the only books I've read recently that aren't work related are children's fiction. Luckily my boy has very good taste so I've been enjoying the likes of Eoin Colfer's "Artemis Fowl" series, Jonathen Stroud's "Bartimaeus" trilogy, lots of Terry Pratchet, Garth Nix (scary!), and of course, all the Harry Potter books (which aren't anywhere near as good as Artemis Fowl or Bartimaeus, but then what would I know, I'm just an adult!)
My nan. She has always been the best role model for me; a compassionate, determined and strong woman, who knows her own mind and is never afraid to speak it.
