PRG you read like 20 books a week. I don't know how you manage. I struggle getting to the end of one before they've made it into a movie  |

Plus most of the books I've read recently are pretty short. Lastly if I'm really enjoying a book I literally can't put it down - has to be forcibly removed from me |

Just finished that!  Pretty good, though I felt the ending was a bit rushed. I'm reading the third in this trilogy, Mockingjay |

A-Z of baby names! I don't think I will ever decide on just one. Maybe I will just wait until he can talk and he can name himself |

Now onto Christmas Books by Charles Dickens. This is one book that contains 5 of his Christmas stories & gets it's title from the fact that they were originally released as individual books. It includes The Haunted Man, The Battle of Life, The Cricket on the Hearth, The Chimes and of course A Christmas Carol.  |

Lord of the Flies - William Golding..... can't decide if I love or hate this book! It was my set text for my English lit GCSE! First time I read it in year 10 I didn't like it at all.... second time I read it at the start of year 11 I began to enjoy it a little more, and then third time I read it just before GCSEs started again and I got really into it... Let's see if I'll enjoy it again now that I'm not having to pick it apart and memorise quotations!

Room by Emma Donaghue.
I can hardly put this book down. Its one of the best books I have read in a good couple of years. Everyone get it. Its funny and heartbreaking and strange and brilliant.

The Lost SlayerA series of Buffy books. I got all four in one, making it seem like more of a heavy read, which means I'm struggling. I'm not much of a reader. Harry Potter was my first book and it took me a year!  That book made me late for my English GCSE! I have the all in one like you and I literally couldnt put it down. Its brilliant. Good few years old now though That's a good sign. I mean, it's bad you were late for your GCSE. But if it was that unputdownable then I might actually see this one through. |

Taking a break from the classics for a bit as my mate has loaned me some more books. So it's back to The Dresden Files - Book 8: Proven Guilty.

Thinking 'Proven Guilty' might just have overtaken 'Summer Knight' as my favourite Dresden Files book so far - so much going on but it was fab.
I'm on book 9 now: White Night

Thanks For The Memories by Cecelia Ahern. Its about a woman who has a near fatal accident and so needs a blood transfusion, but after the operation she starts to share the memories and feelings of the donor who she has never met. Im not far into it at the moment, but its compulsive reading so far

Just finished The Eyre Affair by Jasper Fforde (another one of my friend's recommendations) - loved it so much it only took me just over 24 hours to read it.
Now reading The Beekeeper's Apprentice by Laurie R King.
