What do you think of it, Flashy?
I didn't rate it compared to Ugly.

Re: Bookworms: What are you reading at the moment?
just finished it tonight H, only took me just over a day to read it, there wasnt as much depth to it compared with 'ugly' i thought there would have been more reference to her mother than there was, aparently her mother tried to sue Constance for 'bad mouthing' her in the first book, i dont know how that went on, i thought the ending to the book was a bit dismal and rather quick, other than that i thought it was a decent book
now i need another decent book to read

Re: Bookworms: What are you reading at the moment?
just started reading 'unbeaten' by Kim Woodburn, i eventually took that book back to the library, the book that was due back 6 years ago paid the £13.27 fine so now i can get some books out (hence the book i am reading)

Re: Bookworms: What are you reading at the moment?
Just finished "Pearl" by Tabitha King ( for about the 6th time!) , great book, she is Stephen King's missus and a better writer ( I think).
Have read all the Spike Milligans and he is one of the few authors whose books I actually keep.

Re: Bookworms: What are you reading at the moment?
the Afghan , Frederick Forsythe, absolute rubbish, bubble gum for the brain , should have known better when I saw it on the 'remainder' table for $3.50 (new hardback), Don't think the guy has written a decent book since 'Day of the Jackel' .........but at least it helped put me to sleep last night

Pierre Berton's "Vimy." A good read for those who think that Canada doesn't have much of a history.

Re: Bookworms: What are you reading at the moment?
love reading true stories, although just started uni course so having plenty of psychology/sociology books to read at the moment! Not really that much difference eh?!?
