrow it after her. Quote
Louiseog Posted January 12, 2007 Posted January 12, 2007 I loved this book, one of my top ten last year. Quote
Weave Posted January 20, 2007 Author Posted January 20, 2007 Currently reading: The Historian by Elizabeth Kostova, but I need to make more of an effort reading it. Stories we could tell by Tony Parsons. I started 'A Place Called Here' by Cecelia Ahern yesterday morning and I finished it this morning. An enjoyable read. Quote
everydayxangels Posted January 21, 2007 Posted January 21, 2007 I know people have had a difficult time getting into The Historian. Though I have heard, if you stick it out, that it's an enjoyable read. Quote
Weave Posted January 22, 2007 Author Posted January 22, 2007 I finished 'The Historian' by Elizabeth Kostova, I really enjoyed it, I meant to say it was a re-read, still enjoyable. The ex-wives's surivial guide was ok, very predictable though. Quote
Liz Posted January 22, 2007 Posted January 22, 2007 I think I'll definitely be having a go at The Historian when my sister has finished with it. Quote
Weave Posted January 23, 2007 Author Posted January 23, 2007 Finished 'Handbags and Halos' and it was not your usual chick literature book, there was a lot of depth to this book which I liked. Quote
Weave Posted January 24, 2007 Author Posted January 24, 2007 I just started reading 'Chocolat', I really like the style of Joanne Harris's style of writing, it could just be me but it so relaxed and care free. I have not seen the film, 'Chocolat', but I will renting it out real soon. 'Nocturnes' by John Connolly, is a assortment of different stories, so far so good. Quote
Janet Posted January 24, 2007 Posted January 24, 2007 I loved Chocolat. I really like Joanne Harris' books. Quote
Weave Posted January 26, 2007 Author Posted January 26, 2007 Nocturnes by John Connolly I am enjoying this book, the stories are good, especially the first one. Quote
Michelle Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 I'm sure I have this one upstairs... was the first one about a vicar? Quote
Weave Posted January 26, 2007 Author Posted January 26, 2007 I'm sure I have this one upstairs... was the first one about a vicar? Yeah, but the second story is about the vicar... Quote
Michelle Posted January 26, 2007 Posted January 26, 2007 Oh ok.. I think I read a couple, then got distracted. (Happens alot to me.. sigh!) Quote
Weave Posted January 27, 2007 Author Posted January 27, 2007 Oh ok.. I think I read a couple, then got distracted. (Happens alot to me.. sigh!) Me too Michelle, me too Quote
Weave Posted January 29, 2007 Author Posted January 29, 2007 I finally finished 'Nocturnes' by John Connolly, it was really good, review now completed and posted. Quote
Weave Posted January 29, 2007 Author Posted January 29, 2007 I finished 'Shopaholic & Baby' this morning. It was good, review to follow.. I am now starting 'Keeping Faith' by Jodi Picoult. Quote
madcow Posted January 29, 2007 Posted January 29, 2007 Look forward to hearing what you think of Keeping Faith, it's one of her books i haven't read yet. Quote
Weave Posted January 29, 2007 Author Posted January 29, 2007 Started reading 'The Girls' by Lori Lansens today Quote
Polka Dot Rock Posted January 30, 2007 Posted January 30, 2007 Ooh do tell me what you think m'dear, I'm really looking forward to reading it. But with no spoilers please, lol. Quote
Weave Posted February 1, 2007 Author Posted February 1, 2007 Will do PDR, So far, so good with 'The Girls', I know its only February but this is the best book I have read so far this year, the way it is written, the story is just excellent and I am looking forward to sharing my review with you all.
