Until one day the opportunity to make half a million dollars, tax-free, presented itself. And he had to do only one thing: nurture 390 acres of cannabis in the lonely hills of northern California.

I LOVED IT.. GREAT READ

In the winter of 1954, in a construction camp that festered like a ad wound in the remote Tasmanian highlands, when Sonja Buloh was three years old and her father was drinking too much, Sonja’s mother walked into a blizzard never to return.

Some thirty-five years later, when Sonja visits Tasmania and her drunkard father, the shadows of the past begin to intrude ever more forcefully into the present - changing forever his living death and her ordered life.

WHAT I THOUGHT

A MUST READ BOOK

In October of 1994, three student film makers disappeared in the woods near Burkittsville, Maryland, while shooting a documentary....

A year later their footage was found.

What actually happened to Heather Donahue, Michael Williams, and Joshua Leonard deep in the Maryland woods has become the stuff of legend. What they captured on film in their final days has transformed their sudden disappearance into one of America’s most suggestive nightmares.....

Now the complete story can be told.

WHAT I THOUGHT

MILDLY ENTERTAINING

Confronting and solving problems is a painful process which most of us attempt to avoid. And the very avoidance results in greater pain and an inability to grow both mentally and spiritually. Drawing heavily on his own professional experience, Dr M. Scott Peck, a practising psychiatrist, suggests ways in which facing our difficulties - and suffering through the changes - can enable us to reach a higher level of self-understanding. He discusses the nature of loving relationships: how to recognise true compatibility; how to

distinguish dependency from love; how to become one’s own person and how to be a more sensitive parent.

WHAT I THOUGHT

WORTH A READ!!

In her son’s remarkable memoir, she tells in her own words the story of her past. Around her narrative, James McBride has written a powerful portrait of growing up, a meditation on race and identity, and a poignant, beautifully crafted hymn from a son to his mother.

WHAT I THOUGHT

YOU WON’T PUT IT DOWN

In the long hot summer of 1972, three events shattered the serenity of ten-year-old Marsha’s life: her father ran away with her mother’s sister Ada; Boyd Ellison a young boy, was molested and murdered; and Watergate made the headlines. Living in a world no longer safe or familiar, Marsha turns increasingly to "the book of evidence’ in which she records the doings of the neighbours especially of shy Mr Green next door. Bus as Marsha’s confusion and the murder hunt both accelerate, her ‘facts’ spread the damage cruelly and catastrophically throughout the neighbourhood.

WHAT I THOUGHT

I picked this book up on a day heavily overcast with the residual effects of cyclone Steve. I made a hot drink (several actually) and lay on the bed and just began to read. I stayed there all day and finished this book in one sitting. It was a great story and it really kept you there till the very end. If you all think about it you all know a little girl like the one in this book

I LOVED THIS BOOK IT WAS BOTH MOVING AND SATISFYING.
