Sing you home - Jodi Picoult

Another classic Jodi Picoult - tackling the current issues in a romanticised way. No shocking twist at the end, however.

Book Number Thirty Five - Whose Life is it Anyway?


Whose Life is it Anyway? - Sinead Moriarty

A light, easy to read Irish chick lit.

Book Number Thirty Four - Stories I only tell my friends


Stories I only tell my friends - Rob Lowe

An autobiographical account of this young hollywood star. I got the sense that he was trying to be polite and not offend too many people - very diplomatic even at the most controversial events. Very disappointing that we did not here more of the West Wing Story also.
