Is it about conjoined twins? I've read that book and I think I enjoyed it.

I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.

Just finished re-reading "Fugalaça" by Maíra Dias Gomes (half-biographic fiction about a girl who lost her father at the age of 11 and went trhough an intense adolescence "sex, drugs and rock n' roll" style)

Now I'm on the beginning of Nietzsche's "Beyond Good and Evil". Loving it.

I am currently reading The Shining by Stephen King. It's really good so far. I hope to watch the movie once I'm done with the book.

You all have amazing taste in books, I am very impressed. Currently reading Harvesting the heart by Jodi Piccoult but I wouldn't recommend it...it doesn't flow and draw you in the way her other books do.

Also part way through (re-reading) 'The Time Travellers Wife', can't remember who it's by though.
