      I got lots of reading done yesterday evening as we had no internet. So I read a book read that had been chosen by another forum - it was so good that I finised it off this morning! It was Emotional Geology and I can highly recommend it - I suppose you would call it a literary novel. I found it fascinating and gripping. The main character suffers from bio polar and is also recovering from traumatic events in her past - you only find out about this gradually. It was fascinating as the story is gradually pieced together, like unpeeling layers of an onion. It's not a depressing novel though - I couldn't put it down and think many of you would also enjoy it.
Now I really must finish Tales From the Glades of Ballymore which I am nearly half way through - then I intend to start Stuart's book A Cleansing of Souls.

 That sounds interesting Karen. I wish I didn't spend so much time fannying around on here and I'd have more reading time!

     I don't have much time to read at the moment, but I finished Cruel Justice #1. Overall I enjoyed it. Tried reading Tollesbury Time Forever but couldn't get into it I'm afraid (sorry Stuart). Well written but not my type of book. I'm slowly progressing with The Rapture. I'm finding it 'overwritten' but intriguing. Also just started Room.

     Finished The Earth Hums in B Flat by Mari Strachan. Very strange, enigmatic, intriguing and very readable. I really liked it.
      Finished The Earth Hums in B Flat by Mari Strachan. Very strange, enigmatic, intriguing and very readable. I really liked it.Then last night I read The Surrogate Vigilante by my new discovery, Beverley Carter. It's a shortie but it's really good.
Now I'm 25% through Devoted Sisters by our Alison Buck. Very different from Abiding Evil but so far a great read.
