I have read a loads this year, about 15, which for me is great. I have just finished 'A place called here' by Ceceila Ahern and am re-reading 'Stranger with my face' by Lois Duncan, which I read as a teenager! But by far the best book this year I've read is 'Where rainbows end' also by Cecelia Ahern.
What do you think is the best book you've ever read?

I mean get to a deeper level of understanding. Preferably where sample passages are given and the reader is taught how to interpret them.
My staple reading for years has been mainly non-fiction. Now I want to explore fiction further.

In the book Medea is the hero, which is crazy because most Greek heroes were male, but Medea is a barbarian. What would you say about her actions in terms of her gender, and the Greek attitude towards non-Greeks?

I got the part of Molly, Who is that? Is that a good part? Does she have a lot of lines?
My director said I got the part because I am very short, skinny, and petite, and because I am great for that part, I have the voice and the acting ability. What did he mean by that?
