Am reading Sarah Waters' Fingersmith. Am loving every page of it.

I've only seen the movie but I've heard good things about the book.

[lotesse]

How's the movie? (you should read the book.)

[wishfulclicking]

The movie was good.

I don't know if you've reached the first big plot twist yet, but after that it's absolutely unputdownable.

[lotesse]

Yes, I've been discovering that. I'd only intended to read for a while, and then get down to writing - but now I almost think I'll finish it tonight!

Wow, huh, it's my least favourite of Waters' books. It didn't work for me at all. Perhaps it was just the time I was reading it.

[lotesse]

Dude, I ate the entire thing last night. "Worked for me" would be an understatement!

Out of curiosity, which did you like?

[kennahijja]

I'm not at all surprised :). It's one great book!

[lotesse]

Like, oh man. It's been a while since I felt like I had to read a novel in a single sitting!

I won't spoil you for it, but the (partial) reveal of the mystery plot at mid-book is brilliant.

[lotesse]

No worries about spoilers - I finished it Friday night! Pretty much because I hit that plot twist right about where I'd thought I was going to stop for the evening, and only accelerated instead. Because. Wow.
