Just started 'Tuscan Rose' by Belinda Alexandra.

Last week it was 'Iris & Ruby' by Rosie Thomas and have another one by this author lined up - 'The Potter's House'.

Currently reading Abiding Evil by Alison Buck. Very good spooky, atmospheric thriller, would probably be a good book to save for a dark winters night with the wind howling outside whilst snuggled under a duvet!

The twist was indeed very clever! I shall be looking out for his books at the library this week!

I read that earlier in the year I loved it and it was so cheap in the kindle store for quite a big book.

Currently reading 11/22/63 about 200 pages in liking it so far although I've really got to stop reading Stephen King I find his books really hard to put down and I've got an essay that needs writing.

Just bought the new Skulduggery Pleasant book Kingdom of the wicked,I know its a tween book,and I'm a grown woman,but Skulduggery is my guilty pleasure!!

Halfway through Too Close to Home by Linwood Barclay. Would definitey recommend it.

I am struggling with Sophie's World - I just cannot seem to get into it, plus I am reading a natal hynotherapy book and have just opened Bill Bryson's "A Short History of Nearly Everything" again (of of my all time fave books!!)

Just finished Blind Faith by Ben Elton.

Now reading The Borrowers Omnibus - Mary Norton. It has been on my bookshelf unread for about 20 years, only just got round to it!

I have just read The Kingmakers Daughter by Philippa Gregory and enjoyed every page!

I challenged myself to read all the Alex Cross novels, and I'm on the penultimate one! It's taken me about 2 and a half months so far which I reckon is pretty good going seeing as there's 18 of them!

The first couple I thought were not very well written at all, and sometimes it's irritating when Patterson doesn't let you figure out who the killer is - he just introduces somebody that you've never heard of. Also Cross doesn't seem to be that good a detective to me, he seems to get lucky more often than not!

But I like them in my own way but will be glad when i've finished the series and can start something new. Probably a change of genre, I've had enough of guts and gore for a while!

Biog about Charles Dickens by Claire Tomlin. Very interesting. Especially after the huge ressurgence in interest.

I've just bought The Fellowship of the Ring. I was going to get all three parts of the trilogy in a gift pack but decided to hold off in case I don't like the first one!

I'm so glad I clicked on this thread, I've been looking for something good to read. I'm off to the Kindle store to download this one

Craig Robertson- Snapshot

"Hate- My Life In The British Far Right" by Matthew Collins.

Berlin, The Downfall 1945 by Anthony Beevor, and Back to Sanity by Steve Taylor.

Hope you enjoy it! I was up til 2am this morning as I couldn't put it down and wanted to see what happened at the end. I thought it was an excellent read and very good value as well.

Generosity by Richard Powers

Birthdays for the dead-Stuart Macbride,seems ok so far,although not finding it as easy to get into as the Logan Mcrae series.
I finished Kingdom of the wicked by Derek Landy yesterday,fantastic as always!

Ooh I think I'm following him on Twitter. Might read that at some point.

I'm currently reading an apocalyptic novel - Last Light by Alex Scarrow . I'm not very far into it but the premise is fascinating and I like that the chapters are nice and short!

The Wrath of Angels - John Connolly. Absolutely adore his novels. Charlie Parker is perhaps (for me) one of the best fictional characters ever created.

Currently reading Ash by James Herbert, the third part of the Ash trilogy. So far very good, it's obvious something creepy is going on, but as to what. No idea.
After that it's the final have to, reread of the Wheel of Time. In readiness for the final book in January. In between will be Nordic crime novels.

I found some old childhood books in my parents' attic and am currently re reading stories about aspirational ballerinas and girls with ponies. Aah, it really takes me back.

Now on to the second book ' Moon Over Soho'.
