^Thanks for the PM.

i have read her other one called A Note of Madness which was the first one and A Voice in the Distance was the follow up.

I think she has another book which is on a different subject, but can't remember anything about it.

I am now reading Dracula along with lots of other people lol.

I'm about a third of the way through Dracula and loving it. After years of vampires being portrayed as nothing but sex gods with sharp teeth, it's so refreshing to have a legitimately scary vampire. The captain's log is particularly chilling...

Finished The Doctor Will See you Now - Max Pemberton. About to start Harvesting the Heart - Jodi Picoult.

^I am going to download The Doctor Will See You Now to read on the plane when I go away. Is it as good as his other books?

I need to get Dracula from my sister, probably tomorrow. I'm reading Ironside by Holly Black, a modern faerie story.

A note of madness is amazing. So is the sequel.

Just started Dracula for the book club.

Just finished reading The Road by Cormac McCarthy. It was a set book for class so i never would have just picked it up. But it was actually pretty good.The last page I nearly started to cry.

I'm reading Dracula too. And Harry Potter 6 at night because Dracula is scary! :P

I am currently reading 2 books

Postcards From the Edge by Carrie Fisher which is insanely funny and I think she should write more.

And

Between the Bridge and the River by Craig Ferguson. Also funny...who would have thought a foul mouthed scotsman turned creepy, vulgar, late night lounge entertainer would be such a great writer. :)

Is TTSS any good? Don't really want to commit to ordering it from the library if it's not worth it.

I've just finished reading The Corner: A Year in the Life of an Inner-City Neighborhood. So, so, so much better than the HBO mini-series (and in my opinion HBO can do little wrong). A really gripping read, and quite moving. All the more so for knowing that it is real.

Othello by Shakespeare. It was hard work but I'm pleased I managed to persevere with it. And I can give my brain a rest and get back to normal fiction again now :-D

One of the chalet school books, by ebd. I find them very reassuring, because everything always comes right
