Hi Mags, Ginnie and Paula

I was at the Hay on Wye Festival last weekend and the weekend before and had a fabulous time. The sun was shining and I felt a complete groupie meeting all my favourite authors and hearing them talking about their latest books and how they write - all so different.

I saw Victoria Hislop, Kate Atkinson, Zoe Heller, Sarah Waters - and Marcus Zusak who wrote the Book Thief which I loved - amongst others. I can't wait to read Sarah Waters' latest, as soon as my daughter finishes it! I now have a pile of books beside my bed to keep me going through the summer holidays.

Happy reading!
