The night circus by Erin Morganstern. I added it to my book queue at new year but only just chose to read it. I'm really enjoying it so far.

Knockemstiff - Donald Ray Pollock. A collection of short stories. I've just read the first two and if they're anything to go by I'm going to enjoy this book immensely.

Just getting to the end of book 4 in the U.N.D.E.A.D series by Darren Humphries on my Kindle and about to start David Nobbs new book The fall and rise of Gordon Coppinger , I have been waiting a while for this from my local library so looking forward to it.

About to start Tears and Laughter: One's Man's Journey - David Griffin. A book about his journey from being a new recruit to an experienced senior police officer.

Just read, The Ice Man: Confessions of a Mafia Contract Killer. I loved this book. Absolute beast of a man but some how very intresting at the same time.

Stuart MacBride - Birthdays for the dead

Shattered by Dick Francis and I am thoroughly enjoying it.

I am not an avid reader but I am getting through this one pretty swiftly. I can't put it down

Pillars Of The Earth - Ken Follett
I've had this book on my shelf for ages, and it's been bugging me to read it. The sheer size of it did put me off, for a while, but when after the first chapter, I was hooked.
Rollicking good story telling from KF, even though I did skip the technical bits about the building of the cathedral. The goodies were goodies and the baddies were really bad, if barbarism was rife in the 12th century. All types of emotion was in the story, love, hate, and redemption.
Great read.

I'm on a bit of a short story kick at the moment so have picked up Where I'm Calling From - Raymond Carver.

Human Remains by Elizabeth Haynes. Not so sure about it- it's the first of her books I haven't carried about with me all day to snatch a read in a spare moment.

The Twelfth Department - William Ryan. Really enjoy his Korolev books.

Just finished The Sick Rose by Erin Kelly, which was very good. Her 1st novel, The Poison Tree, is highly recommended if you like a good thriller. Don't know what to start next; may go on to Play to The End, by Robert Goddard.

The Rising Dead by Devan Sagliani. There are zombies.

3rd Degree-James Patterson.
I'm struggling to get into this

Watching the Dark by Peter Robinson.

I started Arctic chill by Arnaldur Indridason but I've misplaced it. So cross. I've now started Calling out for you by Karin Fossum - I'll finish this and read the other afterwards, assuming it turns up

Betty - The Autobiography ---- Betty Driver with Daran Little

The Viceroy's Daughters: The Lives of the Curzon Sisters by Anne de Courcy

Black Swan Green - David Mitchell. It's a reread but a few years since I first read it and I'm enjoying it second time around.

Boris Johnson's Johnson's Life of London. A run through of various characters and progress from the Romans to date. The chapters on Robert Hooke (scientist who isn't as famous as he should be), Samuel Johnson and John Wilkes are particularly intriguing - am now reading about J. M. W. Turner. This book is often quite funny and reads like one eccentric writing about other eccentrics.

Jailbird. A 1979 novel by the wonderful Kurt Vonnegut.

My current audiobook is Lady Oracle by Margaret Atwood. It's one of her early novels and tells the story of Joan Foster, a Canadian writer who has recently faked her own death and who is hoping to leave her problems behind her and start a new life in Italy.

We hear about Joan's trials and tribulations growing up and in her life so far. The story is interspersed with extracts from Joan's current "Mills and Boon" type novel. It has the potential to be a bleak and depressing read, but there's are seam of dry wit running through the book which lifts the mood and has had me laughing into my headphones.

Very good so far.

Gone Girl. Really enjoying it don't want it to end . Can anybody recommend any similar books?.

Submerged - Cheryl Kaye Tardif

Just started The Vanishing Point by Val McDermid, which looks very good. An author whose books I always enjoy.
