84. 10/10 !!

Gone, Baby, Gone was great! That scene when they find the little boy in the bath was so horrible though, very sad :(

How did you feel about the ending? I was on Angie's side - they should have left that kid with the old couple.

I know what you mean Lauren, I loved the book so much and rarely do I give a book 10/10, but it was justified with this book. It was very sad, but it is also a reality today, and there are people who would do thigns to a child. For people like that there should be no second chances.

I also agree with Angie and felt her pain, as to let the child go back from a loving home into the arms of her pathetic mother was another tragedy. Yet at the same time Doyle was involved in the murders of people also and he could not be allowed to get away with it. I wished they could have thought about the childs interests first.A "Biological " mother does not mean the best mother.

Yeah, the bit at the end when Patrick goes to see the child suggests he made the wrong choice.

85. 1/10 Terrible read

Hey Emma and Lauren...
I think I've seen Gone Baby Gone, but now you've both made me want to read the book... I'll have to go and get it (maybe if he gets chosen for author of the month I'll at least have a book :))

I'm starting to wonder if I should read Beastly????

Hi Niecole, I have also seen th film Gone Baby Gone, but didnt like it, the book is far better as with the case of many Movie adaptations.

You might enjoy Beastly Niecole, the one good point is that you probably will finish it in a day, so if you dont like it it wouldnt have taken up too much of your time.

I agree with you about the Gone, Baby, Gone film Emma. They follow the plot fairly closely, but the actors are all wrong, and Patrick and Angie just don't have the same spunk that they do in the books, they're a bit boring.

Ditto Beastly. I can't remember the last time I was able to read a book that fast. However, if it was any slower I might have given up on it early on.

Thanks for the advice guys :)
I think I might enjoy Gone Baby Gone because I love crime novels...

86. Dragonfly in Amber (Outlander 2) By Diana Gabaldon 9/10



I finally finished this book!! I just love this series, and cant wait to read the rest of these books.

Highly Recommended!

Hey Emma
I havent looked at the Outlander Series yet, but if you recommend it then I shall go and have a look :)

I actually didnt finish this book and read upto page 127 of pages 450 of my ebook. This book wasnt for me.

lol, I get soooo many books that I wonder why I ever picked them up in the first place...

88. 6/10 not bad

Mmmm I've been wondering about this book...

I had a problem with the attitude toward violence in the book, specifically the idea that the solution to hostility is to decimate your antagonist. That sounds like the kind of reasoning behind America's nuclear bombing of Japan and their war in Iraq.

Aside from that though, I have to admit it was a very thought-provoking and entertaining novel. I've been considering bumping my rating from 2 to 3 - I think I was being a bit harsh.

I've heard good things, and now some bad things about this book, and I'm starting to think it might just not be the right book for me to read...

97. Not like her Chicagoland series which I love...a disappointing 3/10

8/10

I didnt realise this was a Womens murder club book when I picked it up in the library. Really enjoyed it and now will read more in this series.

Congrats Emma!

The Women's Murder Club is a very enjoyable series and reasonably quick reads as well.

Congrats Emma, on reaching your goal. I have set my first goals ever for 2011 and I hope I will meet them as well.

Thanks so much guys. On the womens murder club I intend to see if I can get hold of more, I know Niecole and Lu are quite keen on this series and never really thought to pick any of these books up before. So glad I did.

Definitely a great series!

Niecole has read more than I have tho, I'm on nr 3 :)

I'm trying to get hold of the TV series. I hope they put it on dvd someday :(
