books by the bed

So here I am, mid cleaning, and listening to Bob Seger. I have decided to take a break and list the books I've read over the last couple of weeks which were in a pile by the bed. In no particular order of merit:

The other side of silence Andre Brink (****)
The photographer's wife Robert Sole (***)
The girl in the red coat Ronnie Ligocka (**)
The six wives of Henry VIII Antonia Fraser (*****)
Star of the sea Joseph O'Connor (****)
Holy Fools Joanne Harris (***)
Odd Thomas Dean Koontz (*)
Cold Mountain Charles Frazier (***)

Re reads:

Year of wonders Geraldine Brooks (*****)
An instance of the fingerpost Iain Pears (*****)

It's not been a bad crop, but I'm going to have to get down to Waterstones to buy the next batch. I'm sorry I can't make the list easier to read, anyone know how to tab in Quickpost?
