They say you should never work with animals & children so I may live to regret this decision but without the aid of a safety net, today, I had on the show Ellie (5years) and Phoebe (4years) with their mum Gemma.
My other guests were Lydia Birch and Maggie Perkovich.
Books being reviewed were:
Gemma cunningham - Endless Night by Richard Layman
Lydia Birch - House at Riverton by Kate Morton
Maggie Perkovich - Tainted by Brooke Morgan
Ellie & Phoebe discussed their favourite books which were Dr Seuss Green Eggs and Ham, Cinderella & Billys birthday lollipop by Lennart Hellsing.
One reviewer of Kate Mortons book on 'Amazon' made me laugh:
Quote:'This book made me so angry. Please tell me how many English villages have "habberdashers" that sell dictaphones and are open on a SUNDAY!!!! I'd also like to know where a 1920s housemaid got hold of "tights"!? Not invented till the 1960s. There is no excuse for this sort of sloppy error, the author should do more research and sack her obviously uneducated editors for allowing these jarring mistakes to go unchallenged'.
Another reviewer who reviewed Brooke Morgans book on Amazon was also funny:
Quote:'My first impressions weren't of a charismatic yet sinister man, but rather a caricature of an uptight English twit. He sits next to Holly and immediately starts wooing her, at the same time having a go at a poor woman behind him whose young child is kicking the seat, an American Vicky Pollard who is shouting into her mobile phone, and then ranting about binge drinking amongst young people in Britain. It was more Norris Cole than sexy and sinister, and if I had been Holly, I'd have thought him an idiot... no matter how dashing. However, I needn't of worried, as this proved to be the one weak point in the book and after the disappointing and slightly ridiculous first chapter, I was hooked into a tense psychological thriller'.
Gemma & Lydia discussed the merits of the Twilight series as Gemma is also a 'Cullen' fan.
I also read out some of the bizarre accidents which had crocked up football players off the pitch (1993/4 season...Beasant showed uncustomary clumsy hands and dropped a full jar of salad cream and instinctively stuck a leg out to negate the error. The jar smashed on his foot severing a tendon in his big toe)
