/white/The White Tiger by Aravind Adiga cleverly written novel but a real downer. 2 stars. Read Dec 2012

//fire//The Girl Who Played With Fire by Stieg Larsson
read last month. I'm working from the last correct entry, number 525 "Catching Fire". Sorry my inserted comment confused you Charbel.
Laura - there's a good synopsis of the book on Wikipedia - I don't think it's very highly regarded - hopefully it's not just me. I too have loved all the other Trollopes I've read. Maybe he wasn't really up to his usual writing standard as this was his last book.
That looks really interesting Alannah!//Dolphins//
Tale of Two Dolphins by Horace E. Dobbs
fascinating read about dolphin behaviour
