Just finished reading One Day by David Nicholls. Everyone's been raving about it so I finally succumbed and was completely sucked into their world and by the end I was in tears. Wonderful novel.

![]() I'm still ploughing my way through Jeffrey Deaver's The Empty Chair and I'm finding it hard work to be honest. All of his other books I've read I've been hooked and really enjoyed them but this one hasn't grabbed me at all but I'm determined to finish it. |

Tess Gerritsen's 'The Bone Garden', it's been quite good, if a bit gruesome but then it is a forensic thriller, not surprising!

Don't Look Back, by Karin Fossum. Norwegian detective story. My first of hers, but she has a good reputation so I expect there will be more.

My Race Against Me by Dwain Chambers.
It's an autobiography by Dwain Chambers: I was given it a couple of years ago as a present & have only just got round to reading it. It's a good read thus far & very illuminating. Dwain really highlights the hypocrisy of the Atheltics authorities really well. |

Just finished Simon Scarrow's - Centurian. I love his books, just straight forward adventure's in the time of the Roman empire.
This one was as good as the rest in the series. Now reading Jacqueline Yallops- OBEDIENCE it has yet to be released , won it in a competition on waterstones site and the deal is that you have to write a review once you have read it. So far its very good and engaging..its about a convent in rural France, home now to only three aging nuns..they are being forced to leave, as their lives unravel, we learn about their pasts and actions during the second world war. |

finished Charles Dickens's "Bleak House". A wealth of colourful characters and a very flimsy plot .. par for the course for Charlie.

Finished Dominic Sandbrook's "White Heat". Social History at its very best. The 60s condensed in one well researched volume.

Secrets She Left Behind - Diane Chamberlain
Got to the end of After The Storm by the same other (on Kindle) to be told there was a sequel - downloaded and reading within a minute. Think this Kindle lark is going to cost me a fortune!!! (love it really tho )
