I do read very fast, ask me to remember the characters' names though and I am stumped!!! You have made me smile Wendy Holden Azur Like it, good fun Patricia Cornwell The Front, no Scarpetta who I don't like any more and better

Paul Magrs Never the Bride, absolutely ace, great fun and very clever!

Celia Brayfield Mr Fabulous and Friends, good fun chicklit for grown ups!

Sadomasochism for Accountant, very mad and funny Guernsey Literary and Potato Peel Pie Society ABSOLUTELY ACE, a quick but fabulous read

I think this series is getting better do you?

Suffer the Children - Adam Creed Librarything review which I enjoyed, quite gritty police story and a horrible theme but I liked the characters and would be interested in seeing how they develop. A bit like Messiah by Boris Starling for me.

I think I will read more McGee. Westminster was good, I think this series is improving

Yes in fact I think its getting better, Cross Bones was the worst and they have just got better for me On holiday I read: Sarah Rayne Tower of Silence - spooky and clever will read more Karin Slaughter Martin Misunderstood - very clever Lee Weeks The Trophy Taker - thriller about a serial killer, again first in a series and would read more Lady's Night at Finbar's Hotel - lots of different female Irish authors writing different stories about the same hotel, very clever and well crafted Stuart Pawson The Mushroom Man - second in a series I read the first a few weeks ago, really liked it, love the characters Lloyd Jones The Book of Fame - by the author of Mr Pip, about the All Black Rugby Tour in 1905, beautifully written, poetic at times and about RUGBY! Very special but glad I read it when I had time to appreciate it! James McGee The Ratcatcher - I am a history teacher, my Year 8s (12-13 year olds) are doing a project about horrid jobs (factories in the 19th century) and I told them I would read this to find out what it was like to be a ratcatcher, but it was about the Bow Street Runners so no good, but liked the story, sort of Sharpe (on the telly) but after he'd finished. Will find out more probably Helen Garner The Spare Room 3 in a 3 for 2 in Kendal Waterstones - very interesting Australian take on terminal illness woman lets her old old friend stay in her house while taking an alternative cure for cancer, very sharp view of what it could have been like, not noble or kind just them falling out and feeling angry, refreshing somehow. Susanna Gregory The Westminster Poisoner - Thomas Chaloner number 3. I like this series about a Restoration law keeper, will read more! I like holidays and I bought loads more!

Birdsong Sebastian Faulks, ace ace ace. Her Royal Spyness Rhys Bowen, good fun!

Finished Devil Bones Let the Northern Lights Erase your name Vendala Vida - ace, fast moving story of family with a clear plot and brilliant characters.

I had never thought about what it would be like not to be able to read, the thought of reading and rereading the Bible was quite thought provoking, then it was wonderful that the books were opening their minds but suddenly it wasn't and did they really need to have their ancient way of life 'spoilt' by books or was it that it was the wrong sort of books and the people who ran the book mobile were just misguided rather than cruel. I am off to your thread to get people to join the book ring as it really made me think!

The other Susanna Gregory series about Thomas Challoner in the Restoration are great and I love Ariana Franklin Mistress of the Art of Death is the first, then Death Maze.

I loved the Camel Book Mobile. Alex Kava Exposed great thriller Kathy Reichs Devil Bones. Good start!

Finally finished, good story and I do like the main character but far too long and involved. Although less confusing than earlier ones (maybe because I read it slowly) The Camel Bookmobile Masha Hamilton. Ace so far

I loved this but cannot get hold of the second book for anything other than money!! (no library or swaps)

Susanna Gregory, The Devil's Disciples - am determined to read this slowly so I get it!

Stuart Pawson, Picasso Scam, really easy police crime, engaging characters and a believable plot.

Hey ho, I tried!

James Long - Ferney. Great story but so well written it takes ages! Very clever idea about two people who meet at different times and the effects this has. Trying not to give anything away!

If its a self help book any advice gratefully received!

Was slow to start and middle and end yes!

Dan Waddell The Blood Detective, thriller written by the consultant on Who do you think you are. Family historian stops murder, great history rocks! Crossed Wires Rosie Thornton, lovely story, great characters, a one sitter for me.

Karen Maitland, Company of Liars - story of a group of travellers during the Black Death, very clever and well written with a bit of spookiness!
