I am nearly finished The Girl who Kicked the Hornet's Nest. It is sooo good - perfect book to read after recovering from wisdom teeth extraction yay!
I am reading The Silver Door by Emily Rodda. Though The Golden Door was great. Got to get the book read before the kids at school find out I have the book!

You know I think someone insinuated as much in a review of one of my stories on B&N. 'How did a girl see death like this?' I'd have to be a George though. ;)

She was the BEST. It's Narooma (Southern N.S.W coast) behind us. :)

I know Narooma, my Mum and Dad lived a lot of years at Dalmeny near Narooma. When we visited, which was often, we'd go to Narooma to shop, lunch at the club, walk etc. Gorgeous place!

My parents live there, and my sister. We lived in Cobargo for a number of years, Braidwood before that. My parents still rib me for moving to Tasmania. They think it's one step away from Antarctica (today they could be right).

Oh wow! We lived in Canberra for almost 7 years, so used to drive through Braidwood to get to the coast. Fancy your family living in Narooma...it sure is a small world!

They're a big part of the family aren't they, it's so sad when they go!

It's always the risk, when you fall in love with short-life creatures.

And we all do it! I think it's worth it to have them for a few years...usually between 10 and 15:)

I agree! Freya lived until the age of nine. She had spinal degenerative disease, the end was long and very painful. But the years with her were wonderful! We have two dogs now: Molly, a labrador, and Locky, a border collie/blue heeler/kelpie cross. Both very cheeky and very gorgeous.

Enjoy Molly and Locky Georgina!! The devotion of dogs especially, is wonderful.
They take every opportunity to sleep on the bed, or sit next to me when I'm writing. I love it. :):)

I am reading the Best Exotic......and have to confess that although I am only up to chapter three I am finding it very tedious, not enough action, it seems to lurch from one non event to another? Will it improve?

That's disappointing...I hope it will improve for you.

I just started reading
Dirk Gently's Holistic Detective Agency again as the TV series (never knew it existed!!) is on ABC 2 Monday nights 9.30: a bit late for me but recording it to see later. I love everything Douglas Adams, so revisiting this series of books isn't any hardship!

Finally gotten around to reading The Kite Runner. I am reading this as my son is 'slowly' reading it for year 12 and thought maybe this could inpire him to read faster and provoke discussions.
Mod
Hope you're enjoying it Dee-Ann.
Mod
Extremely well researched and beautifully written, it's a must read for everyone!
I am about to start "we of the Never Never" thought to read this book being an Australian classic :)
Just started reading Abraham Lincoln: Vampire Hunter. Really interesting so far. Can't wait to see how the movie is made though.
Mod
"That sounds like a good book Peter:)
Like a million others right now ... The Hunger Games. A few chapters away from finishing. It's been here on my shelf, and I just went to see the movie. So the book had to follow. Very engaging & horrifying concept.
Mod
The Hunger Games:) Hope you enjoy it Anya...we have a few diehard fans;D
If you enjoy The Hunger Games you might also enjoy YA fiction
the Study series - and the Ethical Vampire series
I am about to start
for book club, which I am looking forward to after two really dismal book club books!
