Michelle would it be worth trying Amazon. If not I suggest you read and review the Kite Runner which you should be able to get. As I suggested it I will read and review it too then we still have a comparison.

Seen this Ann. I may have to wait a couple of weeks for Searching for Tilly though. It seems very popular at the moment!

Michelle....sorry! Valerie Wood is a local author and I didn't stop to think that you might not be able to get it over there

Seen, though I think I might not be able to get a hold of The Hungry Tide as I can only find one library with it on the internet tonight and that one is in the South Island, will check with local library tomorrow - Michelle
