I picked up 'Twilight' at the airport the other week. I'm about halfway through and it's okay, but I'm not sure what all the hype is about.  :-\\\\

Oooh goodie.  I love tear jerkers.  Since it's Saturday night and my bf lives in the UK, I think I'll cuddle up with that on the couch.

Freed of all book club 'obligations' ;) for the time being, and having finished the four novel Twilight series, I am starting to read Laurie Lee's trilogy - Red Sky at Sunrise, which begins with Cider with Rosie.  Such lovely prose, so far, and it makes me want to visit Gloucestershire!  Maybe one of these days, I'll get an invitation?  ;D

I adore Laurie Lee!! (I have a signed copy of Cider!)

I'm currently reading the first of the Temperance Brennan books by Kathy Reichs, on a friend's recommendation. It's surprisingly well-written for what I thought would just be a fast-paced thriller!

I quite liked that one! It wasn't what I expected, but it was good!

Anytime.  :)

We've got Laurie Lee and we've got "Double G".  What more could you want?
