Hello Readers! What a busy week it’s been for me! After recovering from the dreaded lurgy that kept me in bed all of Monday I’ve been out and about. As I mentioned in yesterday’s post I attended a wedding last night, but still managed to sneak in the last chapter of The Rosie Project before... More ...

Hello readers! I’m writing to you today from beneath the duvet cover. It seems that I’ve been hit by an awful flu (bad cold) and have taken the day off to recover. Fortunately for me I have The Rosie Project to keep me entertained and, if you scroll to the end of the post, a... More ...

End of Week Ten – Aprons and Silver Spoons

9780718197186H

I can’t believe I’m at the end of week 10 – what started as a reading challenge is slowly beginning to take over my life and I can’t think of anything but books! I’m going to be posting the Readarama list for the next ten weeks over the next few days to give you plenty of time to get the books in advance. It’s been great reading some of your reviews as well, so make sure that you post links either in the comments or come on over to the Facebook page and get involved in the ...

End of Week Five – Rebuilding Coventry

March 1, 2013

I can’t believe that another week of reading has passed. Posting about Animal Farm last week seems like only yesterday. Maybe it’s down to filling up all my spare moments with reading that the week passes by so quickly. Is anyone else feeling this? This week I've been reading Sue Townsend’s Rebuilding Coventry, a hilarious tale of Coventry, a middle aged housewife, and her escape to London after accidentally murdering a neighbour in an unfortunate incident involving an Action Man. Coventry’s time in London is spent meeting eccentric characters, mixing amongst the classes and, ...

End of Week 3 – The Fault in Our Stars

I’m sure this will come of no surprise to those that have been reading this week’s Readarama title – The Fault in Our Stars - along with me, but I have been extremely emotional all week. So, pass the tissues and I’ll tell you all about this week’s reading experience…*sob* The Fault in Our Stars is narrated by Hazel Grace, a 16 year old girl with terminal cancer which she has been battling since she was 13 and whose ‘lungs suck at being lungs’. Hazel has been suffering from depression, which she describes as a ‘side effect of dying’, and so has been forced by her mother ...
