  1. Hiya
    You've got some great books on your list of books that you would like to read. I've read a few and can totally recommend them

    The Anita Baker series is very good, although the first couple gave me nightmares *blush*.

    Good luck with making it to your 100.. shout out if you want any other recommendations....

    I'm a very avid reader too, and I think I drive my library mental!!

  2. Hey, some great books there. My all time new favourite author is Jasper Fforde. he has 3 series out - Thursday Next (which references the classics in a humourous and sllightly satirical way), Nursery Crimes (which references all sorts of literature) and his new one, based around Colourtocracy. I loved the new one so much - Shades of Grey - that I read it in 3, maybe 4 nights? Which is pretty good for me in these days of kids...

    Anyway, can't reccomend this author enough. Everyone who I have managed to twist their arm into reading it has LOVED it!
