    The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August, by Claire North. Imagine leading a normal life, albeit with a photographic memory. You are born, you go to school, you settle down and get a job, have a family, grow old and eventually pass away. You remember everything. Now imagine being born again in the same year as before, going to the same school, having the same family, only you can remember everything from the previous life you lived before. Would you do anything differently? How would it affect you?

    Now imagine living the same life over and over fifteen times. That's what this nook is about. It's a voyage of discovery as Harry finds out who and what he is, what it means and the responsibilities that come with someone knowing exactly what's going to happen and when. It's very well written, very readable and difficult to put down after just one chapter! Very well worth reading.

    I'm reading Wildtrack by Bernard Cornell

    I miss seeing people read on the bus Stella. Now its tablets and it's really hard to seek a peak at what they are reading.

    She kinda stood out cos the woman in front of her had a kindle and the other folk on her side of the bus were all tinkering with mobile phones. I love gadgets but one thing a can't do is read on an electronic device. There is just something about turning a page which can't be substituted

    No. I read it when I was in school but it has been a few years. Great book with a hidden message.

    I got a copy of Animal Farm out the hospital bookshop a few weeks ago, not read it yet though, I've never read it. I always read paper books, someone in the canteen at work commented that they liked my use of modern technology as I had my book sat on the table with my mobile phone sat on top holding the pages open.
