Lilywhite Posted December 31, 2009 Author Share Posted December 31, 2009 Sleep With Me Joanna Briscoe Richard and Lelia's child is conceived in a moment of giggling chaos as they dress for a Christmas party. When they arrive, rudely late and still glowing, they barely register a slight, drab woman in the hall. Sylvie. As their baby grows, so too does the presence of that barely noticeable figure. Slowly Richard finds himself seduced by Sylvie's subtle, almost imperceptible charm. As he grows more ambivalent about the approaching birth of his child, Lelia finds herself haunted by painful secrets of her past. And Sylvie seems to be nowhere, yet everywhere. She's as invisible as she wants to be, and that is the source of her power. Beware of mice. How far can you trust even those you love? A story of compulsion, desire, darkness and betrayal, Sleep With Me moves towards a breathtaking climax. It confirms Joanna Briscoe as a major literary talent. Started: 24/12/09 Finished: 06/01/10 Rated:2/5 Comments: This book has a great plot but it just drags on and on. The beginning is great and the end is great but the 200 pages in the middle need reworking. Shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilywhite Posted January 11, 2010 Author Share Posted January 11, 2010 The Business Martina Cole Imelda Dooley is scared. Really scared. She’s played hard and fast and now she’s been caught. She’s pregnant and she’s on her own. Her father, not a man to mess with, will see that somebody pays for this. And it’s not going to be her. So Imelda Dooley tells a lie. A lie that literally causes murders. When Mary Dooley’s husband is killed in the night’s events, she knows she must graft to keep the family afloat. And she does, becoming a name in her own right. But she still has to watch her daughter’s life spiral into a vicious, hate-fuelled cycle of drugs and prostitution. Caught up in the carnage that is Imelda’s existence are Mary’s adored grandchildren, Jordanna and Kenny. Pretty little Jordanna isn’t yet three and she already knows far too much. All the little girl can do is look after her baby brother, Kenny, and try not to draw unwanted attention to herself. Set in the heart of London 's criminal world, from the tail-end of the seventies up until the present-day, THE BUSINESS is a gritty, disturbing and haunting tale of drugs, prostitution and a young girl’s fight for survival – against all the odds. Started: 11/01/10 Finished: 22/01/10 Rated: 4/5 Comments: Personally I thought Martina had been slipping of late. Her more recent books seemed to lack the punch of her earlier stuff. However, this one has comepletely changed my mind again. She is back in the swing of things. Great characters, smack bang in the middle of the criminal underworld. Nefarious dealings and crimes to make your eyes water. I love this stuff Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilywhite Posted January 23, 2010 Author Share Posted January 23, 2010 Grave Secret Charlaine Harris When she was 15, Harper Connelly was struck by a bolt of lightning, which left her with a spiderweb of red over her body, headaches, and episodes of weakness. Sometimes her right hand shakes. And she can find dead people. It's taken a while, but at last Harper's pretty happy with her life: she's making a living, using her unique talent to help people, and she's got a lover - her stepbrother Tolliver. That creeps some people out, but though they grew up together, and got each other through the real bad times - their parents' drug-use, the abuse, the disappearance of Harper's elder sister Cameron - they're not blood relatives. Then Tolliver's dad arrives on the scene, seeking forgiveness for the sins of their youth, and the police get a tip-off that after all these years, Cameron's been spotted in a mall. With all this going on Harper realises life is getting a little complicated, but she doesn't expect those complications to include Tolliver getting shot, or watching a cop die taking a bullet for her. Harper can find dead people, but now it's clear someone wants her dead . . . Started: 24/01/10 Finished: 24/01/10 Rated: 4/5 Comments: I enjoyed this book so much I finished it in one day. This series has definitely improved with each book and this one has been, by far, the very best. I've enjoyed catching up with Harper and Tolliver again (although their relationship still doesn't sit right with me). I think that they should be family or lovers, not start as one and end up as another. In no way am I being judgmental on the situation, it's purely from a story point of view. The pair work either way, I just think Harris should have picked one and stuck to her guns. Still a great book. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lilywhite Posted January 27, 2010 Author Share Posted January 27, 2010 Girl Missing Tess Gerritsen The first body is a mystery. She's young. She's beautiful. And her corpse, laid out in the office of Boston medical examiner Kat Novak, betrays no secrets - except for a matchbook clutched in one stiff hand, seven numbers scrawled inside. The next body is a warning. When a second victim is discovered, Kat begins to fear that a serial killer is stalking the streets. The police are skeptical. The mayor won't listen. And Kat's chief suspect is one of the town's most prominent citizens. The final body ...might be hers. With the death toll rising, Kat races to expose a deadly predator who is closer than she ever dreamt. And every move she makes could be her very last. Started: 25/01/10 Finished: 29/01/10 Rated:3/5 Comments: This is a good book but is nowhere near her usual standard. I understand it's her first foray into the crime world (she normally wrote romance) and it does show in some places. None the less, an enjoyable read.

Lilywhite Posted February 2, 2010 Author Share Posted February 2, 2010 Songs of the Humpback Whale Jodi Picoult Back in print by popular demand, national bestselling author Jodi Picoult's acclaimed debut novel treats fans old and new to a beautiful, poignant story of family, friendship and love. Jodi Picoult's powerful novel portrays an emotionally charged marriage that changes course in one explosive moment. For years, Jane Jones has lived in the shadow of her husband, renowned San Diego oceanographer Oliver Jones. But during an escalating argument, Jane turns to him with an alarming volatility. In anger and fear, Jane leaves with her teenage daughter, Rebecca, for a cross-country odyssey. Charted by letters from her brother Joley, they are guided to his Massachusetts apple farm, where surprising self-discoveries await. Now Oliver, an expert at tracking humpback whales across vast oceans, will search for his wife across a continent, and find a new way to see the world, his family, and himself: through her eyes. Started: 30/01/10 Finished: 11/02/10 Rated: 2.5/5 Comments: Not sure what to think of this one. It wasn't great, yet it was still quite readable. I'm pretty sure I've missed the point of it somewhere along the line because I got to the end and just kind of shrugged. I didn't quite get the point she was getting at. I wasn't a great fan of the two differing time lines. It works, but it was hard for me to follow. Not my favourite Picoult book and I don't think I'll be revisiting it.

Lilywhite Posted February 11, 2010 Author Share Posted February 11, 2010 New Moan: The First Book in the TwiShite Saga: A Parody Stephfordy Mayo 'I want to bite you, Heffa. I want to bite you very hard. I'll be gentle, I promise. If you really loved me, you'd let me.' Heffa Lump is just a typical, pale and interesting seventeen-year-old, who doubts that anyone will ever see her true beauty. But then she moves to Spatula and meets Teddy Kelledy, an impossibly gorgeous boy who eats rare meat, is super-strong and never goes out in sunlight. Could he, just maybe - be a vampire? (Hint: totally.) A tale of first love, painful longing and even more painful pointy teeth, "New Moan" is a hilarious parody of the phenomenon that is Stephenie Meyer's Twilight saga. Started: 11/02/10 Finished: 21/02/10 Rated: 3/5 Comments: This one gets a higher rating than it really deserves because it tickled me. It's not particularly well written and there's very little substance to it but it has moments of true genius throughout. (Like a character named Arpatz) Don't bother attempting this one unless you've read Twilight because most of it will be lost on you. However, if you've read Twilight and can take it when someone criticises it, then give it a go. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilywhite Posted February 22, 2010 Author Share Posted February 22, 2010 Undead And Uneasy MaryJanice Davidson Betsy Taylor, undead vampire queen, has been given a new nickname by her nearest and dearest: Bridezilla. Because whether you're alive or undead, planning weddings is a bitch. Especially when your groom thinks the whole thing is a waste of time. Betsy's also dealing with a full house: she lives with a ghost (Cathy), a werewolf (Antonia), a gay physician/human (Marc), her fiance and vampire king (Eric Sinclair), her best friend (Jessica), a recovering Fiend (Garrett). But when Sinclair disappears, Betsy begins to get seriously uneasy... Started: 22/02/10 Finished: 22/02/10 Rated: 4/5 Comments: I love these books!

Lilywhite Posted February 25, 2010 Author Share Posted February 25, 2010 Kill For Me Karen Rose The terrifying sequel to DIE FOR ME and SCREAM FOR ME, KILL FOR ME is Karen Rose's most frightening thriller to date. For years District Attorney Susannah Vartanian has refused to allow anyone close to her. Her life changed overnight when as a teenager she was brutally raped by a vicious gang of youths. Detective Luke Papadopoulus is fast approaching burn-out. As a detective working on sex-crimes against children, he will do anything to find those responsible for such evil atrocities. Monica Cassidy is terrified. Kidnapped and held in a bunker with eleven other girls, all victims of a paedophile ring started by Susannah's rapists, she barely escaped with her life when her kidnappers panicked and fled, killing five of the girls as they left. Now Monica is the only one who can identify the ring's members and they know where she is. Will Luke and Susannah be able to keep Monica safe and crack the ring before the remaining girls disappear forever? Started: 23/02/10 Finished: 09/03/10 Rated: 2/5 Comments: I'm normally a big fan of Karens but this book just bored me. I got lost in the twists and turns and only kept reading because it was the culmination of quite a long story line. It felt like she had a lot of ideas for the characters and storylines but was told she only had one book left. She could easily have made this story the side plot in two or three books. A shame but it won't put me off just yet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lilywhite Posted March 13, 2010 Author Share Posted March 13, 2010 Beautiful Dead Book 1: Jonas Eden Maguire Something strange is happening in Ellerton High. Phoenix is the fourth teenager to die within a year. His street fight stabbing follows the deaths of Jonas, Summer and Arizona in equally strange and sudden circumstances. Rumours of ghosts and strange happenings rip through the small community as it comes to terms with shock and loss. Darina, Phoenix’s grief-stricken girlfriend, is on the verge. She can’t escape her intense heartache, or the impossible apparitions of those that are meant to be dead. And all the while the sound of beating wings echo inside her head... And then one day Phoenix appears to Darina. Ecstatic to be reunited, he tells her about the Beautiful Dead. Souls in limbo, they have been chosen to return to the world to set right a wrong linked to their deaths and bring about justice. Beautiful, superhuman and powerful, they are marked by a ‘death mark’ – a small tattoo of angel’s wings. Phoenix tells her that the sound of invisible wings beating are the millions of souls in limbo, desperate to return to earth. Darina’s mission is clear: she must help Jonas, Summer, Arizona, and impossibly, her beloved Phoenix, right the wrong linked to their deaths to set them free from limbo so that they can finally rest in peace. Will love conquer death? And if it does, can Darina set it free? Started: 13/03/10 Finished: 7/03/10 Rated: 4/5 Comments: For a YA series this has great plot. I wasn't too keen on the moany main character but if I can read Twilight, I can get through this.
