    I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings by Maya Angelou Wishlist

    But Inside I'm Screaming by Elizabeth Flock Wishlist - I loved her novel 'Me & Emma'

    Sophie's World by Jostein Gaarder Wishlist

    Shopaholic Ties The Knot by Sophie Kinsella I kind of enjoyed it - interesting as I hated the first one - but there were a lot of cringe-worthy moments!

    Change of Heart by Jodi Picoult Wishlist

    Picture Perfect by Jodi Picoult Wishlist

    Salem Falls by Jodi Picoult Really enjoyed this, kind of based on Arthur Miller's 'The Crucible.' I think it's a marmite novel - some people on RiSi haven't thought much of it.

    Songs of the Humpback Whale by Jodi Picoult Wishlist

    Second Glance by Jodi Picoult One of my favourites - really unusual and not like her typical court-dramas.

    Sorceress by Celia Rees My least favourite of Rees's novels, it just seemed...so odd! I did really like 'Pirates!' though.

    "... And That's When It Fell Off In My Hand" by Louise Rennison Her novels can be really funny but get a bit samey. This one was okay.

    Pay It Forward by Catherine Ryan Hyde Loved this, wonderful story! And such a sweet idea.

    Chasing Harry Winston by Lauren Weisberger Wishlist - I really enjoyed her first novel.

    Re: Katie's TBR

    The Da Vinci Code - enjoyed but preferred Angels & Demons
    It - Read years ago and put me off reading Stephen King books.  Hated the tv show too.
    Pemberley - Love Pride & Prejudice but hated this.  Darcy & Lizzie just did not seem right in this book.
    Picture of Dorian Gray - enjoyed
