I really really fancy "Instructions for a Heatwave" by Maggie O'Farrell but it's £9.99 on the Kindle so I'm going to wait and see if it goes a bit cheaper before I go on holiday........

I fancied that one too Kaz, it was reviewed in the Times, but I have a few waiting so will be patient.
Saw there's a new Penny Vincenzi out and got all excited but it's short stories, and I so love her huge fat books will only get it if I see it cheap ;)

I'm really enjoying Dominion (CJ Sansom) btw, it's a big fat book, almost 600 pages, but now I'm well over halfway through it's really rattling along :)

My friend said she'd lend me this Jo.

I'm not sure? :|


It's worth reading, but it is upsetting.
I was quite curious about the younger son who was born the Christmas after James was murdered as he wasn't really mentioned much as the book reached it's conclusion. I did a quick search online yesterday and found a recent interview and read that he has changed his surname to that of his stepfather and has hardly seen his father since he took that decision when he was 13 :?

This Thirtysomething Life by Jon Rance, really enjoyed that. Started and finished in a day.
I'm now reading Letters From My Sister by Alice Peterson.
