Noticed you liked Clockwork Orange, and I 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. Thought you might like my book since it's also about a group of violent kids (and also a bit dark). I could e-mail you the novel in an e-book format if you'd like (I'm out of physical copies at the moment). Let me know if you're interested. Here's a link to a summary (and a sample chapter) in case you'd like to read more about the book before you commit:

Thanks,

Soffitta-I am extremely jealous of your living in Portugal! Is that a permanent move? If i'm not too nosy, where in Portugal are you living. My husband's family is from the Azores, and we were lucky enough to be able to visit the mainland in the 80's. My daughter spent her honeymoon there 3 years ago, and is aching to return. I have a 'things Portuguese' category on my 999 challege (link:bookshttp://www.librarything.com/t... -msg 12. If you have any suggestions for others, I'm always open to suggestions. I'd like to mark you as a friend. Your challenge sounds very interesting, and I'm curious to see your comments on some of those
