Not getting on with reading as fast as I should to make the deadline - too much else going on I'm afraid. I have read it before however and remember quite a lot of it. Just finding the language completely entrancing this time round. |

I'm about 3/4 way through. Should have it finished soon. Will we extend deadline for folks? |

I believe the answer earlier was "yes"; assume it still stands ..... |

i've got a couple of chapters to go.. I don't want to finish it so taking my time. it's the best book ive read for a long time and totally different to my usual read! |

I'm not even half way through; hardly had any time to myself and I don't want to rush it as Im enjoying it so much, perhaps even more than the first time round. Can we extend the deadline? Maybe for another week or week and a half?? Sorry to folks who have already finished!  |

What do they look like in your mind's eye? I think it's OK to post this, rather than start discussing the book? Do you find that if you are 'in' to a book you easily visualise the character? I had Clare and Henry pictured from an early stage. Here they are Henry http://tbn3.google.com/images?q=tbn:..._ugb_henry.jpg who happens to be Henry in the TV series Ugly Bety too. He's a bit geeky in that pic (as he is in the prog) but he's my picture of 'library boy'. It wasn't till I reread this time that I learnt that Henry is actually quite a dish, although skinny. But this Henry (Christopher Gorham) scrubs up nicely too, so perhaps this is more as Henry deTamble should be http://tbn2.google.com/images?q=tbn:..._gorham_02.jpg http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:...AF9510BBCC.jpg and Clare has always been Sally Thomsett, in Railway Children/Man About the House days [IMG]http://tbn3.google.com/images?q=tbn  t8fQBd0tjkZ0M:http://www.moviemarket.co.uk/thumbnails/150thumbs/178512.jpg[/IMG]http://tbn0.google.com/images?q=tbn:...ges01/030a.jpg  I'll bet they're quite wrong in your imagination! What do your Clare and Henry look like? |

I don't think I could find any celeb pictures to show what I think they look like in my mind's eye, I'd have to draw it. I am very 'visual' when reading a book though, and always have the entire scene in my head. And I'm afraid not at all like the photos you posted above   I just started the second part last night (half way through). I am soenjoying it *sigh* |

What an interesting notion DM - I always have an "impression" in my head of how the characters look, but I've never actually thought of "casting" them. I'm going to give that some thought now! |

Who's not finished yet. or are we ready to go? |

It will be nice to discuss it before our minds get befuddled with seasonal thoughts. I'm ready! We could, of course, even start to talk about the structure or premise of the story, or probably many other themes, without even discussing the latter part of the book ... allowing the distracted people a bit more time to catch up. |
