I've read This Perfect World and really enjoyed it. I've got The Crying Tree on TBR but I voted for Pure cos I really fancy it.

Ditto. I've got two or three of them on my TBR already, so I'll play 'ip dip doo' I think.
Mr Grey I don't mind at all if Henry Cavill plays you.

Re: RISI Book Group - July Choices
I've gone for The Crying tree, cos it's on my TBR, but some are on my wishlist, so if something else wins I might have to treat myself!
