Yes! The book is quite good, perhaps a bit better than the movie. I was really pleased with how the movie turned out, though. Both are worth the time.

I am reading 'Crying For Help' by Casey Watson.
It's pretty good. My house mate lent it to me. They also lent me 'Sing You Home' by Jodie Picoult which is my next book to read.

Just began 'Starter for ten' by David Nicholls because i enjoyed 'one Day'. So far it's alright.

Oh and I always have a Harry potter book on the go just because...it's Harry Potter.

I'm currently reading the 'True Blood' series by Charlaine Harris.. Not too sure what I make of it at the minute.

I'm (still) reading Why It's Kicking Off Everywhere by Paul Mason. It's very interesting; unfortunately I have the concentration span of a gnat :sad:

The lovely Bones - Alice Sebold

I should try to actually finish books. From now on I'm only going to start a new book if I finished a book first.

I started reading Rascal by Sterling North today and will probably finish that in the morning. So far I have enjoyed it.

I have some old pony books by Jean Slaughter Doty, Josephine Pullein-Thompson and Ruby Ferguson ordered and they should arrive in the mail soon. Continuing on the theme of children's literature, I'm making my way through Laura Ingalls Wilder's books. I've read bits and pieces and adaptations over the years but I had only read the first two in their entirety. I just finished Farmer Boy so whenever I can get to the library I'll pick up the rest.

I have purchased The Minority Council by Kate Griffin today, which came in well before it's publication date :-D :hop: Paul Mason is just going to have to wait a while ...
