  1. Aw fanks! But I think I have them all except Lothaire which is out next year. Now if you had a spare copy of Lothaire, I'd be very interested! Looking forward to hearing what you think of this, I've recently finished The Killing Place and really enjoyed it and definitely want The Silent Girl
  2. I've been reading the Kresley Cole Immortals series and am up to Demon From The Dark at the min.
  3. Great review pickle! Girl you are a reading machine! I really have to update my list, although I think it's only by about 8, not near 28 like yourself!
  4. Can't wait to see what you think of Dark Lover, hope you like it! Looking forward to seeing what you think of The Swan Thieves. Since we both liked The Historian so much, it will be interesting to see how this one goes I can't actually remember the last book I posted about in here, it must be a while since I was on here Now though, I'm reading the second book in a series I've started by Kresley Cole called No Rest For The Wicked, and enjoying it very much
  5. I finished 'Blood Bound' by Patricia Briggs and have moved straight on to 'Iron Kissed' by the same author
  6. Wow! Fantastic review of Prophecy chesil! I'm so glad you liked it so much, you were one of the first people who I thought would enjoy this series. I hope you enjoy the rest of the series just as much
  7. Phew! Glad to hear it I finished Moon Called then moved on to Blood Bound by Patricia Briggs and am thoroughly enjoying them too (thanks, Chesil and pickle!) Dontcha just love BCF recommendations
  8. I did enjoy it, although it took me ages to read. It didn't grab me as much as say 'Cause For Alarm' did
  9. Oh I hope it comes back for you soon I've finished Blood Vines by Erica SPindler and have started the first of Patricia Briggs' werewolf books
  10. I now have a copy of this, thanks to a swap from pickle. It is firmly placed on my TBR list, sounds very interesting!
  11. I haven't actually done much reading lately, someone (I will mention no names, you know who you are ) has gotten me addicted to Sims Social on Facebook - not sure why I'm actually addicted, I can't get on half the time! I have had some book activity today though, I received Forever by Maggie Stiefvater in the post from Chaliepud, as a swap for Dark Lover & Lover Eternal by J R Ward. This book swap lark is pretty good!
  12. The Killing Place by Tess Gerritsen Synopsis He watches. Something terrible has happened in the snowbound village of Kingdom Come, Wyoming. Twelve eerily identical houses stand dark and abandoned. The people who lived in them appear to have vanished, seemingly into thin air. He waits. Maura Isles is driving through the area with a group of friends when they find themselves trapped in a snowstorm. They stumble into the abandoned village to take shelter. But their nightmare has only just begun. They Disappear. Days later, Jane Rizzoli flies to Wyoming to search for her missing friend. A crashed vehicle has been found with four badly burned bodies still inside. Can one of the corpses be Maura's? Jane's hunt for the truth leads her to Kingdom Come. Where the person who was watching Maura now lies waiting for her ... The continuation of the Rizzoli/Isles series sees Tess bring the books back on form. In this installment the plot moved along swiftly ending in a cracking twist which I didn't see coming. Throughout the story the author kept the tension level high, while conveying the desperation and emotions from the characters brilliantly. A real page turner which I couldn't put down, especially during the second half. If you've enjoyed the rest of this series, this one will not disappoint. If you haven't read this series and are a fan of crime thrillers, I recommend you do! 9/10
  13. That just tells me that it must have been good right? That's kinda the testament to a good read, if it stays with you for a while, it must have made an impression Good stuff, it's def going on my wishlist.
  14. I've only read 3 chapters so it's early days yet, Cause For Alarm has been my favourite so far along with In Silence, which reminded me of Karin Slaughter books.
  15. I bought a load of Kim Harrison books the other day in The Works - 3 for a fiver, I'm missing no 2 though and don't want to start them until I have it. They sound a bit hit and miss from your review but I'm sure I'll read them anyway White Cat sounds intriguing, something similar to what I've been reading, but in a different way ...more to add to my wishlist, strike one more for you Claire!
  16. It's the most I've read in a year so far, I'm a happy bunny! Yeah, I finished it yesterday. I so want to get The Silent Girl too, but am gonna wait for it on paperback to match the rest of the series Push that button hun, you know you want to Besides, you can never read too much! I'm reading Blood Vines by Erica Spindler, have you read any by her?
  17. Read 2 chapters today of Blood Vines by Erica Spindler
  18. Bran Flakes with granulated sweetner and semi-skimmed milk. Strong coffee. Every day. Without fail ... oh wait, sometimes I spash out and have a small banana in my bran flakes. I'm such a party animal me
  19. Oh my, these sound interesting! I'll keep an eye out for your book blog update ... and there was me thinking I was doing well striking 7 books off my wishlist ... I really should know better by now
  20. I thought you had read Patricia Briggs, in fact it was both you and pickle I thought of when buying them. Oh well, I'll shall make sure and let you know what I think, especially if they're good Shame you don't like crime books, you're missing out on some cracking reads
  21. I was at the checkout of The Works, getting art stuff for my daughter, when I spied these under a table at the bottom of a huge pile. I had to hold up the queue while I got the shop asstant to climb under the table and rescue them for me, 3 for a fiver! Of course when we were leaving I spied the Kim Harrison ones too and had to go back for them Pah! I know you have, so has Chesil. Don't you worry, I haven't done my Tess Gerritsen review yet *rubs hands evily*
  22. Have you thought of downloading the free kindle app to your pc? You can do so from Amazon Then I think you can transfer all the books you buy, from your pc onto your new kindle when you get one ( I would just check on that). I have just added 7 new titles on to my TBR pile by Patricia Briggs and Kim Harrison - they're listed on Charm's Choices
  23. I accidently .... *ahem* ... added 7 more books to my TBR pile Patricia Briggs - Moon Called Patricia Briggs - Blood Bound Patricia Briggs - Iron Kissed Kim Harrison - Dead Witch Walking Kim Harrison - Every Which Way But Dead Kim Harrison - A Fistful of Charms Kim Harrison - Where Demons Dare Now how did that happen I wonder?!
  24. The Bone Collector is a great introduction to Deaver, hope you enjoy it Knox
