I am reading B**llocks to Alton Towers, which my son bought me. It is interesting but quirky. |

Brave New World.......what a surprise! lol Kate.....I'm thinking of putting a Mark Billingham up for nomination in the next GReaders vote. I haven't read Burning Girl yet, but the couple that I have read have been great |

Dee, mmmm.... I've got about 100 pgs left to read. I thought the idea was good, but the characters seem a wee bit wishy-washy to me. I would recommend it though, Kate x |

Teresa, I normally read Dean Koontz, Graham Masterton never really been able to get into Stephen King. But I saw this Rose Madder book in the library and thought I'd give it a go, and I really enjoyed it, So I thought i'd branch out a bit more. The one you are reading now is that a science fiction one of his? And is it good? x |

ROFLMAO Oh Dear, I am really in a bad way. I knew I had posted a reply but couldn't see it. Took me ages to find it then I realised I'd posted my book on Pauls' thread by accident. Aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaah Ok, I'll try again. LOL I am reading A Breath Of Snow And Ashes by Diane Gabaldon It's part of the Jamie Fraser series. I would read a lot more of it if it wasn't for these boards !!!!!!!!!!! There you go , got there in the end. LOL |

Anne, I've read The Da Vinci Code (who hasn't! lol) I want to read Angels and Demons next. Is that any good? Jeanette, I love Mark Billingham's books. They twist and turn all over the place. I've read a few of his books now, unlike other authors who I've guessed who the killer was, with his I'm always wrong! x |

Kate, the Dark Tower series is his best work and has taken years to write so far. I recommend you read from volume 1 though, or they won't make sense. Not sci fi, but very surreal in parts, it sort of takes place in a sort of 'other' world, could be future, possibly post nuclear, nobody really knows. Wierd things happen, and I couldn't put the first three down. Try Volume 1, its called 'The Gunslinger'. I bet you will want to read the rest then. |
