Yesterday I finished Overheard in a Dream By Torey Hayden. It was okay but not as good as her books based on children she has worked with. It did have many layers but it just didn't hit me and I know I won't remember it as much as One Child, and Just Another Kid
I am now about a third of the way through Look Back in Hunger By Joe Brand. It is okay, and I can hear her saying the words to me as I read it. You can tell it is her writing but it hasn't done anything for me just yet. I don't normally read autobiography's of famous people, it is normal memoirs about mental health or abuse etc, so it is a different type of book for me! |
Finished Joe Brands autobiography Look Back in Hunger - it was okay....
Now starting Electroboy By Andy Behrman |
"The Children's Book" by AS Byatt.
It reminds me so much of a lot of things I read for my [English] degree, and gives me a whole new perspective on that era. [Leading into the 20th Century] There's stuff about love, art, politics, mental illness. It's a long book - 600 pages - but well worth the read if you like something a bit different and more intense. |
I'm still waiting for Lord of the Flies to be delivered.
I miss reading :( |
Go to the library. :)
|
Then I'll be part way through a book when it arrives.
|
When's it due to arrive? [You should see my pile of books to read! Ha!]

It also includes sexual abuse issues and women's quest for freedom. Forgot those in my earlier description! Catherine, on my pile I have - Before the Storm by Diana Chamberlain. Bad, mad and sad by Lisa Appignanesi Never Tell by Claire Seeber The Interpretation of Murder by Jed Rubenfeld The Tenth Circle by Jodi Picoult Does stress damage the brain? by someone Bremner ... yeah! Only the Diana Chamberlain and stress ones are library books, so the rest are flexible, to start any time reads! |
