I'm just reading 'Lisey's Story' by Stephen King, it was a present from my sister for my birthday in December. I am finding it really hard going but determined to finish it, not to SK's usual calibre i think!!

I'm a bit of a mixed bag to be honest, if it's really good feel free to recommend it whatever it is. I never stick to one specific genre I like variety in all things Although do have to say I'm not into Sci-fi.

I take it that's not a recommendation then Although I do the same, I have to finish it rather than give up.

It just seems to flit about all over the place and it is quite difficult to follow although if anyone else has read it and thinks differently I wouldn't mind them giving me some idea of what is going on!!!!

I've just finished reading 'Gaskin' by Paul Bedford, it's about a brutal murder which happened in Hednesford, Staffordshire in 1919. This work tells the story of Gaskin's tragic life...

I live just across the way from a place called 'Gaskins Wood' which was the scene of the crime

Seriously though I found the book really intresting and couldn't put it down.
