I'm going to try this

Okay, I'm having trouble figuring out how to get Google to find my new business site - Quality Research Data Services at www.qrds.com.au - so I'm being sneaky and linking it here (a site that Google has found) to see if that helps. Anyone else want to link to me - you feel free :)

Another Jodi Piccoult

I just recently finished Songs of the Humpback Whale - borrowed from Michelle - and at this point I think I've come to realise that I just like my books to go from beginning to end. While I loved the story that was told (a mother and daughter journey their way across the US away from their husband and father - meanwhile he sets off in pursuit of them) - I found the telling of it a little odd. It was one of those stories where it was told from the viewpoint of 5 different people - which I don't altogether mind - however the first paragraph of each new timepoint/date was written by the daughter and she wrote it from end to beginning... like a movie going backwards. But everyone else was telling the story the correct way - from beginning to end - and my confusion was not aided by the fact that it took me about 6 CHAPTERS to figure that out... sigh. My brain is addled since my arrest.... cardiac arrest I mean.. LOL. Anyway, I would definitely read more of her stuff.

On the 'book borrowing from the library' front you'll all be pleased to know that I am 61st in line to borrow Eat Love Pray.... bloody hell - I"ll just buy it today no doubt.
