Last night I finished Careful, he might hear you, but Sumner Locke Elliott.
Not a bad book when you get used to the switching of perspectives and the flashbacks that get inserted into the text with no breaks which makes it a little confusing.
I liked the descriptions of Sydney, being able to picture a lot of the places talked about. At one point they're going to a cemetery on the "electric train". I thought it would have been Rookwood, but then there was a description of looking down at the river and seeing the jellyfish, and I'm like "hey that's the George's River, they're going to Woronora cemetery!" .. and of course I was right. I used to catch the train over that river and see the jellyfish (different bridge though - the old bridge described in the book is now a pedestrian bridge). And they went past the Como hotel too (although didn't mention it by name).
Will have to watch the movie again some time (I think I might have seen it when I was much younger).
I thought this might have been a Bookcrossing book (it was in that pile), but no number on it. Maybe I should register it. And read all the other bookcrossing books I have ..
