Have just downloaded Wolf Hall by Hilary Mantel, anyone
read any of her stuff.
Was going to download the sequel Bringing Up The
Bodies by her but will wait till it comes down in price.
These books are part fact/fiction about Cromwell,
and the tudors. Bringing up the Bodies is about Anne
Boleyn's last days.
A writer much like P Gregory I think. :-)

I noticed someone reading Tess Gerritsons books - I started reading one on holiday in Mexico - frightened the tripe out of me and couldn't carry on - ghoulish!!!

Have just started "Fifty shades of Grey" - bought the trilogy - next one is Fifty shades darker" and then "Fifty Shades freed" It's had great reviews everywhere, but I'm thinking now I'm part way through that I'm not liking it

Grey is a person and apparently it's pretty racey - which is of course why I got it!!! Seems it's all about sex and bondage!!! Well that's not my cup of tea - well not the bondage bit anyway - will see how it goes
