Hi, nice to hear from you!Its hard for me to get out as i am 28 and sick (terminal cancer) so i have to rely on others to take me places but ill certainly try. Or I can buy it on amazon for my Ipad its much cheaper than getting the hard copy. All the reviews look fantastic though. Thanks for the suggestion.

If your library isn't an option, maybe BD with their free delivery would work for you:) Take care.
Might be worth checking if your local library supports Overdrive. That way you can borrow books from the libraries ebook collection to your iPad. It's very easy to use too. But personally I think Rebecca is well worth it.
I am currently reading book:Mortal Pursuit|11244912]. Seems to me a good read!
I am currently reading so many things... Okay maybe not that many:
Dracula for school
The Map of the Sky and Risk won from goodreads firstreads
Celtic Blood, The Book of the Forsaken and 12: A Novel About the End of the Mayan Calendar given to by author.
They are all pretty good so far. And I can actually keep up with what's going on in all of them.

Yes Mish! I am still plowing through it.There is something the way it was written that gives you chills up the spine with excitement. It is my first book from that author which I found in Amazon via my Kindle, and I don't regret purchasing it. I have 2 other books from him, I will give my feedback to it as well!
Currently readingMiss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children
which contains a little mystery with a liberal dash of paranormal, science-fiction and romance. I am enjoying it although it really is rather peculiar... Suppose I should expect as much given the title. :)
They sure are Michael! Some of those kids could give one nightmares! :) I am still not sure how it will end! Just over half way through now :)

I really liked The Book Thief Lynxie . it was written in such a unique style just something really different for a change.

This is a new release Lynxie. Her last one was AGES ago, about Mak! I'm almost finished, it's brilliant!
I am currently reading "Ambrose Bierce and the Death of Kings", which was in a box of books I got from the library. The story is a bit unclear at this stage but it's well written and quite readable so far. A pleasant surprise.It's a historical mystery set in late 1800's America, and interesting from that angle also.
I have finally finished book 6 of the Wheel of Times series and now reading book 7 A Crown of Swords. I can wait until I finish the series and move onto something else.
Mod
Ambrose Bierce and the Death of Kings :)

I'm now reading The Vanishing Point by Val McDermid

It was discover for me. I choose this book absolutely random. Tone of book is so simple and so straight , but it's so deeply psychological and meaningfull, it’s just amazing!

As promised, my review http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...
In this genre I'm currently reading An Iron Rose by Peter Temple. Also reading Heartstone which is the 6th book in the Shardlake series. And finally Wolf Hall which satisfies my passion for historical fiction.
- not that far in, but loving it!
