It's great when you get to revisit books from your childhood and share them with your own children. My daughter loves "Where The Wild Things Are" as much as I did - reading the story now, I'm not sure what the appeal is as there isn't much to it - it must be the pictures that sparked my imagination!

Update: Lucifers Hammer 5/10 - bit dated and first half of book waaayyy too long. Lilith's Brood on the other hand is fab if you like sci-fi - having a hard time putting it down. Was up until 12.30 last night - way past my bedtime!

Reading Stephen King right now - Just After Sunset (short stories) :thumbsup:

ALready have my next book lined up - Dan Brown's The Lost Symbol. Can't wait.

Just finished 'The Brightest Star in the Sky', Marian Keyes. Really liked it but not as much as the others (but could be that her others were so good, it's not that this one is bad if that makes sense!).

Re: Good book
 

Yeah I get that with certain authors too Peeps.

Re: Good book
 

Yeah - I was disappointed with that one, it was almost like she felt she had to bung a book out and that was it.

Just finished reading Under The Dome by Stephen King - was a lovely surprise to see it cos I didn't know he had one out... and I didn't want it to end!

Tony Park has been described as an Aussie cross between Wilbur Smith and Tom Clancy. I've lapped up each one he has put out to date and consider him as being the next Wilbur Smith with a more contemporary context:

I used to love reading 'The Borrowers' as a kid. My sister used to hide it and sneak upstairs to read it herself. :eek:

Re: Good book
 

Half way through James Herbert's The Secret of Crickley Hall, and it's brilliant :thumbsup:

Re: Good book
 

Round Irelajnd with a Fridge by Tony Hawks - if the rest of the book is as good as the first couple of chapters I shall laugh the whole way through it. I mean, wy on earth would anyone want to hitch-hike round Ireland - with a fridge :ohmy:

Re: Good book
 

I am reading Stephen Kings Just Before Sunset... short stories.. they are quite excellent.. :thumbup:

Em x

PS I am not a huge short stories fan... however, these ones are really well written and draw you in after a couple of sentences! ;)

Re: Good book
 

I just read that before this one, I loved them all, it's brill :thumbsup:

Re: Good book
 

I love it.. haven't read it all yet... I quite like just dipping into the stories and then reading something else..

On a different level, I have just bought Back to Eden by Jethro Kloss... its a very old book (re-published) and for those who would like to look at alternative ways of addressing health issues and healthy living etc...

I have also just bought Don't sweat the small stuff (for women)... when life becomes a bit too much I read a chapter.. ;)
