I really enjoyed this far more then I thought it would. Its lovely to step back into the world of Austen and see what love can be like at its most innocent. Beautifully written with comedy throughout, a must for all romance fans! I only wish I had read this sooner

An incredible story that is difficult to describe in a short few sentences. It was certainly a very thought provoking book and I really wanted to discuss it with someone else (excellent choice for a book club!). I was unsure about the ending but on reflection it fits well with the rest of the book and allows for the reader to ponder the story well after finishing reading. Dystopian fiction is not for everyone but if you are at all interested in this genre then this is a brilliant example. Once I'd finished this book I went straight out and bought "Oryx and Crake" - another dystopian story by Atwood.

This was quite an emotional read and I have to admit that I did cry in some parts of it. Having said this though, like Hopeless Romantic, some parts dragged on and were quite dull. But unlike Hopeless Romantic, it didn't have a freshness that was in Hopeless Romantic that made me love it. If you do want to read this book, I would recommend that you read Hopeless Romantic first because this book, although okay, wouldn't make you want to read anymore of Harriet Evans' books.

I was blown away when I ordered this set of Jane Austen books. They are simply delightful - had I known how nice they were, I would have paid twice the price.
The books are just the right size for reading in bed (I cannot read the normal sized hardbacks this way as they are too heavy) and they are small enough to slip into a handbag. The edges of each page are trimmed with gold colouring and there is a handy ribbon bookmark so you do not need to worry about losing your page. I cannot stress just how lovely and charming this set is and would make a wonderful gift. I will strive to collect other books in this series because they are the loveliest books I've had. >>More Details |

Wuthering Heights (Penguin Popular Classics)by: Emily Bronte January 25, 2007 Best Selling > Books > Women Writers and Fiction |

I've just read this book for the third time, and it's certainly one of those rare finds that gets better and better with every read. Dark, brooding and passionate, Emily Bronte shows great talent as writer and demonstrates a great understanding and a great flair for the Gothic genre. Despite the unlikeable characters, the reader is sucked into their all-encompassing world of gloom, love, madness, despair and revenge. Heathcliff is certainly the greatest anti-hero created. I only wish EB's last manuscript had not been destroyed, unpublished, after her death - know knows what master-piece she would have created?

There is a lot of good erotica in the short story genre at the moment and this is one of the best. Red hot stories that are believable and imaginative, the characters are beautiful and are doing things we all do, or would like to do. I also enjoyed the 2007 edition, thats well worth a look. And my own personal favourite, the classic '100 Percent Erotica' by Suzie Van Aartman, you'll need to change your underwear after reading that.

Jane Eyre (Penguin Popular Classics)by: Charlotte Bronte January 25, 2007 Best Selling > Books > Women Writers and Fiction |

This is one of my favourite books and one I constantly re-read. I love all the characters, especially the way they are neither beautiful or perfect people. But the main reason I love this book is the character of Rochester and the way he loves Jane. He is definitely my favourite hero of all time.

This book is Tasmina Perry's third and it certainly delivers. Her first two novels were best sellers so Tasmina had a lot of work on her hands to make sure her third novel was just as good..
Emma and Cassandra are cousins, Emma being the more mature and Cassandra craving attention and status. Their Uncle has just died and the entire family are eager to find out who gets the grand home and more importantly, the prestigous company he owns. But who gets what they want? And with bitter family rivals, who will do anything to make sure they get their share of millions of pounds? This book was a real page turner and there are alot of scandals, secrets and lies involved. I love the way Tasmina Perry really involves you, the reader, ... Read More: >>More Details |

The Secret Garden (Wordsworth's Children's Classics) (Wordsworth's Children's Classics)by: Frances Hodgson Burnett February 01, 1993 Best Selling > Books > Women Writers and Fiction |

So this is where the nursery rhyme came from! Thus starts this well known and beloved tale as young Mary Lennox, raised in India by indifferent parents, is a most spoiled and disagreeable child. After she is orphaned she is sent to live with her recluse uncle Archibald Craven in a large mysterious mansion set amidst the dark moors of England. This story is too well known and beloved by all to rehash the plot all over again. Suffice it to say that this was a lovely tale of two bitter and unhappy young children who were able to find the "secret gardens" within themselves and used that magic to heal their tortured souls, and become healthy, happy children.
I very much enjoyed the author's characterizations of the children, along with the glorious ... Read More: >>More Details |

The first quarter of this wonderful book left me in doubt. Mary/Martin was the character that most interested me, and I found the numerous other stories distracting. But, in Part Two, the gender identity issue came to the fore, and the purpose of the web of other characters became clear. From then on, I loved every page of it.
It's a novel about the journeys of people's lives, and the factors - controllable or otherwise - that shape them. In particular, it focuses on the struggles of non-conformists, and people trapped where they don't want to be: in the wrong body; in mental illness; in a small rural village, with a mind-numbing job. The message seems to be: be true to yourself, chart your own journey, and don't let others constrain it through their ... Read More: >>More Details |
