Kris’s comments from the What's the Name of That Book??? group.

V is still looking for this book:

"Contemporary Romance: the H is an hotel owner and the h I think is an advertising executive

The book was released mid 2000s I think. All I remember from the opening scene was the h entering the hotel, asking for the room key from the front desk saying that her husband was expecting her. She finds him cheating, she runs out, hotel security i think runs after her and she bumps into the hotel owner outside by the sidewalk. Hotel owner tells security to ban the husband from the chain of hotels he owns. They meet up again a year or 2 later and if I'm not mistaken she's the ad exec? I'm sorry I'm not much help but that's all I remember.. Thank you so much!"

"Young Adult, Romance, Military

I believe it’s about a military guy who is on a mission. During this time, his girlfriend dies. Her sister (of the deceased girlfriend) decides to send her letters pretending its her. He falls in love with her. I read this like 8 years ago so it shouldn’t be that new but not that old either. It is set on the United States."

One Goodreads reviewer says:

- "Ever since Ruby, aged thirty-something, caught her (now ex) fiancé in flagrante with another woman, life has been in a bit of a rut (...) so she jumps on a plane to join her sister on holiday in Goa.
(...) Ruby’s sister runs away.
(...) “Look after your little sister” is a refrain Ruby has been brought up with, so she cannot let her parents down. But what about Heathcliff back in London, and the tall, dark, handsome, but annoying, American she meets?
(...) what it is like to travel in India, from train journeys to tuk tuks, from touring the Taj Mahal to sleeping in a tent. (... ) Light romantic comedy (...) Rocky a taxi driver...

Excellent! So glad you found your book, Bargle.

Paul is still looking for this book:

"Sci-fi / Fantasy cross over, American students create a fantasy world and somehow enter it.
I read this in the early 80's I think. A main plot point was that the characters in the book creating this fantasy world were struggling with the amount of memory needed in the computer, but they realised they only needed to generate the images in the filed of vision of the characters (they must have been wearing some sort of headset to enter the fantasy world - but I don't remember that part) they each took on a fantasy character, wizard, dwarf etc., I do remember that they were American students living on a big campus."

Please note you can bump your own thread 30+ days after the last comment in the thread - because this group is so large. If you remember new details, you can add them at any time.
