Just finished The Burning Air by Erin Kelly, which I first read about on here - really enjoyed it. Less formulaic than some of the recent books I have read - I had got to a point where I had stopped reading thrillers as I was finding them all a bit - so what!

Have just started Rubbernecker by Belinda Bauer - so far, so good.

Gone Girl - Gillian Flynn and The Litigators - John Grisham

I've just finished The Racketeer by John Grisham. A little different to his normal style and very far fetched but once you get past that it's a good yarn.

I've just started reading Gone by Mo Hayder.The blurb on the back says "a particularly potent blend of terror and horror."

Finally got around to starting Wolf Hall. Not having the problems some have had with not knowing who Mantel's referring to when she says 'he' - it's usually Cromwell anyway.

Getting near the end of 'The Last 10 Seconds' by Simon Kernick, not someone i've read before and wasn't expecting a great deal to be honest but it's been a great serial killer/crime caper.

Is It Just Me? by Miranda Hart.

It's weird. Not sure what I was expecting but I definitely didn't expect conversations with her teenage self.

White Teeth by Zadia Smith

Can't say it'll be a book I'll enjoy all that much, but reading as part of the Book Club at work..

Fiction Wool by Hugh Howey
Not sure yet, having a job getting into it

Non Fiction 'The Fast Diet': The Secret of Intermittent Fasting - Lose Weight, Stay Healthy, Live Longer

This is now my Bible for life,
Eat as norm for 5 days a week, Fast for 2 (can have tiny meals, but max 500 cals these two days 600 for men
I'm dropping the lbs and have never felt so well ...
More important its a diet I can live with and stick with and does not affect family meals etc ...
Really is a health plan/ diet that works and is a joy to be on .... Love it, and it works

I can't recommend this enough .... and it costs zero to follow.

Sorry I went on a bit, But am excited about this

I've finished listening to Moon Over Soho by Ben Aaronovitch. Not quite as good as Rivers of London imo but still enjoyable and I'll read the next book.

My next audiobook is The Thirty Nine Steps by John Buchan, narrated by David Thorn. A very short book, only 4hrs 10mins.

I'm still reading the Sunne in Splendour by Sharon Kay Penman. The Wars of the Roses from the viewpoint of Richard III. It's a long book and I'm about 300 pages in. Very topical in view of the fact that the skeleton recently dug up in a car park in Leicester has been confirmed to be Richard by archaeologists today. There's a programme, Richard III: The King in the Car Park on Channel 4 this evening.

I enjoyed it on one level - really liked some of the characters, liked the storyline, enjoyed the build up.

On another, I wondered why it had to take 1300+ pages to tell the story. It became a bit of a chore to get through at times and was probably a poor choice of read in January - I should probably have saved it for the summer holidays when I can really get into a book.

And I didn't like how some of my favourite characters kept dying

Just started God's Own Country by Ross Raisin. Its his debut novel from 2008...meant to be excellent, sinister and darkly comic.

As it's set on a sheep farm in Yorkshire, is brooding and conveys the landscape and the mind of the young protagonist in an unsettling way, I should be ok with it

Just finished Pines by Blake Crouch and absolutely loved it. It's about a Secret Agent who wakes up after an accident in a remote town called Wayward Pines and has little memory of how he got there or why he's there. His memory gradually returns but he soon realises that the people of Wayward Pines are a bit odd to say the least and for some reason don't seem to want him to leave. I raced through it as I was dying to know what the heck was going on and it pretty much blew me away by the end.

Just started The Killing Hour by Lisa Gardner. 4th in the Quincy and Rainer series and enjoying it so far.

Unlike most people, I found The Midwife's Confession quite dull, but I'm giving Diane Chamberlain another go and reading The Shadow Wife. Enjoying it so far.
