Patchwork is ranked 18905 and girl is 616. I guess my name isn't too popular :p

One To Another ~ The Charlatans

Out of the Chronicles, I've read Interview With The Vampire, Queen of the Damned, Vampire Lestat, The Tale of the Body Thief and Memnoch. Out of all of them, I would have to say that Body Thief is among my favourites, or so I remember (I've only read them all once so far, and my memory is...

I've just finished A Long Way Down and I would like to say that it is definitely worth a read. Hornby confronts the different factors that drive people to contemplate suicide, and then events that can make them change their mind. Four very different characters, with each of them getting to...

My Guernica ~ Manic Street Preachers

I was too skint to buy the five-parter, although the four-parter was £5.99 which I thought was quite bargainous.

Books I've read so far this year (that's just how recent I'll get): 1. Scar Tissue ~ Anthony Kiedis 2. Chocolat ~ Joanne Harris 3. Wolves Of The Calla ~ Stephen King 4. Abarat ~ Clive Barker 5. Last Chance Saloon ~ Marian Keyes 6. Only Human ~ Tom Holt 7. The Catcher In The Rye ~ J. D...

The Hitch-hiker's Guide To The Galaxy: A Trilogy in Four Parts ~ Douglas Adams because shockingly, I still haven't read it.

I'm also strongly against the heinous crime of turning down the corners of pages. Most of my family do this, so I try to avoid lending my books to them. At the moment I'm using a black ribbon that used to be part of my wallet: it's good because it's long enough to stick out at both ends of...

The first one that springs to mind is The Bourne Identity by Robert Ludlum. It's just so extremely long-winded, dull and repetitive. And then I made the mistake of reading The Bourne Supremacy to see whether it improved. It didn't.

For China I would recommend The Noodle Maker by Ma Jian: It's a small collection of stories written about by the fictional writer in the main plot, which all interlink and tell the 'truth about living in China'. In parts it can be quite funny. As for Japan, along with Memoirs of a Geisha I...

I am listing all the books I have read, starting from the beginning of 2005 (not long I know). So far I have read about 40 books. I really should have started a list before, it's quite interesting to see what I have read.

The Hitchhiker's Guide To The Galaxy: A Trilogy in Four Parts because I still haven't read it.

I have just finished reading The Noodle Maker by Ma Jian. It contained stories of what life is like for people living in China (written 10 years ago) and was quite darkly funny.
