I will read it when I get back. I loved Life of Pi- but one person I recommended it to hated it- who cares what the reviews say? Read what you like (unless you like Barbara Cartland...)

I just read The Cabal yesterday- boy Ellen Gilchrist is excellent. I meant to bring the book- I have some quotes for you. I NEVER find quotes in books I like- but this one- yeah, I did. Will send them next week. You will like them. You WILL like them. :-)

I am reading Fielding's new book Olivia Joules- great fun read, I recommend it- I further recommend reading it in the bath whilst soaking in Kniepp's sparkling bath tablets- wonderful soothing tablets- you should be able to get them in the states. I get four tablets to a box- lavender, Melissa, Rosemary and Pine- they were developed in the 19th century by Sabastian Kniepp a cleric who devoted his life to research into the natural powers of holistic medicine and herbs. Really, I don't usually rave about products unless they are super- and this one really is- and unlike the food here, which is brilliant, I think you might actually be able to get Kniepp's bath tablets in the US. I sure hope you can. Not only do they smell fantastic, and leave your skin perfumed for a long time, but they really do seem to be soothing.
