I finished the book in two days. I felt it was very moving though don't want to give anything away incase others haven't read it yet. I have found the authors website though and am keen to read her other books. Looking forward to discussing it.

HC I have been having a bit of trouble getting a copy of this. I've had it on order for ages, so may have to miss this months unless you're happy to delay chatting about it. I must just see if it is available on ebooks.

Right I'll try Amazon. So far I've ordered it from W H Smith and Ottakers and they are both struggling to get it. Knowing my luck all three copies will arrive on the same day.
