I've only read Fingersmith, and I agree that it is a masterpiece, such a well-crafted book.

I keep seeing lots of copies of Never Let Me Go in the second-hand book store next to where I work. I am tempted.

I'd like to read Never Let Me Go too. Maybe we should nominate it for our March read?

When I got my kindle last year it was one of the first books I went to read on it and I read half but it bored me. It was ok but I think I wanted my first kindle read to grip me. I read Before I Go to Sleep instead.
Vote The True History of the Kelly Gang and give yourself the excuse to watch Heath Ledger;)

I've only read 3 of them - Never Let me go, The life of pi and The Lovely Bones. I'll admit I was a little underwhelmed by 'Never let me go' only because it had been raved about so much, if I'd read it without any of the hype I think I'd have liked it more.

I read half of Never Let Me Go when I first got my kindle but it never really grabbed me and I needed to read a book that would make me not want to put it down until I got used to it.
