Reading Record (cont...)

21-"Anybody Out There" (Thanks Lauren)
By Marian Keyes
AnnaWalsh is a mess. After beingin a horrific accident she is desperate to leave the care of her parents and return to her much loved life in New York, which of course includes the most fabulous job and Aiden. Unfortunately Aiden seems unwilling to regain contact with Anna. The book documents Anna's journey as she struggles to replace all the pieces of her puzzle, missing since the accident. This book made me cry. That'll do.Oi!!!! HEHEHEHE! scoff... scowl... silence...hehehehehehehstop!





22-"Disgrace"
By J.M.Coetzee
This was the most disappointing book so far! It is about a middle-aged college professor who has an impulsive affair with one of his students. This affair turns ugly and he is summoned before a committee for an inquiry. He openly admits his guilt and takes off to his daughter's farm. At the farm he and his daughter are the victims of a savage attack which puts even more strain on the father-daughter relationship.
