Call me stupid but I'm not actually sure what casual sex has to do with it. I mean Ana and Christian are pretty much in a relationship, there's nothing casual about it.

I've got your email, thanks! I have some free time over Christmas so I will read through them all then and let you know what I think :) All three sound like great stories! I didn't like the ending of the Hunger Games, I was actually quite disappointed that she got with Peter instead of Gail...

Hey Readsalot. Of course, I'd be happy to do that. I should let you know though that I edit non fiction for my day job (press releases, website copy, articles etc.) however I'd definitely be happy to read through it and check for spelling, grammar, flow etc. My email is...

It doesn't usually detract from the enjoyment of it however if there are a lot of spelling, grammar or punctuation errors it can start to really annoy me as I'm trained to pick up on things like this. I actually read a book a few months ago called 'To Be Maria' and it just irritated me from...

My suggestion: The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey

:lol: If every man was like Hugh Grant the world would be a much more romantic place :whistling:

My husband says this all the time - he says I have a fake view of romance because of all the chicklit I read... he's probably right lol :whistling:

I'm not talking about the sexual side of things, I'm talking the full on mental abuse. Many of the people I spoke to after reading the trilogy loved Mr Grey, especially after she had succeeded in "changing" him - this got me wondering how many women actually in abusive relationships would stay...

I hope this post wasn't supposed to be personal as it comes across as quite hostile. The majority of people who write books do so to have their stories read by others. In order to do this they have to get them published, either down the publishing house route or the self publishing route...

I don't drive. Mince pies or Christmas pudding?

The last movie I watched was Revolutionary Road starring Kate Winslet and Leonardo DiCaprio. Winslet was an amazing actress but the film was just way too depressing to be enjoyable...

I loved his autobiography Boy! May have to go back and start reading these again :)

I don't think the problem with the books is casual sex I think the problem is the way that Mr Grey completely controls Anastasia. Okay I get that control is part of the agreement that they have but there are points in the book where he goes too far. I found their relationship to be abusive...

I'm going to add this to my Wish List, sure I'll have lots of free time over Christmas. The synopsis looks great and I love Pratchett books on the whole, and the Dickensian atmosphere makes this one sound awesome!

I haven't found it to be a problem and I can read for 12 hours a day if my schedule is free enough. If you're worried about it though, you might want to go for a non-lit screen and purchase a cover with a light for reading at night time.

I always thought that if I ever get round to writing the novel I've wanted to write for years that I would want to go down the traditional publishing route. That said, I've been speaking to a very passionate writer who has been trying for two years to get a publishing house to pick up her story...

I've always dreamed of working in publishing but no way would I work to those rules. Call me stupid but I assumed that the only people who may consider working in a job without pay are students looking for work experience, but then they don't want students either. Crazy!

It's very close between Sirius Black and Snape - I don't think I could decide between the two!

I second Abbi Glines - I loved While It Lasts (you can find my review here if you're interested) :)
