This is quite possibly one of the worst books I have ever read. A friend loaned it to me together with an entire bag of other books. She went through them quickly with me but she admitted she bought a few of them simply because of their covers. They do all have very cool and impressive covers, I must admit! …

If you want more Edward and Bella, I have the perfect story for you! ** SPOILER ALERT! ** – If you haven’t finished the original four books, stop reading here as the synopsis of this fan fiction story contains info you don’t want to see yet.

I recently decided to pick up the wildly popular series of Twilight books. I’ve heard so much about them but always had other things I wanted to read first. When the movie came out, I felt a bit pressed for time, because I really wanted to see the movie, but not without reading the books first. I like to be …

I’ve been reading the most fantastic series of books lately, and I’ve pretty much forced all my close friends and family to start reading them as well.

I recently finished reading this book, and I loved it. When I was in the south of France a few months ago my brother-in-law gave it to me to read because he loved it as well. He had spent some time in South Africa and picked it up while he was there. I’m sure it brings back memories of things …

I hate when I read or watch something that the rest of the world raves about and seems to think it’s the best thing since sliced bread, and I don’t like it. It happens quite often, like with the Kill Bill movies… or Monty Python. It makes me feel like I have no taste, or can’t appreciate art. I know …

If you remember, a while back I read a few books by Kathy Reich’s. The books were about a forensic anthropologist named Temperance Brennan.

The book I finished just was the 2nd one I had bought by Kathy Reichs. You might remember the review of the first book, Deja Dead. As promised, I read the 2nd in the series and gave it a shot. On Saturday evening I went out with a few girlfriends to see a movie. Again, I was totally glad to …

As you probably gathered from previous posts, I’m a massive fan of Mike Gayle and his books. After writing my review of his latest book – Brand New Friend I decided to poke around the web and look for his website. I found it, and it had a link to his email so I decided to send him a mail …
