Was wondering if you'd be interested in reviewing my new novel and posting your comments here as well as a few other book-related sites. Saw you liked Butcher Boy, and I thought you might like my novel since it's also about a disturbed adolescent and a bit dark. I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like. Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary in case you're interested:

My lovely volumes and I thank you for the compliment!
I've been horribly busy and as a result, too exhausted for more
than having a nice meal and falling into bed with a book. I'm very
behind on all things Virago and LT! A warm welcome; however, to our wonderful VMC group and
I look forward to catching up!!
Kind regards,
Cate

I also see we share some literary interests including VWoolf; if you live in the metro area you may be intersted in an annual writers fest we organise to be held first weekend in May. There is more on www.willylitfest.org.au.
Kate Holden is one of our guests and I must say her book and its subject was not something I am usually drawn to but she spoke at a State Library summer reading series and was so engrossing and inspiring I had to buy her memoir and found it thoroughly engrossing although I am a bit squeamish and found myself gasping at the explicitness of some scenes. Hope you write back.
