Human waste? Ergh. I worked in retail for a few months as a student and I can't say I enjoyed it. It would be ok if you could choose your customers first!

Think I've got the characters sussed in game of thrones now. There is a complex web of characters that are slowly introduced & their relationships with the other characters explained. I think I might have to get the series 1 box set after I've read it. It's an epic read, needs concentration but I'm enjoying so far.

Finished Val McDermid's "The Torment of Others" - really good read and unexpected ending.

Now reading "Black Rabbit Summer" by Kevin Brooks which is one of my teenage son's books!

Just finished "The Family Fang". It was actually a really enjoyable read. Funny, heartwarming, sad and a little crazy. Would definitely recommend it. When reading it I kept getting visions from the film "Little Miss Sunshine" not that the story is really anything similar I just think the family dynamic that is central to the story reminded me of it in some way.

Am now reading "You Deserve Nothing" by Alexander Maksik.

Love the going postal series! Much better than the hogsfather one they did. Also a big fan of TGWTDT trilogy. First one took some perseverance but the second and third made it well worth it.

I'm reading terry Pratchett 'snuff' atm. Enjoying it as I always do with TP.

I've never read a pratchett! What are they like/about? I love scifi & fantasy so I reckon it might be worth checking them out.

You've got to give Terry Pratchett a go, he's got such a brilliant mind, you can read each book in any order or start at the begining of the discworld series; there is lots of humour in the books, they are such a fun read

You should have a go at least one Pratchett... Funny as... Douglas Adams is another good one too, the humour stays with you long after you have read the books...xx

I shall add him to my to read list! Is the colour of magic the first one?

From what I understand it's basically erotica. Ive read a few ratings completely slating & some singing it's praises. I don't know, it doesn't really appeal to me.

OMG I read all three in a week, it's not my kind of read, but they were so compelling you will not be able to put it down..... Enjoy
