Great review Marianne, I'm looking forward to starting this one soon.


I remember reading The Catcher in the Rye, The Plague and The Collector at school - so apparently things haven't changed at all.
Although we all know that a bit of angst can make for a great story, sometimes it seems as if to be considered 'great' a book has to be horrible. No wonder so few kids enjoy English.

Glad he's liking that series. The subject fascinates me but not by Iggulden! I don't think I'll be reading any more of his books. I found the War of the Roses series to be plot driven rather than character and that's a style I never really enjoy.
Finished In Safe Keeping by Lee Christine last night - 5★s

Dale, has your copy got a sort of waxy feel to the cover? I hated that about my copy:(

No, not unless it wore off with all the users. Mine is a library copy, Bette.I couldn't find your review. Apart from the cover, what did you think of this book?

Excellent review, Marianne. Another book for my never-ending to-read list. :)

Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show..."
As always, Brenda, a great review. I couldn't resist adding it to my already unwieldy TBR list. :)

It ended up in the comment section, don't know how that happened..
Now reading a book of short stories by Cathy Kelly, a bit of a contrast to this one ;)

Suzanne, if you go to your review, in the review box in the top right hand corner (very faint) you will see "edit". Click on that and copy and paste your review which went into the comment box into the review box, if you want to.. Then press "save" after you've done that and it'll appear where it should:)

Sadly, I did not like it, Dale. But I think my opinion could have been affected by the horrid coating on the cover.

Thanks, Brenda. This is one of those rare times that's it cheaper if you "live" in Australia. :)
