I still haven't started Her Sister's Keeper. I just finished a book by Robin Cook who writes kinda medical thrillers. I can't remember the name now but the ending was rubbish. I'm now reading a book by Michael Connelly that my dad left here.... I'm almost running out of things to read again now... I can feel an amazon order coming on.....
My friend just sent me a book and it was brilliant - called Infidel by Ayaan Hirsi Ali. Its a true story about a girl growing up as a strict muslim and then how she changes as she starts to question everything. I enjoyed it so much that I ordered another book called Burned Alive - another true story about a girl who brought dishonour on her family and so they tried to kill her by dousing her with petrol and setting her alight. She survived though - its a chilling read.

If you've got My Sisters Keeper then its really worth reading Indie - much better than the film.

Have also just ordered Where God only comes to weep - a story about an Afghan woman who rebels against life within a forced marriage.......again not a bundle of laughs but sounds really compelling reading.
(In my defence I AM reading Sophie Kinsella's latest for a bit of light hearted humour in between all these tragic stories

I've tried Jilly (Riders) but she doesn't do it for me. It sounds sad but it reminds me of my mum sneaking off to read her Mills and Boons in the bath whilst smoking her Consulate ciggies (this was the 1980s remember
) and that isn't going to be me. Loads of my UK friends adore them though!

I am reading "Baby-Led Weaning" by Gill Rapley. Putting it into practice is proving to be so much fun!
