Polka Dot Rock Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 Ah brilliant, glad it's rockin' so far. It's featured on the Richard & Judy bookclub on Weds 7th Feb. Next Weds! I'm hoping I can (start and) finish it by then, as I'd like to join in. More likely, I'll have to tape it, lol. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted February 1, 2007 Author Share Posted February 1, 2007 I will need to watch it on Wednesday as well, I always thought about the Richard and Judy book club but never got around to it, I read 'The Kite Runner' when I caught one show...

Renniemist Posted February 1, 2007 Share Posted February 1, 2007 I bought it at Tescos this afternoon. I had not intended reading it for a while but if it is on Richard and Judy next week I may just give it a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weave Posted February 4, 2007 Author Share Posted February 4, 2007 I finished The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas by John Boyne. I think it is the most powerful and sad book I have read in awhile, so sad in fact I can not even write a review on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilywhite Posted February 4, 2007 Share Posted February 4, 2007 I just bought this yesterday. I saw a review in the Guardian and thought it looked really interesting. I need to know though, is it reflective sad or needing tissues sad??? Just so I know for work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Liz Posted February 11, 2007 Share Posted February 11, 2007 I've got that Gideon Mack one. Found a copy of it in a charity shop. Not sure whether it is meant to be any good or not, though. It would be good to see what you thought about it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Polka Dot Rock Posted February 26, 2007 Share Posted February 26, 2007 Hey Paula! I read The Girls and absolutely loved it - it's quite spoiled me for what to read next, as nothing seems good enough! I've written a wee bit about it in my book blog thread. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weave Posted February 28, 2007 Author Share Posted February 28, 2007 I am also finished 'The Testament of Gideon Mack' by James Robertson, its easy to read but it is quite a bizarre book, I get what he is all about?, about where he is going?, but my main worry is, do I care?
