thank goodness for sites like this n RISI that can introduce you to new reading experiences-even if i hate sarahs key at least i will have tried something new


Hear hear Sparky. I wouldn't have read a lot of books if it weren't for you guys. Hmmm...can feel a thread coming on

I'm really looking forward to reading this one and discussing it with the author!

I've defintely read things I noramlly wouldn't have chosen. I never really fancied Philippa Gregory but have just bought another one of her's as I think she's great

I don't know if you got my PM or not, Daniela but if you see this, would you pm me your address details and I can send a copy of Sarah's Key onto you tomorrow/Monday?  I'll try and pm you again as well..

Glad it arrived safe and sound, Dani.  Looks like Lisa is next on the list so if you pm her for her contact details you can send it on when you're ready.  Enjoy.

Just to say that I've added some additional info about Sarah's Key and Tatiana to the initial post.  Also, Tatiana has suggested Wednesday 16th April at 7.00pm, I assume that means our time...for a live chat.  Does that suit most people?  I will get back to her this evening with confirmation.

That sounds great Treez. If the competition winners want to read the book in time for Tatiana's chat, they should have enough time to do so. I've nearly finished Random Acts so will start Sarah's Key tonight. Really looking forward to it.

Lisa, Josie and Heathera all said they were interested Anne so, maybe, if you give one of them a shout, they might be able to fit it in before the chat.  We have 5 weeks or so, so there should be time for everyone who wanted a read, to get their chance...I hope.

Thanks for visiting Tatiana and thanks for your reply to my message earlier today.  I'm really looking forward to the Author Chat.

I've finished Sarah's Key now and wish I could just read it all over again for the first time.  This is going to be up there as one of my all time favourites. Exactly my kind of book.

Lisa, Josie and Heathera - do any of you need me to forward the book on to you?

I started Sarah's Key tonight. I'm 10 pages in and hooked already. If anyone wants to borrow my copy, let me know.

Looking forward to chatting with you Tatiana

just posting to see if everyone had got a chance to get reading the two copies I was circulating.  I know Heathera has just got the one I gave to Anne but am not sure where the other one is?  I know Lisa and Josie were interested in reading it.
