Reading Club - fiction & non-fiction

[jessicadazzler97]

 What y'all reading?

 Seems like there's a lot of bookworms around here. I'm currently a quarter of the way through Teach Yourself Fitness, great non-fiction book mainly about the mindset and motivation behind effective exercise. If that's not your cup of tea, tell me what is below!

Yeah, I guess that's a better situation, because otherwise you'd run out of books, hey? 🙂

I hadn't ever thought of that...

Although I have no idea how you read a book so quickly 😛

I don't watch much TV, Jess.

Now the Bachelorette is over, I am at a loose end at nights.

I suppose I could do housework, but somehow it hardly ever wins out.

I sometimes forget the end of a movie .

Half way through it all comes flooding back.

Not books though generally remember what

I've read and if I'm not absorbed by

The first ten pages or so, I give up

[opmania]

The most recent book I have read is

Young Blood

Its a true life account of the Family Murders

And particularly the abduction and death of Richard 

kelvin as told by the investigating officer who

Handled the case.

There has always been myth about this sequence

Of events.

Was Richard Kelvin somehow related to a television celebrity or am I thinking of another case?

[opmania]

He was the son of Rob Kelvin

Channel 9 news presenter

Has anyone read the book or seen the film of The Dressmaker? I was given the book for Christmas a couple of years ago and enjoyed it, but  I don't think I could bear to watch the film, knowing in advance  some  the things that are going to happen in it.
