    i'm just finishing off reading "the abortionist's daughter" by elizabeth hyde. its a kind of short book for me but its been enjoyable.

    next i'm going to read "the island" by victoria hislop which my mum has lent me. she says its an excelent read. based on a true island of greece where they put people who were suffering from leprosy.

    it's a graphic novel, I still haven't decided how much I like it, but it's good enough to keep my interest; so yeah.
