He sets up a whole novel around Freud's one and only visit to the US, and why he never came back! I loved it - a lot of historical fact interspersed with a completely made up mystery!

I really enjoyed this novel. Such a wonderful page turner. The atmospher was brillant and you really wanted to reach the end and it was never the case of reading it,just to finish it, it was a delight to read.

Ooh I live this guy's books, just wish he was a bit more prolific.

I envy you being at the start instead of like me waiting for the next one !

Just finished Horse Play by Jo Carnegie. It was a nice easy read with a coziness that reminded me of the horsey books I read as a teenager (without the sex though!)

Now reading Bag Of Bones by Stephen King. Totally different direction!

Finished Evelyn Waugh's The Loved One. Good but I'm a bit miffed at paying eight quid for 126 pages of very large print.

Anyway onto Albert Camus - The Plague which I picked up for a quid.

I loved the Martin Beck books, and they have stood the test of time very well indeed. I'd say my favourite is Man on the Balcony.

Dracula by Bram Stoker.

Just over half way though and so far I'm really enjoying, can't beat a bit of Gothic Horror, and this is the daddy of Gothic Horror.

The Blue Nowhere - Jeffery Deaver

[silvershock95]

'The Invention Of Everything Else'- Samantha Hunt

I'm addicted to it and can't stop reading, help! It's a sort of biography focusing on Nikola Tesla, one of the most uncredited scientists of the 1900s. I guess it means a lot to me though, considering I'm a quarter Serbian and so was he...

Elizabeth Haynes- Into the Darkest Corner

[UrMyStar]

Along Came a Spider by James Patterson. Enjoying it, first proper read for a while.

One Moment, One Morning by Sarah Rayner.

Finished 'Me Before You' and have just about finished blubbing, after 2 days! Really good book, and not the least bit 'chick-lit-y' as I feared it might be.

Am now reading something a little different, 'Taken' by Zia Marie, I just came across it on the Kindle Store and thought it sounded interesting.

It's about a 17 year old boy and his 9 year old sister who are on their way to a fair when they somehow end up in another dimension, another version of Earth that had been almost wiped out due to a disease, and anyone that finds themselves in this parallel universe is expected to stay and help repopulate.

It's YA Dystopian Fiction, which is a genre I'm loving at the moment and part of a Trilogy, and I'm really enjoying it so far.

I still can't get Louisa & Will out my head!

I'm about to start Flu by Wayne Simmons. Its an Irish zombie story.

did anyone read the book ROSES by Leila Meachan, im trying to find authors that have the same type of books. any ideas?

[spiney2]

the Steve Jobs bio, Walter Issacson.

wot a nasty guy! Fascinating stuff.

It's not made clear exactly why Apple was so successful! The Apple 2 - which I remember - took off because it had colour & floppy drive, thanks to Woz's very clever circuitry. In turn, that's why killer ap VIsicalc was originally for Apple2, cos of the colour & drive ....

Mons Kallentoft- Midwinter Sacrafice

The Talbot Odyssey - Nelson DeMille

[Its-Gillian]

Scream for me by karen rose! love this author and this series of books have all been great reads.

[Terrence Chant]

It Had To Be You - David Nobbs

[Bluemotel]

"Trust No One" by Alex Walters and "Tony and Susan" by Austin Wright. The former was a quick, pacey read. The latter has sat on my Kindle for a while, so far looking good - has an interesting structure which people raved about, to me, for so long, in the end I gave in !!

[geniejean]

The Skin Gods - Richard Montanari, (having enjoyed his "The Rosary Girls"), very good & hard to put down

[seansnotmyname@]

Spiral by Koji Suzuki.
