I loved "Bird Song" by Sebastian Faulks. It is a very moving and explicit account of World War 1, and if you want an erotic read, page 50 + leaves Fifty Shades of Grey standing!

I loved "Bird Song" too. Have (or had) a paperback edition.
Will have to check pages fifty +, if I have still got the book. (it may have gone to the charity shop).

I have just finished Ann Murrays chocalate girls I loved it, I like to relax with pink and fluffy, and then read the follow up Bourville Girls bit predictable that one wasnt as good as the choc girls but I love the attention to detail and I think she maps her books out very well, I discovered the history of Cadburys which I thought was very interesting.

I am great fan of Kitty Neals and read one of her books a couple of weeks ago, the book is set in 1971 and the story is about a man and wife set in London eastend and they live with her mother, during one bit, the man is annoyed as the mother wants to watch her programe on TV and he wants to watch The Sweeny I felt totally let down as the sweeney didnt air till 1975. :-(

Hi, just back to say that I haven't actually read Fifty Shades of Grey, and don't even fancy it. I'm a clean living Geordie lass!

Just finished reading The Secret Keeper by Kate Morton. A really good book I thought, kept me guessing and didn't see the twist coming at the end until she hit me with it. :-D

Hi, I've read and enjoyed all of Kate Morton's books. Rachel Hore writes in a similar vein, and is also well worth reading.
I quite enjoyed The Haunting by Alan Titchmarsh - especially as it was about searching for ancestors. Different from his other books.

Geordie, I like the descriptive parts so far, he writes those so well I just have read a bout 3 chapters and haven't really got into it yet but it seems as though it will develop well. Will let you know. Yes read the other Kate Morton books and also like Rachel Hore.

Have been to the local charity shop again. This time getting SIX books, authors include - Kate Mosse, Ruth Rendall and Colleen McCulloch.

Colleen's book is called "Angel" set in Sydney NSW in the early 1960's.

Interesting, includes a landlady/fortune teller and her various tenants.

What I found most amusing is that on the back cover of my paperback, the fortune teller has been given the wrong name!

A good read neverthe less.

I do like Kate Moss Tess.

Thank you for your card by the way.
