    I know LuluHB. It was a perfect ending to the book and there's no reason why it wasn't kept true in the movie.

    The director of Tomorrow When The War Began is also directing (and screenwriting) the next one and is considering a massive change in there too with one of the characters. I don't understand why they want to change things when the book is a bestseller - it doesn't need to be altered or "improved". Just leave it true to what people know and love.

    I am about to start reading Catherine Alliott - A Rural Affair. I have just finished Isabel Wolff - The Very Picture of You and really enjoyed it.

    Hey OP, I was the same with the Twilight series, didn't think it was going to my kind of thing. I raced through them!

    I'm taking three books in with me to hospital (not that I expect to read three books, but I might read a little of one or two, and I don't want to try to predict what I'll feel like doing...) so I'm taking a John Grisham, a Jackie Collins and a Lauren Weisberger.

    Let's see if I read anything at all!!

    I recently read the Hunger Games trilogy on my kindle. I love my kindle too!
    Yesterday I finished The Birth House. Loved it. Set in Canada, 1910's. Very topical themes actually- the struggle for women to decide where they birth; the demonisation of women who shun medical management of pregnancy and birth. And some of the characters have great names.

    OP- I love the Jack Reacher books. I've read them all.
    Sarah- your books sound very interesting. I've read the kindle sample of 'Before I Go to Sleep'. Very intriguing.

    Currently I am reading Michael Connelly's first book, Black Echo. I haven't read a Connelly book before. I love the crime/legal genre and I've read all of John Grisham's books, so hopefully Connelly can fill the gap.
