    The Wasp Factory, Iain Banks.

    So, so good... Very compelling. There are bits where, as the mystery unfolds, you'll be tearing through the text with your eyes. I highly recommend it!

    4/5.

    The virgin suicides
    5/5
    I lovedd this book. It's very descriptive about everything in a good way, though i wish it was longer.

    Good Omens by Terry Pratchett and Neil Gaiman
    4/5

    Really enjoyed this book, loses a point because I found the first half of the book a bit sloppy in places. But there are some great parts and I was smiling throughout

    The Help - Kathryn Stockett. 4/5.

    Really great book - really enjoyed it. I just felt there were a few loose ends not tied up, which is what stops me from giving it a 5.

    (Original post by DebatingGreg)
    Read The Interrogative Mood by Padgett Powell. 4.5/5, as IT'S COMPOSED ENTIRELY OF QUESTIONS. Just questions, like "Are your emotions pure?" and "Where do you stand in relation to the potato?" in a prose format with no answers! Sounds like chaos, and it did feel weird, but it flows surprisingly well, and great for reading chronologically or dipping in and out of.
    Will read.
