Eager to see what people vote on.... The one that I have suggested is really easy to read. only 167 pages.... It will make you think about the world and those "Coincidences" in an entirely new way... "Nothing is impossible, such is Coelho's message, as long as yu wish it with all your heart. No other book bears so much hope, small wonder its author became a guru among those in search of the meaning of life". "The Alchemist is a beautiful book about magic, dreams and the treasures we seek elsewhere and then find at our doorstep" ------------- formerly known as "Bee" Ethan ~ March 2003 Big 6 year old school boy!

Maybe we can have May as "read your own book month". Everyone can then report in with what they read and if it was any good etc etc.
Since we are already half-way through the month. :) Tara ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I have just finished reading Northern Lights by Phillip Pullman.
Bought a book across the road at Countdown called The Book of Lost Things by John Connolly. It looks awesome :) It's a grown up fairy tale / fable book. ------------- http://lilypie.com">

I'm not much of a book reader but the last book I did read was when I was still preggers. It was an autobiography, Gordon Ramsay - Humble Pie. He's awesome! I love that he's such a bastard on tv

How did I miss this thread? Well its not long until June now, so how about we choose for that. I think we need something short-ish as last month not many people finished it in time. Will have a think...
What is northern lights about Tara? Sounds familiar. I am reading The Virgins Lover by Phillipa Gregory at the mo - not my usual style and although its quite good, am really struggling. ------------- Aimee Hannah 22/10/05 Greer 11/02/08 |

Ladyluck, I read this book last year and LOVED it -- I thought it was one of the best books I've read in years. It was haunting, beautiful, creepy, thought-provoking, and poignant all at the same time. I couldn't put it down. |
