julissofine Posted March 26, 2008 Share Posted March 26, 2008 Orhan Pamuk - Istanbul I've read reviews of this book and they all said it's great. Been looking for it, but still couldn't find one. :( I was just finished reading "The Virgin Suicides" by Jeffrey Eugenides. Interesting story, it really makes me wondering about what had really happened. :thinking: Right now I'm reading "Match Made In Heaven" by Bob Mitchell.

Fixed Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Finished 'Deception Point'. I found it really thrilling, but Dan Brown frustrates me! He seems to use the same tricks, techniques, narrative styles, call it what you will, in all of his books. Some of the language used makes me cringe - he could be so much better. But it was still a very unputdownable book and I'll no doubt read Digital Fortress in the near future. Funny, I heard 'The Gun Seller' mentioned somewhere the other day. It sounds good - must be if it's by Hugh Laurie (unless anyone that's read it feels otherwise...) so I'll add that to my 'to do' list... I started Sebastian Faulks' 'Birdsong' for about the fifth time yesterday. I always read the first 50-or-so pages but for some weird reason get daunted by it and put it down, changing it for something else. But I'm determined to see it through this time.

Bonus_mosher Posted March 30, 2008 Share Posted March 30, 2008 Busy readin Stephen King's IT. Always been a fan of the movie, which i have on dvd. saw it when I was little and it scared the life outta me. Never read the book so when the opportunity came along I grabbed it, I have to say, having never read anything by stephen king before (seen the movie adaptations, never got his books) I'm finding out why he's so critically acclaimed, he writes so gracefully. it's a joy, and with me having seen the movie it's easier because I can visualise places and people. I reccommend it. xo Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pseudonym Posted April 20, 2008 Share Posted April 20, 2008 I just finished reading "Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince", and I'm starting on Stephen King's "It" Why don't you read the last harry Potter book? its the best one. And as Ive said, do not read IT. Trust me you will hate it. Watch the movie and youll see why but it will only take you two hours not two months.

Fixed Posted April 21, 2008 Share Posted April 21, 2008 Nearly finished Birdsong. It's given me a real urge to go and visit battlefields. How morbid of me. A great book. Can't wait to see what the film will be like. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
