My line up:

And she was, Alison Gaylin.
Swimming in the Dark, Paddy Richardson.
The Pillars of earth, Kenn Follett (this will be the longest novel I will have read. I actually took the third one in the series out last week when I realized it was a series, so I took it back so I could start from the beginning. I hope I enjoy the series. And it will be a great accomplishments to read such a grand size book).



This book here, after reading it I went to get the second and third in the series and they don't have them available in my Library - I am so disappointed. I laughed out loud, real good solid laughs nearly every page - and I was so looking forward to more laughs.

Devil of the Highlands, Lynsay Sands

If the library won't get the series in, I'll have to buy it, I am hoping they do - they should have the series available.
If fat means flavour then I'm ******* delicious!

I am reading Macbeth by Jo Nesbø from the library, which I need to return by tomorrow or...5 cents fine daily.

(I like all of Nesbø's series: Harry Hole, Olav Johansen, and Doctor Proctor.)


I found out from a friend, when I was midway through it, that it is part of a project called The Hogarth Shakespeare project, where contemporary writers are re-telling and re-imagining Shakespeare.

I may read some of the others in this project, as Gillian Flynn ( Gone Gir l), Tracy Chevalier ( Girl with a Pearl Earring ), and Margaret Atwood are some of the other authors.

Great news. David Golemon has stated on facebook that he wants John McTiernan to direct the Event Group movie. He doesn't trust any other director to actually stay true to the Event Group lore and I agree. Never seen any McTiernan movie but I'm sure he's fantastic. A movie based on the first Event Group book would probably draw similarities to other alien invasion movies but it's still an original idea. Original idea movies aren't done that often. I'm hoping that Warner Bros is the company that produces the movie.

Unfortunately Event is still out of stock in stores and Empire of the Dragon isn't available in any print format yet. I'm expecting a hardcover release in november.

On page 276 of Koko The Mighty. Already spoiled what happens to Flynn but its still good.
Next will be Koko Uncaged and then finally, after 5 years of waiting, The 5th wave. Interested in the 5th wave book because of the Chloe movie.
