  1. Yes, I've read all of her books over the years. Easy to read and I always enjoy them.
  2. I read quite a few of John Saul's books in the dim and distant past, not recently though. I've read the ones Tracey mentioned. I quite enjoyed them at the time.
  3. I'm reading it just now and just over half way through. I'm actually finding it a little bit of a plod, but not necessarily in a bad way. It's not all that easy a read, especially if you have teenage children. Quite thought provoking in its subject matter. I could have done with a bit lighter reading over the NY!
  4. Sure, I'll do my best...there's about 12 books featuring Scarpetta & co before Trace . It really is worth reading them in sequence, I got totally hooked from the start. I may even start reading them again from the beginning myself one of these days!
  5. Now she tells us! lol Make sure you keep an eye on this post.. as we read and comment, you can join in. Well I did list Predator under the most disappointing book category lol I'm a huge fan her PC's but without giving too much away I wish she'd left Scarpetta where she was. For anyone who hasn't read the books in sequence I think it would be quite difficult to get a handle on the main characters, as I mentioned earlier, they all have a lengthy history (from her first Scarpetta novel in fact). Hey you might even end up loving the book
  6. I've read all her books to date and there is a lot of history between the characters in the Scarpetta novels. I can't remember how much she goes back to 'refresh' reader's memories in Trace. Jack the Ripper was based on fact so yes totally different from her usual books. I definitely prefer her earlier Scarpetta books, I wasn't too keen on Trace and was even less keen on Predator her latest offering.
  7. I'm impressed by everyone's cooking skills. Thankfully for everyone concerned, I'm not cooking Christmas dinner, we're eating out this year
  8. 6.30am!!! Good grief, it's the one day of the year I insist on a lie in !
  9. Good idea re general section, forgot this was in reviews. *tut* newbies
  10. Glad to hear it re frogs! Do you follow any particular faith, cult (sorry if that's the wrong word!). I've never known anyone interested in witchcraft before so not sure what it involves. I wouldn't even know where to start. How did you get involved in it? Sorry for all the questions :oops:
  11. I'm pretty dumb about all that stuff, but do you incorporate it into your every day life? I'm not quite sure what it entails. I roughly know about tarot cards.
  12. Are you interested in witches Kell? (obv going by your avatar!) The book kind of centres around the Salem witch trials. Quite fantastical in parts but good.
  13. I read this book quite a while ago and I enjoyed it. I've read most of Robin Cook's books over the years although for me it was never good to read them in quick succession as I found some of them quite 'samey'. I do love a good medical thriller though. I remember reading one when I was in hospital a number of years ago.....not a good idea!
