[miss_missy]

I am reading two books right now darkness falls and dead girls dont write letters. pretty good.

[Dave]

The last book I read was Slaughterhouse Five by Kurt Vonnegut. Really good.

[Bea]

I'm reading a few different things too:
Heart of the Dreaming - Di Morrissey
Heartland (series)
Thoroughbred (series)

[Amy]

Heartland! I'm reading that series to! Its really good.

[Bea]

I love it! Although it's kind of obvious that the writers losing her will to finish the series properly, i don't know if you've read book 19 but she seems to be searching for a quick way to finish the series!

[Amy]

I agree, but its still a good series.

[Bee]

Oooh I know of some good book! I absolutly love reading!! Its a triology, the first book is called ERAGON, the second is called ELDEST and the third is in publication. Its about a boy named Eragon who finds a dragon egg and has to defeat the 'king' (or whatever they called him lol) hes a bad guy!! haha, anywaays its a really awesome series!

I'm currently reading, and enjoying, THE CITY OF FALLING ANGELS. Venice is one of my favorite cities in the world and I love reading anything about it. This book is a little to "gossipy" but still interesting. By the same author as MIDNIGHT IN THE GARDEN OF GOOD AND EVIL.

[Bea]

Now i'm reading The Last Mile Home by Di Morrisey, seems like it's going to be pretty good.

[Amy]

Now I'm reading the Flambards series, its by K.M Peyton and I would recommend her books!

[Budgie_Birthday]

I am reading Losing A Life: A Daughters Memoir of Caregiving by Nancy Gerber. She is not that well known but you can find out about her at http://www.nancygerber.net. She is a great author. Mostly for adults I guess but I seem to like it so . . . . Thats what I am reading. :)

[Amy]

Whats it about? And how big is it?

[Budgie_Birthday]

It is not very big at all. Its not like a kiddy book but its not as big as the first Harry Potter book either. It is about how the author's dad had a stoke and how she had to take care of him, what she did, ad how his personality changed. Its very good actually. I'd recomend it to anyone who can read. :)

[Amy]

Oh i'll see if I spot it anywhere.

[Marcia]

I'm reading James Patterson's "Mary, Mary". It's excellent. I read a lot. In the past few weeks I've read Patricia Cornwell's "Predator" and "The Historian" by Elizabeth Kostova. Both were terrific. I really like mysteries over everything else. Sometimes I like Biography.

[Amy]

I love all horsey books! (Of course!)

[Dave]

I just got done reading the classic "The Catcher in the Rye". It was pretty good. Anybody else read this?

[Joey]

I liked the Da Vinci Code

[Amy]

I've read the first 3 books in the series of Flambards. It's about a 12 year old orphan girl, called Christina, who has to go and live with her uncle, in a house/farm called Flambards. They like hunting and she learns to ride and go hunting with them.
She LOVES horses and gets 2 of her own.

She falls in love with Will one of her cousins and runs away with him. He doesn't like hunting and finds a job flying aeroplanes (Which he loves to do) and he gets killed in WW1.

Christina, in the hope of finding somewhere to live, goes back to Flambards to find it run down and overgrown, with only 1 horse and the 2 servants left. With her Uncle, Will dead and her other cousin Mark missing, she takes charge, buying up horses and looking for willing workers.

Then she finds she's pregnant and has a baby girl called Isobel.
She goes and finds Marks ex-wife and she gives her a child who loves horses and likes to be called Tizzy.

Tizzy mentions ****, and old groom and memoires come flooding back to Christina. She goes and finds him and he comes and lives at Flambards.

Then a familiar face appears at the door, Mark! Mark proposes to her but she refuses, she and **** are in love.....

Dorathy, one of Christina's friends appears, she gets married to Mark but what will happen to Christina and ****...

That's as far as I have read up to! I want to read the next book!!! There are 7 books in the series, 3 of which I have read:

Flambards, (R)
Edge of the cloud, (R)
Flambards in summer, (R)
Flambards Divided,
A pattern of roses,
A midsummer night's death,
Prove yourself a hero.

These are excellent books all written by K.M Peyton.

(R) = I've read.

[Amy]

Oh good 'Flambards Divided' has just arrived in the post, I won it on: www.ebay.co.uk (http://www.ebay.co.uk)
