Heh, well yes. I'm like halfway through and kind of enjoying it though, 'cos it's easy to read and just pretty stupid really. Not exactly a 'good book' though!
Finished Eight Stories Up: An Adolescent Chooses Hope Over Suicide By Dequincy A. Lezine today. Was informative, but having read 4 others in the series a lot is repeated, plus aimed at americans so lots of mention of insurance etc.
Have read the first three stories out of Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams By Sylvia Plath - I like it. In some ways they are better than The Bell Jar, in others they are not. But will be dipping in and out of that book I think.
Going to start Impulse By Ellen Hopkins tonight I think!
You made up your mind to torture mine!
If you read a scar like a book, you will relise the story in which you over look
'Battle Royale' by Koshun Takami - excellent, but it's put me off the film, there was so much left out!
I love the film too, the book is an enjoyable read I felt.

Would you recommend this? I have read 'Ring' and quite enjoyed that, it had a brooding atmosphere.
I am currently reading The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.

I have nearly finished 'Nation' by Terry Pratchett, and next I am planning to read 'The Testament of Gideon Mack' by James Robertson, for the third time, as it's one of my favourite novels.
There are, it has been said, two types of people in the world. There are those who, when presented with a glass that is exactly half full, say: 'This glass is half full'. And then there are those who say: 'This glass is half empty'.
The world belongs, however, to those who can look at the glass and say: 'What's up with this glass? Excuse me? Excuse me? This is my glass? I don't think so. My glass was full! And it was a bigger glass!
I bought that Gideon Mack one recently mikey, the blurb intrigued me.
And I will probs get onto checking out Spiral eventually too, I'm sure his trilogy has a theme of water or something, Ring, Spiral and Dark Water.

I'm currently reading Angels and Demons by Dan Brown.
Just finished reading The DaVinci Code, which was amazing, so I'm expecting this book to be pretty similar if not better xD I've saw Angels and Demons on movie and it was pretty awesome.
I finished Impulse By Ellen Hopkins - I enjoyed it, and was nice to read something slightly 'different' for once, but did lack substance.
Also read today Monkey Taming By Hudith Fathallah - I enjoyed it and it was a quick and easy read. One of those eating disorder books that reminds you how quickly you can plunge into anorexia without realising it but that it is a battle to climb back out of it. It was aimed at teenages though so again did lack substance. But a 'nicer' eating disorder book compared to some that I have read.
