    The Pact - Jodi Picoult This is my least favourite Jodi Picoult. I would give it 3/5 if it weren't for the fact that it was so well written, so whenever I review it I give it 4/5. The characters just irritated me so much.

    Tenth Circle - Jodi Picoult Consequently, because the above book involved teenagers I'm wary to read this one, in case it's the same. I read an extract and I didn't like it too much. I don't like the way teenagers are portrayed in a lot of adult books, as I can never relate to them! Interesting as I'm only just (nearly, 14 days!) seventeen. A friend of mine read this one (in her second langauge, too!) and liked it, but she also liked The Pact, so I'm still a bit wary.

    No Time for goodbye - Linwood Barclay Want to read this one, looks really interesting.

    The Girls - Lori Lansen Recently read this one and really liked it. There were some bits where I lost interest, and the book wasn't really amazing, but it was written very realistically - it read like an autobiography - so I really enjoyed it. 4/5 rather than 5/5, I think.

    Down to 44 on my TBR - think I'm getting through it rather nicely.  I have banned myself from swapping (requesting them that is) and buying books for a little while until I whittle it down.

    Reading - Dear Fatty - Dawn French
