I have to say I did enjoy reading it. And didn't find it badly written compared to some books I have read. All I have to say is it's not as bad as Meyer ;)

Who the FUCK is Sophie Hyatt apart from looking like a barmaid?

...is Frank Skinner morphing slowly into Kryten?

The Almost Moon by Ms Seebold or whatever her name is is good - where the heroine kills her demented mother and spends the novel trying to hide her crime. Very cathartic. And I must admit that the bit in the Lovely Bones where you discover what/who the lovely bones are is very good. I would rate that page along with the bit in to Kill a Mockingbird where Atticus says to Boo, 'Thank you for my children.' gets me every time. Although the psychic sex turned my usually steely stomach. In the lovely bones. Not to Kill a Mocking Bird.

Hmm. Contrary to what somebody else posted up there ^ - I did not expect better.

no denying that's a provocative outfit. "honour killing" eh? i wonder if she enjoyed the film?

now...edith bowman, there is a talent. she lives electricals.

So you struggle to write and read then Mopsa?

I'm more a Jilly Cooper girl x

Is it called 'misery porn'? All those 'A Child Called It' and 'No Daddy, Stop!' and 'My Middle Class Parents Gave Me a Curfew' books. UGH.

Seconded. "Read and enjoyed" is an oxymoron. Belongs in the "painful lives" section of Smiths for the maudlin, voyeuristic bunch of twats who enjoy reading about murder and abuse of young kids whilst "tsking" all the time. I bet you enjoyed Jodi Picault too, didn't you? We expected better, Mopsa, really.
