Can anyone help with a book title/author.........?

Can't remember any names but part of the story line (main part really) is people going through a little tear in the grass or cloud or what ever and finding themselves in another world.
Male & female l think for what ever reason are trying to escape people....the badies. They go to an office andhave to escape,they slip in these otherer world.......?????

Its a teenage book but l have read it twice and desperately want to read it again (after Phillip Pullmans trilogy, dark materials)........any ideas what it is ????

I'm reading a 'Rebus' book at the moment.
Got it in the hospital League of Friends shop. Two stories in one book for 50p
That's what I call a bargain.

I recently read A field full of butterflies, memories of a Romany childhood by Rosemary Penfold. A very good book if you are interested in the Romany life (as opposed to modern day travellers).

Have finished Singapore Grip Very interesting reading. I would recommend it to anyone interested in recent history.
Mainly written from the view point of civilan men, which I find quite unusall in stories about times of war.


Have also read "Rhett Butler's People" The autorized novel based on Margaret Mitchell's "Gone with the Wind"

by Donald McCaig. ( I'm not sure who authorized it!)

Good reading, an interesting take on Rhett Butler's history, including his relationship with Scarlett O'Hara.


Hadn't heard of this author before, found the book in a charity shop.
Will look out for more books by the author Donald McCaig.

Tales of a gypsy dressmaker by Thelma Madine - read it in 1 day!! 100% better than I imagined, really good. Going to re-read the L-Shaped room by Lynne Reid Banks yet again or possibly Rabbit Stew and a penny or two.

Bit too rich for me Ann, so will wait till it comes down in
price. I have two others that I want that are slowly but surely coming
down in price and can't/won't read the books that come before them
till I have the pair.
