Did this search and realised that there was a blow by blow account of the book, which I didn't read, incidentally. What I read was the first paragraph and it sounds spooky and I am a scardey cat. I'll give it a go if it isn't too frightening, but it doesn't take much to have me hiding behind the settee. I am brave and reckless quite often, but some things I cannot read or watch.

I think we should start from the bottom and work our way up so I suggest 'Irene Iddesleigh' by the irrascible Amanda McKittrick Ros.

She was a great lady and invented so much that has developed the novel in English even if she was Irish.

I collect her first editions especially with her hand written notations. She was a wonderful lady.

[quote user="Gardener"]The Kite Runner Khaled Hosseini[/quote]

When I realised Khaled knew very little about kite flying my enjoyment of his story ended.

His previous book was much better.
