I've just finished reading a book called 'A song for tomorrow' by Alice Peterson which was an easy read yet quite inspirational. I recommend this..I would give it a good 4 stars.
This week I read a book called "Into the wild". It's an interesting story about a guy who just gives up his possessions and tries to 'live off the land'. The story is good but the way it is written is quite hard work. 3 stars.
I've just started Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine and I'm about 30 pages in. It has been good reading so far.

I liked the film Into The Wild so tried to read the book but found it hard going and gave up on it.
I liked Eleanor Oliphant.
Will put A Song For Tomorrow on my to read list.
I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.

I've read When Rabbit Howls two or three times now. I'm still not sure how I feel about it.

I gave up on Mini and Me, too much hard going for now. Started reading something I wouldn't usually choose but thought it might be nice to read something very lighthearted and cosy.
So now reading: Coming Home To The Comfort Food Cafe - Debbie Johnson.
I put it down on paper and then the ghost does not ache so much.

I gave this 3 stars (liked it). I did like reading it but I don't think I was following what was happening much. There were too many characters and they were sometimes referenced by their first name and sometimes by their surname so I couldn't remember who was who.
Continuing with Coming Home To The Comfort Food Cafe - Debbie Johnson.

Also reading This Is How: Help For The Self - Augusten Burroughs. I'm not really reading it as a self help book but rather because I like Augusten's stuff.

I'm reading the Birthmarked trilogy. Really enjoying it and I'd recommend! (TW for questionable treatment of pregnant women and babies - no abuse - and abortion)
Imperfection is underrated.

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
red ribbons were weaving
upon the young girls skin.
a trail of red weaved deep,
caused by pain from within
