Love varying my reads..30 minutes in modern day literary thriller world..and 30 minutes in Victorian England..and back again!

I have tried reading books on my i-phone..found it a bit difficult! My sister reads on her i-phone all the time..loves it

She is very much a matter of taste..I did love this book of hers

I finished the utterly brilliant
And have began Wilkie Collins' Man and Wife. A most facinating literary attack on the unseemly and sexist marriage laws of the mid 19th century British Empire

Had a chance to look through the new links posted here in the past few days. I am so incredibly impressed!! What magnificent works!!!

Well I can tell you the lead character in Nano is as unlikable as any I have ever read. To make her even worse, Cook has his two male lead characters portrayed as pretty much Boy Scouts. As nice and polite as can be.. Only to have the lead character constantly tearing them apart verbally. One constantly asks.. What the hell do they see in this woman!!
