finished Much Ado About Nothing...was a bit farfetched. Even by Shakespeare's standards. Did like Beatrice and Benedick's banter though, even if a lot of it was a little too obsessed with the cuckolding jokes.

James Patterson - Big Bad Wolf
a gripping read about an internet site where those rich enough can order "people" to be kidnapped to order in order to sexually abuse them, and ultimately kill them (a twist on the Hostel type theme).

I've only just started reading his Cross books, though I've seen Morgan Freeman in Along Came A Spider and Kiss the Girls which I thought were really good films. Love his writing style. About to start reading Violets are Blue.

I have started reading "I never fancied him anyway" by Claudia Carroll. It's a good read so far. About a 28 year old woman who can see into other people's futures. Her and her friends are trying to find a "DSM" lol!

I'll make it my daytime book - usually have two on the go, one for daylight hours and one for bed. This one wouldn't do for bed - I wouldn't sleep a wink! But I'll definitely give it a go..............

The Jane Austen Book Club by Karen Joy Fowler,I'm doing a romanticism for an English project so I figure this is a pretty good book to reading at the moment and it was on my to-read shelf anyways.
