i'm reading wideacre at the moment but i haven't made much progress on it. did you get it using the sunday star times free voucher? i like philippa gregory books but when i read the blurb on the back it sounded boring. when i started reading it, it was more interesting than i thought it would be.

what did you think of it seeing as you've finished it? how long did it take you to read it? it's fairly long so i'm impressed that you finished it so soon. i'm going to try reading 50 books this year which means i will have to read at least 4 books per month.

It took me a while to get into it too - Mum got it from Whitcoulls, I think it was from that sunday star times thing, because she's just got the next book in the wideacre series, the favoured child i think it's called, the same way.

I think it's a good book, I probably prefer Phillipa's elizabethan england ones a bit better, but the plot in wideacre is good, lots of twists and turns and the main character Beatrice is pretty well done - it's like she's evil, but you still feel some sympathy for her.

I'm trying to do 50 this year too - I've just finished my third one, so i'm not doing too bad.

according to the C4 website fallout boy are playing in auckland on the 5th of march this year at the st james theatre. it's an all ages show. presale tickets go on sale on the 24th and 25th of january from real groovy in auckland or from the ticket direct website if you use the password "infinity". you can go to the C4 website to see for yourself. it should be awesome if it's true. i want to go but it depends on whether i find someone to go with.
