Sadly I'm in mild remission from my addiction at the moment and I hate it. Still find I cannot actually walk past a bookshop without going in (just in case).
Oh, I love the idea of Daisy's bookshop - if only.
Read "The Great Fire" by "Shirley Hazzard" recently and it was one of those books where you got so lost in the beauty of the language that you had to go back and re-read bits to see what actually happened in the narrative. Also just finished "The Time Traveller's Wife" by "Audrey Niffenegger" - incredible, but, and this is a big but there is a suicide and one of the characters suffers multiple misscariages so if they would trigger you I would advise against.
Maybe we should start up BOB Bookaholics On Babble?
