    i started reading "the memory keepers daughter" by kim edwards while i was on hols. from the back it sounded really good, its about a doctor delivering his twins and the girl has downs syndrome so the doctor gives her away and tells his wife she died. ive only read about 3 or 4 chapters so far cos i dont like the writing style of it so im finding it really difficult to read more than a few pages at once

    I am reading Blackout by Chris Ryan - a fantastic book so far (i have read 92 pages in 2 days!) - i thought this book wouldn't grip me but it did - if your into programmes like Spooks or 24 - i highly recommend this book to you..

    I read this one and 3 others from the Richard and Judy summer read while on holiday.

    We will be discussing the Memory Keepers Daughter at book club on 13th - I didn't really like it to be honest. I felt that the ending was realy contrived, but it will be interesting to hear other peoples opinions both on the story and the ethics.

    I'm reading Amnesia by Beverly Barton. The blurb sounds really good but I'm finding it hard to get in to. I think my next book will be an autobiography. I'm a bit fed up of reading fiction at the moment.

    I was going to read that but instead I read Ugly, that was a really sad book, but it was as they said 'uplifting' towards the end

    Finished reading Blackout by Chris Ryan a few weeks ago - superb book with a wonderful twist at the end!

    Same, and same about the Ugly book as well! Was a good book but was quite sad. There's a sequel to it I might read..
