*hops onto bandwagon again!* A reading meme
Eeee! Another meme! Actually, I think I’ve done this one before, but it was fun, so I’m doin’ it again!

A laughably silly book by Luanne Rice called Firefly Beach. ( Read more... )

o_O Dude. My former roommate's name is Mike Cox...
Didn't they make Kite Runner into a movie? I think it's playing now, actually. Don't know the synopsis of it, though... and the fact that they made it into a movie means nothing. Just... random information ^_^
Yay for Terry Pratchett and Jeffery Deaver! (And I think it is Jeffery Deaver... I remember thinking that he spelled his name weird. *goes to find book to check spelling* Yup, Jeffery. ^_^ Isn't Lincoln Rhyme awesome?! *fangurl squeal* He pwnes leik woah!

Sylvia by Bryce Courtenay…actually, I didn’t finish it.
Meh, I agree. I think Bryce Courtenay is incredibly overrated (either that or has gone steeply downhill from some glorious earlier book like 'The Power of One', which I haven't brought myself to read). 'The Potato Factory' was physically painful to me. The book about his son's AIDS was better, and very poignant, but you could argue that a real biography without writing devices is a different thing altogether.
He was at a writing conference at the live-in college where my Mum used to work once, so I was allowed to go along, but I felt really uncomfortable about being there to hear him talk about writing without actually LIKING his writing ... :/
