[Margaret Pilkington]

I have just read 'The Island' by Victoria Hislop, and thoroughly enjoyed it.
I usually get through two or three books per week, the one that I found the hardest read was Sophie's World.....it is not a very thick book, but it is very, how shall I put it...... metaphysical. I'm not sure if I enjoyed it, but I was certainly educated about the world of philosophers by the time I had read it.
I don't think it would qualify for a 'summer read' with Richard and Judy.
