With all the travelling lately, Bunny has had a lot of time to read…and I have to admit that lots of it has been chick-lit, not even worth mentioning 
However, among all the chick lit, Cecelia Ahern always stands out. Bunny has probably read everything she has had published so far, most people are familiar with P.S. I Love You, however, Where Rainbows End, If You Could See Me Now, A Place Called Here, Thanks for the Memories and The Gift are all worth reading (and Samantha Who is of course funny too). So, The Book of Tomorrow, definitely worth a read too….took me a little while to warm to the main character, however, as always there is a thickening plot, more complexity involved than you’d think…and think I’m not revealing too much when I say that there is also a happy ending 
If you have never ready anything by Jo Nesbø, this is a good time to start – that is – as soon as this is translated into English Panserhjerte (Panzer Heart) is his eight book about Harry Hole. Two women are found dead in Oslo, both having drowned in their own blood and been stabbed in the mouth… Harry is dragged back from a drugged out existence in Hong Kong, and this case that turns out to be his most difficult so far. As well, he is faced with new, tough opponents inside the police force, and even though he has been weakened by his own severe abuse of his body, he must fight several enemies simultaneously.
Nothing beats a good chick-lit book when it’s cold outside….and Fiona Neill is at the higher end of the scale, I still love her Secret Life of a Slummy Mummy, both the Times column and the books… Friends, Lovers and other Indiscretions is in the same category, well written, interesting characters…but it does make me happy I’m not married
When Bunny first saw the cover she thought Nick Hornby had written teenage fiction again, like Slam…but thought hey, worth reading anyway. Fortunately Juliet, Naked actually sees him returning to his favourite topic, the music industry. Well written and interesting, though I still think he is better at the male perspective (How to be Good was horrendous). The ending feels a bit abrupt as well…
If a chocolate meltdown isn’t your thing, Bunny recommends reading Ben Elton…yes, one of my favourite authors… Meltdown is an interesting take on the recession. I would recommend hiding the front page if you are reading it on a plane or any other form of public transportation tho…
Bunny was SO happy finding that a 6th Hitchhiker’s Guide to the Galaxy book has been written…And Another Thing…if you are a fan get it now!!! If not, start here… This review in the Guardian summarises my thoughts precisely….
So, Bunny has just finished reading Marian Keyes’ The Brightest Star in the Sky…
I am a big fan of her books so was much looking forward to it…but then it took me quite a while to really get into it, the narrative is very different from her previous books, and I found it hard to follow the story…up to a certain point – suddenly I found myself under the same Keyes magic as I am used to….and all is well that ends well
Friday the 13th turned out not to be a lucky day for London Lite, which announced that it was it’s final edition. With The LondonPaper caving in earlier this autumn, this leaves us with The Evening Standard as the only free evening paper… To be honest, travelling in to London from Kingston every afternoon I hardly ever see an evening paper anyway…now, what would be a drama was if Metro went bust…I need my daily hit of Nemi
Bunny is a little bit in love with a man she has never met - currently reading Blood, Sweat & Tea - a book by ambulance technician Brian Kellett, writing under the pseudonym Tom Reynolds (which is funny, as he warns about using pseudonyms when blogging). The book is about life in the London Ambulance Service and is based on his blog Random Acts of Reality. I must have missed out on the entire phenomenon – the blog, the radio show – but happy to at least have been introduced to the book. Read more about Tom Reynolds aka Brian Kellett. I was very curious to find out what he looked like - so googled up this image…seems he has got lots of equipment to schlep around…
So, Bunny just finished Dan Brown’s latest book, The Lost Symbol. A little less conspiracy theory this time…so it lacks a bit of edge…and there is something really weird about his admiration for the Masons…quite catching read tho, and I do sympathise with a lot of the views. Would probably head enjoyed it even more if I’d actually been to Washington. Even so, Bunny would still prefer to read more about dust
