    Last seen...

    I saw The Exorcism Of Emily Rose on Sunday, I thought it was great :eek: I really wasn't bothered about watching it at first, but it surprised me and it turns out I loved it :rolleyes: Last night I watched Thirteen - Great film!

    Good stuff! Let me know what you think when you get round to reading it. I saw your huge list of books to be read. It might be some time :p

    May Readings

    I think the idea is to do it at the end of the month so members can post a complete list of the books they have read for that month. Maybe you're confused and the list you have posted is your 'to be read' list.

    Do you keep books?

    Me too, I still worry about not having enough to read though! :rolleyes: I was thinking about it at work the other day, as soon as I got home I bidded on 4 more books on Ebay ;)

    Jon McGregor: If Nobody Speaks Of Remarkable Things

    I'd class it as contemporary fiction. It's Jon McGregor's debut about a street in the North of England, ordinary people doing everyday things until a terrible event happens and anyone who witnesses it will never be the same again. :eek: I have about 60 pages left, I've been delaying...

    Jon McGregor: If Nobody Speaks Of Remarkable Things

    Has anyone read this? I'm over half-way through it and so far, I think it is brilliant! I want to savour every last word and I really don't want it to end. I'm attached to the characters and I find McGregor's use of vocabulary to be wonderful. It really is like poetry!

    Did she tell you what a May Basket is? I imagine it's some sort of hamper full of food? Sounds like a nice idea.

    Question Game

    I have milk and sweetener, sometimes sugar. I prefer to go to a coffee shop and have something a little nicer and read a book or if i'm with someone have a chat and watch the world go by . . . Do you do the dreaded 9 to 5 slog?
