I am going to make a note of all of these books to read when I am on my next 2ww!!!

Am on reading a book by Kathy Reichs, have read some of hers before - crime stories but she is a forensic anthropologist. Not very lighthearted but really good reads!

Harlan Coban is quite good too but some of his books follow a similar thread.

So big J - what's your plan?!?

Still haven't got the DV code back :twisted: dh has been working so hard and falling into bed so no time for reading...

Thought you might like the following as I am reading them to keep me sane while waiting for Barcelona:

The Time Travellers Wife -Audrey Niffenegger
Good because you have to keep up with all the time shift thing, really mind boggling, I ended up having to write things down :lol: :lol: Nice love story too 8)

For spiritual lift I have started reading The Prophet (Kahil Gibran) again every nite before going to sleep. It helped me a lot during my depression and is helping me keep things in perspective. It's a wonderful little book :lol:
Also reading John Edward "After Life". I used to watch is TV show when in the UK. His style is very light hearted and warm :lol:
Normally I like good crime stories but can't face anything gory or negative right now :shock:

Just in case anyone, particularly the 2wwers, are looking for some easy reading material I have just read a really good love story

Innocence by Kathleen Tessaro

It was truly a page-turner :!: Well worth a gander for those with time on their hands.

Little P :wink:

Hi everyone,

my friend gave me Inconceivable (B.Elton) to read but without a good reason I couldn't get started on it (I think I was scared, if it make sense to anyone out there). I will now. Thanks!

Cheers,

Over the time I have had scans, ec and et I read Marian Keyes Further Under the Duvet. Nothing to do with IVF etc but laugh out loud funny. I love her books and certainly recommend this one esp to those on their 2ww.

Happy Christmas!
