I've just finished 'The virgin suicides'.Useless to say I found the movie a million times better than the book.
You can buy me with a coffee,I'm so cheap. Got bitten fingernails&a head full of past;Got a broken heart&your name on my cast.
&&I wanted her to tell me that she will never wake me.
'The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-Time' was good but I didn't really enjoy it as such. It's not the kind of book you can relax into if that makes sense.
I'm now reading 'The House of Sleep' by Jonathon Coe, which is brilliant.
I've read The House of Sleep and though it was great. I also read another Coe novel but can't remember the name off top of my head. He's on my list for other reads.

I FINALLY finished 'Bloodletting' By Victoria Leatham. I didn't think it was as bad as people said it was, though the ending was a little 'off'. Though it did take me over a month to read..when I was reading it, it was 'gripping' but when it was sitting on the bedside table it didn't make me want to read it.
Am about to start 'Good girls do swallow' By Rachael Oakes-Ash
Life can be beautiful if you let it.
Step back, breathe and take it in
Today I finished Shadow of a Dark Queen by Raymond E. Feist. I'm not a big fan of fantasy, and that boring, predictable, cliché-ridden piece of trash is precisely why. It's not the longest I've ever spent reading a book, but it bloody felt like it.
I also read Waiting For Godot by Samuel Beckett, which I loved. In all its bizarre, unresolved glory.
I'm currently reading (by which I mean I'll start it today at some point) a biography of Allen Ginsberg, written by Barry Miles.
And after that I plan to read Catch-22 by Joseph Heller.
Just finished The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Nighttime, which I loved. Now I'm reading Whispers: The Voices of Paranoia, which I'm not sure that I like yet.
I finished Cabal: The Nightbreed by Clive Barker the other day, pretty interesting and strange tale and a good read which was pretty easy to get through.
Currently reading Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury and re-reading Harry Potter and The Prisoner of Azkaban which is tied with Goblet for my fave Potter book.

I have read Sectioned: A Life Interrupted By John O'Donoghue - began okay but then it got a bit boring and repetitive at the end.
Read Peter Pan in Scarlet - I didn't enjoy it that much, think it was maybe too young for me.
Read Thirteen Reasons Why By Jay Asher - quick read that kept you reading, but lacked substance.
About to start Eight Stories Up: An Adolescent Chooses Hope Over Suicide By Dequincy A. Lezine - another book in the 'Adolescent Mental Health Initiative'
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
I have just read 'Red Tears' by someoneorother and now I'm reading 'The Madolescents' by Chrissie Glazebrook. Think I need to introduce something less emo into my reading list. I am enjoying 'The Madolescents' though and 'Red Tears' was okay, I think I'd have enjoyed it a lot more when I was younger.
