Today I'm going to introduce you to my little Lego friend Betty.

Betty will pop up from time to time in my blog, Betty is going to help me review my books and films I put on here, as Betty is reading the same books as me and watching the same films. Betty is also into photography big time as you can see she is holding a camera. other interest  of Betty's are watching Norwich City, traveling going to the cinema and having fun.


 
 
I have also just finish another book this morning The Red House by Mark Haddon. I really enjoyed Marks other books The Curious Incident of the Dog in the Night-time, so I thought I would give this one ago. Wasn't as good as his last ones.
 
Two families. Seven days. One house. Angela and her brother Richard have spent twenty years avoiding each other. Now, after the death of their mother, they bring their families together for a holiday in a rented house on the Welsh border. Four adults and four children. Seven days of shared meals, log fires, card games and wet walks.
But in the quiet and stillness of the valley, ghosts begin to rise up. The parents Richard thought he had. The parents Angela thought she had. Past and present lovers. Friends, enemies, victims, saviours.

For me it was quite hard to follow the story line as it switches from one person to another. Glad I finished it though. I would give it 3 stars as I may read it again to try and understand it better. But won't read it for a long time.

More blogging from me and Betty in a few days!
