Nollaig Posted July 30, 2012 Posted July 30, 2012 Hi! "Forbidden" is on my to-read-list, but I've already heard great things about it! It's very very emotional and can lead you to a whole new way of thinking about love. Of course, keep your mind open, it's not the easiest book to read (: I've read Forbidden, I actually reviewed it for a publisher, you can it here on the BCF review blog: http://bcfreviews.wordpress.com/2010/06/29/forbidden-by-tabitha-suzuma/ I thought it was an excellent read!

bonzoi Posted July 31, 2012 Posted July 31, 2012 Another classic Martina Cole book. I read this in one weekend as I couldn't put it down. Love to read this. Having read all other Martina Cole books this one has not dissapointed me. It is fantasic insight into the other world of gangsters, prostitution, killing and drugs. Quote
pontalba Posted August 1, 2012 Posted August 1, 2012 Has anyone NOT read harry potter?... Me!! Although I confess, I read the last one, gave into the hype, and didn't see anything to it. Although that may not be totally fair, as I suspect one should have read the prior ones to make sense of the thing. Husband has read two, and was impressed by them. Much better than the negative press received by them. Definitely worth the positive raves. Quote
Umbrella Posted August 2, 2012 Posted August 2, 2012 Hi, I'm new Has anyone read Torey Haden's "The Silent Boy"? Quote
vodkafan Posted August 3, 2012 Posted August 3, 2012 Has anyone read the Pyke mysteries series by Andrew Pepper? I just had these recommended to me. Quote
Von Bek Posted August 9, 2012 Posted August 9, 2012 Has anyone read You coming with me lad by Mike Pannett but they a first book do you have to read them in order? My reading group read it and got a little confused in places, but it still works reasonably well as a stand alone novel. Having said that, it wasn't my cup of tea at all. Quote
frankie Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Has anyone read The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry by Rachel Joyce? This book keeps showing up on goodreads a lot these days, I like the title and have been really curious about it. Quote
chesilbeach Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 Has anyone read The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry by Rachel Joyce? This book keeps showing up on goodreads a lot these days, I like the title and have been really curious about it. I haven't read it, but it's on my wishlist, frankie. The author is reasonably local to me, and I keep seeing it in bookshop windows, and looking at the synopsis, it sounds right up my street. Quote
Janet Posted August 13, 2012 Posted August 13, 2012 It's on my Wish List too - it sounds great. Quote
bobby25 Posted August 14, 2012 Posted August 14, 2012 Has anyone NOT read harry potter?... Has anyone NOT read harry potter?... what is part of Harry Potter you mean? :smile: Quote
bookworm44 Posted August 15, 2012 Posted August 15, 2012 Has anyone read Rules of Civility by Amor Towles? Quote
al2584 Posted October 11, 2012 Posted October 11, 2012 has anyone read the fall of south bridge? Quote
frankie Posted October 15, 2012 Posted October 15, 2012 Has anyone read Rules of Civility by Amor Towles? I'd like to know this, too, I saw a copy of this at the library and the blurb sounded intriguing. Has anyone read The Good Mayor by Andrew Nicoll? Quote
Poolmonkey Posted October 27, 2012 Posted October 27, 2012 Just read The Owl Killers by Karen Maitland and see she has written a few more. Anyone else read her ? Any suggestions of which to read next ? Thanks Quote
Karsa Orlong Posted October 27, 2012 Posted October 27, 2012 ^^ The only other one of hers I've read is Company of Liars, which was decent but not as good as The Owl Killers, imo Quote
Poolmonkey Posted October 27, 2012 Posted October 27, 2012 The Owl Killers will be a difficult act to follow - it was so good. Maybe I`ll try another one and leave Company of Liars for another time. Quote
Janet Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 I've not read any Stuart McBride, Laura, but I know lots of people who like him. Have you looked at the views on Amazon? Has anyone read Madensky Square by Eva Ibbotson? It's today's 99p Kindle deal - I've read a few of hers and enjoyed them but I'm not clear whether this is an adult novel or a children's/YA one! (I realise I've left it a bit late - I've only just looked at my daily emails!). Quote
Michelle Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 I haven't read it Janet, but it looks like an adult book. Quote
Janet Posted November 5, 2012 Posted November 5, 2012 Thanks, Michelle. I did a bit more research and was coming to the same conclusion. I'm worried it might be a bit slushy, but for 99p I think I might give it a punt. Quote
Devi Posted November 21, 2012 Posted November 21, 2012 (edited) Has anyone read any of the following books? White Ghosts - Will Rhode Memory in Death - J.D. Robb Servant of the Bones - Anne Rice Life Expectancy - Dean Koontz Odd Thomas - Dean Koontz I only know the author Anne Rice. Edited November 21, 2012 by Devi Quote
