Twice the Fun

Heya,

     Where is that review? Well it will be coming, just been busy with work (yes the same excuse as last time). I am a third year so my work is priority. Since I do like to procrastinate from my work on the odd occasion (more than that), I chose to read a book since I have been slow with the current one. Its called The Dead of Summer by Camilla Way, currently half way through the book and its certainly a different writing style from the previous books I have been reading.

Synopsis: Its about this girl called Anita, whose mother just died and the family decide to move to a new area of London. She meets Kyle, a isolated, cold and quiet boy, who has an interest in caves and mines. Accompanied by their friend Denis, they form a weird friendship. However in these mines willl be the scene for a crime which alter Anitas life completely.

   So far I am enjoying it, though a tad depressing at times. Will try and move onto something more light hearted or not as heavy, maybe Tales of the City by Armistead Maupin or Nocturnes by Kazuo Ishiguo (he who wrote Remains of the Day, a brilliant read if you have the chance). But yeah, you may hear from me in a short space of time, hopefully within a week. Though I dont want to set a date, otherwise I wont meet it, like the last time.

Anyway, happy reading! Oh, if any of you are readers are also gamers, I created a games page, so give that one a look when you can:
