The Moonstone by Wilkie Collins. Been meaning to read it for a while - an early example of a detective novel.

Rebecca Whitney - The liar's chair

Brunel - The Man Who Built The World by Steven Brindle

Since 'Midwinter of the Spirit' from the book by Phil Rickman was on TV I'm working my way through his books which are very good. At the moment I'm reading the Magus of Hay.

The book before this, which I found mostly unreadable, was Ulysses by James Joyce - I had to watch some of it on You tube to get the gist. I think it is a very clever book and it must have caused a scandal when it was first published and I understand it's 'stream of consciousness' stuff - but still you have to be able to read it. I did enjoy Molly Bloom's pages at the end though.

I'm about to start Mother of Eden by Chris Beckett.
It's the follow up to Dark Eden and begins several generations further into the future. Eden is a distant planet peopled by the descendants of two astronauts whose spacecraft crashed there. At the time of the first book the inhabitants numbered hundreds, now there are thousands. A new world is being built on a planet that has no light from any sun. Heat, light and life come from geo-thermal energy within the planet.

Lamentation by C.J. Sansom

Alone in Berlin - Hans Fallada
Michelangelo: His Epic Life. - Martin Gayford
Sophie Scoll and the White Rose - Annette Dumbach

Mr Mercedes - Stephen King.

Man on Fire by A.J. Quinnell

The Moon is a harsh mistress - Robert A Heinlein

the trouble with goats and sheep by Joanna Cannon. great title and the story is decent so far.

You should check out Dan Simmons - Drood, it's a fictionalised account of Wilkie Collins friendship with Charles Dickens....but with a 'twist'.

Mr Unbelievable by Chris Kamara

Memoirs of the Sky football pundit

1927 by Bill Bryson.

Susan Wilkins -The Mourner

After Anna - Alex Lake - it's got very mixed reviews so I'm not sure how much I'm going to enjoy it but it was recommended by a colleague so I'm giving it a try.....

I just finished Disclaimer by Renee Knight, slow meandering start and doesn't pick up the pace for about 100 pages but then starts motoring on quite well - very much enjoyed.

Now started Elizabeth Is Missing

I read the taster first chapter before Christmas and thought it sounded very promising. I've just bought the audiobook, it's going to be my next listen.

Villette - Charlotte Bronte

I tried to read Ulysses many years ago, but gave up quite quickly.

I'm currently reading Sophie Kinsella's Shopaholic To The Rescue. The latest book in the Shopaholic series of books.

I've read this too!

Black Coffee by Agatha Christie adapted by Charles Osborne (Poirot)

High tide by Veronica Henry

Moriarty by Anthony Horowitz

What did you think of it? I am about 1/3 through already, it's certainly a quick read. I like it, but I don't love it - I don't have much sympathy for the Anna's mum (at the moment)
