I'm currently reading The Naming Of The Dead by Ian Rankin.

Took me to at least Chapter 2 before I was really into it because the story is set around the time of the 2005 G8 Summit in Gleneagles, which I didn't really know a whole lot about it so just found it tricky to enjoy to begin with. But now I'm nearly finished I'm really enjoying it and can't wait to find out the ending!

Ok.
I'm still reading The Forgotten Garden.
I need to read A Room of One's Own for the Book Club.
I need to read at least part of another book for my work course.
And I just got another book out yesterday too.
Agh!

I'm reading Small Island by Andrea Levy at the moment, as a part of my English Literature course. I don't usually like the books the set at school, but this one is actually quite good :)




Now I'll play your ghost as my ace, whenever I'm led astray.
But I am actually good, can't help it if we're tilted.
I'm in my right place, don't be a downer.
