* What is your favourite genre? - Probably fantasy, although I like to read quite a variety of genres and have recently got into thrillers and crime books. * Do you read the classics, i.e., the great authors of the 18th and 19th century? I've tried a couple but honestly not got very far. I got about 100 pages into Hard Times then gave up and similar with Pride and Prejudice. I just can't get my head around the Victorian way of writing - by that I mean I understand it, but it just doesn't grip me and want to make me keep on reading like more modern fiction does. I did however successfully manage to get through Alice in Wonderland - again I ...  Read the complete review

What would life be without books? I grew up in house so full of books it looks like a library, and I'm currently contemplating what to do with my own collection. I'm expecting to spend 2010 living in 3 different countries, so most of them will have to go.

I'm going through a bit of an Afghanistan ...  Read the complete review

Book Quiz *What is your favourite genre?* I love many different types of books, and go through phases of reading as much of one genre as I can lay my hands on, before I get bored and move onto something else.

I also like a bit of Chick lit, historical fiction and good old fashioned romance.

* What is your favourite genre? Like the weather, it changes constantly and usually depends on what Im writing in that moment. Right now, I've got an obsession with historical Fiction that's lasted quite a few months (which is unusual for me!). Tudor Court, Queen Victoria and Marie Antoinette-eras are by far my favorite subjects within the genre. Philippa Gregory is my favorite fiction author, and Antonia Fraiser and Evelyn Lever are my favorite 'biographical' authors of the periods. * Do you read the classics, i.e., the great authors of the 18th and 19th century? No yet. I do feel like I am missing out though by having not really read ...  Read the complete review
