About Me
- Janette
- A couple of years ago, I decided that my life needed a challenge and I would put together a list of everything I wanted to do before I was 40. I e-mailed various media sources and BBC Radio Nottingham have kindly adopted me (sort of!). I will be doing regular updates on the Breakfast/Morning shows

That's super exciting that you're so close. You inspire me to work on my books as well!
Thanks TTD! I'm really looking forward to being able to read some of my to be read pile so I think that's spurring me on!
1500 pages in a week! You go! I've done well with reading in general this year, but as far as books on my list, I'm still quite a few behind for my goal this year!
Me too Jessica, that's why I want this one out of the way so I can read all my other books!
Congrats you are doing so well. what happens if you get bored half way through a book? Do you put it to one side and return to it at another time? I have just started Katy Regans 2nd novel. An easy read but with Youngling that's about all I can cope with right now - Nightmare! xx
I still continue with the book even though I get bored with it and yes believe me, there has been quite a few that I've been bored with. I read Katy Reagan's first book and thought it was okay - I also went to the Marie Claire event as well!
