Im only on page 100 so far Whats really killing me is I bought a number of books from my fave ebay seller and theyre sitting begging to be read and I KNOW Ill enjoy them lol

 

[charliegirl]

How come your struggling with it Sandy??

 

[Starlight]

Its not my kind of book, Im not enjoying it and cant get into it at all

 

[charliegirl]

I have to say I thought I would struggle as it is so far removed from what I would usually read (american crime/thrillers) but because of the short chapters and the changing charactors I found it easy...its a shame but I know what you mean if you cant you cant but at least you can still add to the discussion as to why you cant lol...have read some reviews on the next book and it got a bit slated to be honest but lets hope its a good one to get stuck into...xx

I wish I had ordered express delivery now. :giggle: I definately watch too much tv. and I need to get back into reading again. Was never a particularly quick reader, as I sometimes need to read a paragraph or line again to digest it properly. Also if a year is mentioned my brain insists on working out how many yrs ago it was and what age a character was then lol.

Once I have set the scene in my head I am away, I struggle with books if I cant work the scene out and then dont bond with the charactors....xx

Finished mine while sat in the car outside Amy's school. I was sorry I'd finished it and wanted to read it all over again as I'm like Lyn, sometimes I need to re-read to get it into my old brain lol!
