Ive just finished reading Shadow of the Winds - and i throughly enjoyed it !!!!! Guess thats just me giving it a good review then - couldnt put it down. Done 1984 already - read that in a few days - i love Orwell lol So now its on to The Pact - but i dont fancy it somehow - dont know why - im assuming i cant love all three books so im expecting this one to be the loser of the three lol - ah well will have to give it a try.

I've just started The Shadow of the Wind and the others are on order from the library. It didn't stop me buying another book while I was in Asda today though. Think I'll have to suggest it for next month! J x
