Took me a while to get used to the writing style but I did enjoy it and had to read it all in a weekend. I do not know the others you refer to but I will keep an eye open for them. I love to read and I cannot imagine a day goes by in anyone's life without reading. <br />For me so far I have enjoyed the Bryce Courtney books...it made me think but I had to have a break form the serious books so I relaxed with some Stephen King and I am currently reading the Clockwork Prince (teenie bopper fiction, but the Bryce Courtney took its toll on me with all the emotion and seriousness). <br />Have you tried Khaled Hosseini...it is hard stuff to read but again, books that make you re-evaluate your life.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05194763607135840852noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-71128245731328079932014-05-15T09:01:09.546+02:002014-05-15T09:01:09.546+02:00I'll have a look!I'll have a look!cathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15788508986252339771noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8127613511850015325.post-79337943969297604762014-05-15T09:00:13.851+02:002014-05-15T09:00:13.851+02:00Charni- read it!

I am trying to get Daniella to read it but she says she doesn't want to read a book about cancer!
