Cinnamon Posted October 22, 2010 Share Posted October 22, 2010 I am really excited - I have just read a book, this one: http://www.amazon.co.uk/Williams-Progress-Matt-Rudd/dp/0007308981/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1287765053&sr=8-2 and about halfway through,the 'hero' (think a male Bridget Jones,for whom life never goes well), looses his job. He decides to go green & buys an Eglu & 2 hens - lovely description of the Omlet man making his delivery, & the wait for eggs. Then one of the hens has a prolapse,so he COMES ONTO THE FORUM FOR ADVICE Wish I knew who it was, & wish even more that he had given reason for me to mod him The book is also available on Kindle,& is very good. I would recommend reading the prequel first though http://www.amazon.co.uk/William-Walkers-First-Year-Marriage/dp/0007308973/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1287765053&sr=8-1 Just a note: It is written from a male point of view & is a little graphic when it comes to descriptions of the prolapse & subsequent events leading to the death of a hen,it is a comedy novel,but the humour is very,very black,so may not suit all.

Cinnamon Posted February 17, 2011 Author Share Posted February 17, 2011 You need to make a 'to read' category on your Kindle,or it all gets very confusing! Then when you download a new book add it to that category as well as its wider one (chick lit,Historical,Factual etc), then you can just remove it when you have finished it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
