Books to Read

1. Life of Pi I had sort of wanted to read this for a while then as the film came out I decided I'd do it soon, definitely before seeing the film!  I got this for my Kindle off Amazon for 20p!

2. Divergent I've heard good things about this series, it's one of those 'if you liked The Hunger Games then you'll love this!' so it's worth a go.  Currently on my Amazon wishlist.

3. Killing Floor I hadn't heard of the Jack Reacher series until my friend mentioned it and said they are amazing.  We were off college for a week and she read FIVE!  As far as I can tell this is the first installment but there's also one actually called Jack Reacher... hmm.

4. The Fault In Our Stars Well of course I need to read this to find out what all the fuss is about!  It went down to about £4 on Amazon so I bought it before it went back up!

5. The Woman in Black I loved the film, and I went to see the play when it came to Glasgow and it was so good.  It was only two guys acting the whole thing - then the woman in black of course, imagine having her job, what a skive!!  I've not read any scary books since those ones from school (Babysitter, Babysitter 2, Babysitter 3, etc... I'm sure there were other ones but those stand out!) so I thought it would be quite interesting, also to see how it differs from the film and the play.

Have you got any books high up on your 'to read' list?

  1. I really don't understand what the fuss is about Life of Pi. I failed to get past a couple of pages thought it was boring :)

  2. I read a sample of Divergent and it was pretty good, I keep meaning to get the full book but I haven't yet.. I have so many books to read but top of my list is Heartstone by CJ Sansom. It's the 5th in a series of murder mysteries set in Tudor England and the rest were amazing. I've been kind of putting it off because I don't want the series to end lol stupid I know.. Xx

  5. I need to check out that Divergent book, since I love the Hunger Games (obsessed :P). Life of Pi is on my "to read" list for quite some time now, I need to finally read it.
    Nice post, I love books! :)
