I didn't know it was part of a trilogy.
Good idea to save your vote Debbie. I should've done the same but I just can't resist voting & watching the poll change. We should take it in turns each month

The last Paulo Coelho book I read was really raunchy (and that's an understatement!). Can't remember what it was called. Tell a lie, I do know, it was Eleven Minutes. Have to say a lot of it went over my head. Has anyone read it?
I am intrigued by Veronika Decides to Die, so if it wins will be more than happy to read it.

Hi Mazzystar - sorry; I've only just seen your post otherwise I would have responded earlier! Yes, I would love to hear what you think of it. It was a book that stayed with me for a long time after I read it, if you know what I mean.

Got it on TBR! Need to read one of the mobile library books next but might read a Coelho one after that!

Looks like Veronika Decides to Die is the winner!

Wasn't going to bother trying to get Veronika as I already had Keeping Faith but I just went for a browse in my local charity shop and it was there for £1.50 so I just had to get it. Sounds like a really good read and is really thin.
There were loads of his books, someone must have turfed a load out so may be tempted to go back and complete the trilogy! |
