She is amazing, I personally love all of her books except picture perfect, only book iv never finished ever, she is such a amazing person i met her last year in Canberra she signed two of my books! I suggest reading 'nineteen minutes' after you have finished reading keeper :) also perfect match is amazing to well all her books are!! :D:D:D

Right now im reading Brontes Story. because i had nothing else to read.. Need a really good book right now :D
This is my first of her's, I've heard so much about her. I probably wouldn't have read anything of hers though, if it wasn't for my cousin lending this book to my Mum. You're lucky having met her! That would have been a great experience.

I will have to read those two books when I'm done. Thanks for the suggestion. You should read the two books I had just read, they're amazing too.

atm im reading 'The Devious Book for Cats' by Fluffy and Bonkers. Its a parody of the dangerous book for boys and the daring book for girls, its pretty funny if your a cat person. Chapters like: Cardboard boxes, The Window, Staring like a pro, toying with allergy suffers, the vacuum cleaner: vortex of terror.

I'm reading Fighting Words by Hector Avalos. Book about how religious violence is the same as secular violence in that it involves fighting over scarce resources, except that the sacred scarce resources are all only perceived, and not actually real, so it's really actually a stupid excuse.

aww, it is a good book. its amazing, cuz holden caulfield is like a real person(though its prob mostly salingers past experiences). its fun as, how he just speaks to the prostitute

the ending was the best part of the book, how u have to let kids experience things for themselves
