How are you taking to it?

I am reading The Perks of Being a Wallflower by Stephen Chbosky.

I'm struggling to get into it, it's a bit strange but I think it will get better!

I never realised there were more Harry Potter related books, the one about Nicholas Flamel sounds like a good one to read next what's it like?

I am reading Confessions of a Male Nurse.

It's interesting, I like books like this. Could do with a nice fiction book to read afterwards though.

MissGranger 26-02-2014 12:00 PM

That sounds really interesting!

I'm reading three books currently;

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets, Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them, and Where Are The Children by Mary Higgins Clark.

Really getting into where are the children.

MissGranger 26-02-2014 02:08 PM

Can I ask how are you finding Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them?

-------------------- 26-02-2014 02:29 PM

Its interesting. No luck finding these creatures yet though.
The scribbles from Harry, Ron and Hermione are pretty amusing.

Have you read it?

MissGranger 26-02-2014 04:40 PM

It sounds good! No I haven't yet but I hope to soon.

I need this book!

Oh! I just bought this book along with The Magician: The Secrets of the IImmortal Nicholas Flamel

Both fun reads.

Yesterday I finished A Delusion Of Satan by Frances Hill. It was a very interesting insight into the Salem Witch Trials, though I felt the author's opinions on the psychology behind it a little bit flimsy and reliant on outmoded Freudian theories. Still a compelling read though.

I also got started on a collection of Doctor Who ebooks which were made into a large printed volume for the show's 50th anniversary. I read two of the stories, one of which was good, the other was utter garbage, but then again it was written by Eoin Colfer so only a fool would expect good things there.

I just started a game of thrones.

Ive been looking at these books at the book shop for years but always thought they would be really difficult to read. I am normally not too fond of series that are more than 3-5 books at most and as i knew there would be more in this series i kept away from them.

However i could get all 5 really cheap and i like fantasy and the first season on tv. (Havent seen more than that) and i found out that it is not hard to read at all. I am reading it in english (danish is my first language) and i have no trouble understanding it at all. So far i am entertained.

Enthused 28-02-2014 05:19 PM

I envy you. GoT is amazing. So many subplots later on in the series that a second read through is a must!

The War Doctor 28-02-2014 05:54 PM

A Song of Ice and Fire is one of my favourite book series', I finished the fifth book a few months ago and am eagerly awaiting the sixth. I hope you enjoy it!

I don't think A Dance of Dragons is disappointing. A Feast For Crows is a bit of a drag though, it's very slow moving and not as exciting as the other books in the series. Still worth reading, but definitely a bit of a come-down from Storm of Swords.

Enthused 03-03-2014 05:29 PM

Currently reading Kenobi. Really really good, am enjoying it a lot.

Tig 03-03-2014 11:22 PM

I've just finished reading 'Don't You Forget About Me' by Alexandra Potter which was such a feel-good book and an easy read.

Now moved on to 'Play Dead' by Harlan Coben.
