    I really enjoyed that one - if I had a top ten of books it might well be in there

    On hold. Just one of my many NY resolutions to get started again. Left them alone for way too long.

    Well I hope you all bear a thought for

    The (local) guy in the star tonight whose daughter's murder was part of a book released over Xmas. Can't think why anyone would want to read details of that stuff (life can be miserable enough without chosing to read more of it).. but whilst someone is making money taking photos of her grave, there is an old man. who has lost his wife and daughter, knowing he will have to live with that for the rest of his life.... but if you call that entertainment.....
    Give me Mills & Boon anytime.
