I picked it up becvause it was half price with the newspaper... but it's totally hooked me in

Linwood Barclay wrote it, 'No Time for Goodbye'

Haven't heard of this author before, but enjoyed reading the book.

What's everyone else reading?

I'm reading Isabella Moon by Laura Benedict. Early days with it and I'm only reading a few pages at bed time, but it's really good.

i cant even remember the title or author of the one i'm trawling through! i'm usually a very quick reader, i know it's a thriller with a serial killer, but it's so hard going, i'll probably give it another few nights. pete is really enjoying the new pratchett book, it's not a discworld so i had to talk him into it, lol. but he said all the wit is there and he's loving it, in case you aint got it yet ES!

think i might try something lighter too, got belle du jour ages ago n cos i stash books all over i forget about them, lol.

Belle de jour is a light read, I didn't think a lot to it but you might enjoy it after something heavy.

I went to Liverpool on the train yesterday so I read loads of the Isabella Moon book on the journey. I've very nearly finished it. It's quite involved so I'm glad that I had some time to get really into it - reading a little at bed time wasn't really enough to draw me in properly. Anyway if anyone wants to read it after me let me know.

we should do a book swap! lol.

whenever I read Pratchett....which is most of the time when I am reading I try and imagine the book as a movie and cast well known actors in their parts...it's the same with Tom Sharpe....the thing is most of Tom Sharpes characters could easily be played by Rik Mayal and Ade Edmondson....especially Kommandant van Heerden and Constable Els from Riotous Assembly and the other South Africa book.

....sad or what... i alternate between reading a dictionary( have to keep my hand in for when a mate visits and we play scrabble) and a book about 'artists'...now on jean-auguste-dominique Ingres... who you may ask?... give me a few weeks and i might be able to tell you!!!!

SAD!!!!!

Hi I am reading Full Moon Rising By Keri Arthur, best way to discribe it ...Sex in the City Meets Vampire's and Werewolf's. I also love Terry Prachett
Luv Jane

oh yes please..... cant find people to play with me...... i live a very shealtered life.....
messy stamping, scrabble...were we parted at birth? xxx

I love scrabble too! DH won't pay very often as I usually win!

Well I've just finished my book and I have to say that I am most disappointed by the ending It just wasn't what I was expecting and not what I would have writetn if it was my story!! I like a tidy ending not things left up in the air. I think I'll have to make one up so I can settle!! I'm so sad!

A book swap would be cool - how could we do it?

well i'd suggest putting a few titles on here if FT/ES are willing, and then first come first served basis, postage paid by sender, but we'd need to find a swap each to be fair, so if we each put say....5 on at a time. obviously we'd have to ask FT/ES before we do anything.


could we have a yeah or a nay please FT/ES.

Go for it girls, whoever wants to organise it can start a book swap thread to keep it all together

cheers!!!!!!!!!!!

just a few ground rules here.

we must all keep up our end of the bargain and it has absolutely nothing to do with
fingertips, FT or ES, so if you take part, please no letting anyone down and if your late to post please let the person know. if we do this it's gotta be self policing.

i'll begin a thread, just cos i was here first, i'm not putting myself in charge or anything. if anyone wants to co-ordinate n stuff shout up.
