Started it again last night. Very strange re-reading a book after just a few weeks but it's already proving quite interesting to do so. Not sure how long I'll be as I'm reading an autobiog too. Are we discussing once everyones finished or speaking in spoilers about it as we read?

Speak in spoilers would be ok I reckon if you state which chapter it is. How does everyone else feel about that?

ok, I've read the first 3 chapters now

Spoiler:

hhhmmmm, so far the fact that every second line is describing how good looking everyone is("my husband is dead but look how shiny my hair is", is annoying. and yes Claudia I too would like to kill Laura!

I'm only 3 chapters in so the story hasn't really kicked off yet, I'm not going to write it off just yet!

I'm enjoying reading it but Laura is an annoying woman so far. If it turns out to be rubbish we'll have a group vote to ban you from TiBB.

I'm on to chapter 21 now

Spoiler:

I'm getting into it now, like Kerry said it is a bit far fetched, like for example Stan attacking and almost raping Laura, what does she do? ..........nothing, call the police? No. Tell her sister who is dating him? No. I don't see the logic there at all, I mean she thinks it's better to let her fragile sister, who has previously been the victim of violence and rape with a violent man and a potential rapists, rather than hurt her feelings??? I don't get it. Also, Laura isn't annoying me that much anymore, Serita her best friend really annoys me now instead, I'd love to punch her. And that line they keep saying through the book really annoys me, "You're a good friend" "The Best" lol. right, I sound like I hate the book, but I actually don't, yeah, it's a tad far fetched and the whole storyline is a bit obvious (I think) but at the same time I'm still curious to know whether or not my suspicions are correct. So, I'm just going with it and enjoying the ride!

Ok, I've finished it (is anyone else even reading it???)

Spoiler:

ok, well, I'll steal Kerrys phrase one more time - very, very far fetched sums it all up really, especially the bit about James aborting the baby and making Mary pregnant again and her having the baby 2 months late without her realising lmao. Also, that surgeon who changed Davids face hahaha they need to employ him asap for people who really need it like burn victims etc! anyway, It was still enjoyable, I did believe it was Mary all along so it had a bit of a surprise element after all! Over all I'd rate it 5/10

I stopped reading it. I was remembering it too much to enjoy it. I did the first time, to a point, though agree with what Niamh says above.

Spoiler:

I'd stretch to 6/10 at best. It's quite a silly book though keeps you wondering I suppose
