“don’t buy new books until you’ve read the ones who are waiting to be read”? Ooops. Guilty. Terribly guilty. I can’t remember a time when I hadn’t books “in stock”, but it’s a kind of a comforting thought to know I’ll never be short of reading material. And you reminded me I have wanted to read this “curious incident” for ages, so I guess I’ll add further to my pile… :)

@Kate: I’ll let you know when I have read Mark Haddon’s new one. The Curious Incident is one of my favourite books ever, so he has a lot to live up to. I am currently reading Book Lover, and it’s OK, but not great. It’s nice to be back on track with reading again though. :)

I’ll be interested in knowing what you think about Mark Haddon’s book … “Curious Incident … ” was fascinating for me, partly because my 14-yr.-old son has Asperger’s.

I haven’t heard of “Book Lover” – will have to try and track it down.

Yes Cary Grant was of course also the one I meant. It’s just like real life: too many boys and I get confused. :) And yes George is too beautiful, he gets away with it (for me at least) because he is intelligent. :)

Yes book for Kevin he is always worth watching. The play he is going to be in won’t be on before January 2008 though, so we have to be patient.

Ooh Kev in a new play! Not that I’ve had a lot of luck with him!! I managed to see The Philadelphia Story but had tix for both Richard II and Moon for the Misbegotten and couldn’t go due to illness and stroppy husband!
Won’t stop me booking agian though;)
I have to say about George C, what’s not to love? Far too good-looking but he’s got “something” I always see him as a Cary Grant for our times rather than Clark Gable.
