Princess 25-11-2011 02:26 PM

Then Came You by Jennifer Weiner, am only a few chapters in but it's good so far.

Livia 25-11-2011 03:23 PM

She's a great thriller writer, this is the second I have/am reading by her, gripping.

Read a trashy romance. Suddenly Single. I wanted something brain numbing to send me to sleep

OMG what a complete pile of Beeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

Princess 07-12-2011 12:08 PM

Started a trashy romance myself last night, Dirty Things by Jo Carneige, I have to read loads of depressing plays for my exams at the moment so wanted a bit of a change.

Goblet Of Fire

1 and 3 have gone missing somewhere, so thought I'd just start with 4 and blast through them all. Always like to read them about every 2 years.

Shaun 23-12-2011 02:06 AM

The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo. I got it for free during freshers' week... it's very interesting so far

Seeker’s Mask by P.C. Hodgell :love:

I recently read Catching Fire and Mockingjay by Suzanne Collins, after reading The Hunger Games months ago, I really enjoyed them, I also read I am Number Four and The Power of Six by Pittacus Lore, there is another book which follows them but it doesn't come out til next year, and currently I am reading The Painted Man by Peter V. Brett, I have barely started but it's very interesting. Been reading a lot recently. :o

Josy 01-01-2012 11:31 AM

Finished Martina Coles Faithless at the beginning of the week, I have read all her books but have been disapointed with the last 2 she's done :(

Also just finished George R.R Martins, A Game Of Thrones and loved every minute of it, I started the second book in the series last night

Just finished reading The Girl With the Dragon Tattoo.

Spoiler:

I kinda predicted that Harriet wouldn't be dead, but I didn't see the serial-killing twist coming. Happy that Wernerstrom got his come-uppance but there were a couple of problems I had with the plot - surely Salander's transfer of the money to her accounts would've been noticed (although they were false accounts the banks could still surely shut them down?)

And I don't like the idea of Salander falling in love with Blomkvist.

It felt a lot like watching Forbrydelsen - not just because of the Scandinavian setting or quirky female protagonist, but the attention to detail with the characterisation and the really forthright twists (incest, rape, torture). I've got the next one so I'll read it soon :lovedup:

Just started Getting Away With It by Julie Cohen, it looked pretty out of my new Christmas pile and it got good reviews so hoping it's good.

Stu 02-01-2012 01:06 AM

I genuinly think those books work better as films than as books for those reasons you mentioned, Shaun. Though I love both.

Shaun 03-01-2012 02:51 AM

-needs to see both the Swedish and Daniel Craigish adaptations-

started reading The Girl Who Played With Fire earlier... I can tell I'm going to be in turmoil. I get too emotionally invested in Scandicrime.
