| 12. |  | The Kite Runner from Bloomsbury Publishing PLC Price: £3.15 Customer Review:  Just a short review as there are so many already - BUT .... I was a bit disappointed by The Kite Runner, not least because I read A Thousand Splendid Suns first and expected this book to be as good - it wasn't. Another reviewer said of The Kite Runner 'It's an adequate story, filled with parts... |

| 13. |  | The Outcast from Vintage Price: £3.86 Customer Review:  I read this book in 1.5 days much to my wife's irritation since I was supposed to be helping look after the children while on holiday! Other reviewers have referred to the clautrophobia of the 1950s which I would entirely concur with, there is a fawning sense of hierarchy and keeping up appearances... |

| 14. |  | Watchmen from Titan Books Ltd Price: £10.79 Customer Review:  Inevitably over-rated after all that has been said and written about it, and about Alan Moore, this remains a necessary touchstone for anyone interested in the overlap between traditional fiction and graphic novels (ok, comics). Not quite as compelling as From Hell in its attempt at the serious,... |

| 15. |  | East of the Sun from Orion Price: £3.86 Customer Review: I was looking forward to this book but was disappointed. I found it slow and a little dreary. Very little happens. Not even a great love story. So much of the book was taken up on the boat to India, I kept wondering if they were ever going to get there. After reading so many other gripping books... |

| 17. |  | What I Talk About When I Talk About Running from Harvill Secker Price: £6.49 Customer Review: Well I'm coming at this from he opposite direction from Emma (above), but I agree with her assessment of the book. As a 50-something runner and lover of Murakami's novels I found this fascinating - read it in one sitting (well, lying - it was an overnight hospital stay). Recmmended for... |

| 18. |  | New Moon (Twilight Saga) from ATOM Price: £3.98 Customer Review: An enjoyable read but follows a very similar pattern to the first book which makes it far too predictable and slightly repetitive. Having said that, I think the relationship between Bella and Jacob was far superior than Edward and Bella - how many people will shoot me down for that? :). I think this... |

| 19. |  | The Book Thief from Black Swan Price: £3.86 Customer Review: This book was addictive from the very first page. I never wanted it to end. I walked around in a daze after I finished it for a few days. I just could not get the characters out of my head. I grew to love Liesel and wanted her to be my little girl, she was so real. How dreadful war torn Germany was... |

| 20. |  | When Will There Be Good News? from Doubleday Price: £8.09 Customer Review: I love Kate Atkinson's writing (I don't usually buy books in hardback!) and did enjoy this novel, finishing it in a matter of days. However, I can't deny that it felt a little cluttered - too many perspectives; too many personal tragedies; too much drama and bloody violence. I felt that an... |
