Found Dead souls a bit of a slog, so I'm going to take a break from rebus for a bit.

I am really enjoying rebus, thanks for convincincing me to try the books. Bought 5 mo hayder books, then I will borrow gerritsen.

Thanks.

Finished let it bleed and nearly finished the hanging garden, Then I can read the rest of the rebus novels in order.

Thanks everyone for their suggestions.

going to read the rebus set, then I'm borrowing some Tess gerritsen having read a couple in the past and liked them.

Authors on my bookshelf- quintin jardine, Michael connelly, ian rankin, stuart macbride, stephen leather, jeff lindsay, mark billingham, james patterson, colin dexter, ,john harvey, jo nesbo, steig larsson, mo hayder, john grisham,simon kernick, boris starling, conan doyle,.... Tom clancy, fred forsyth, pat robinson, colin bateman....... Feist, eddings, pratchett , jordan, anthony, tolkien, adams.

Took a two night break from rebus having finished the black book which was good. Then I started a borrowed book, m connelly, The drop which was very readable, I read it from about 5pm till 1am, then the next day 5pm till 8pm. Being single with no distractions helps. Now reading Rankins, Strip jack and the rest of the set has now arrived so I will be starting the 2nd book soon and then reading them in order.

I,m still deciding wether to wait until all 3 new books are out or wether to buy the 1st brandon one now?

I'm going to be reading Ian Rankin for a while as I have just ordered another 7 books. Finished Black and Blue gone back to strip jack as recently bought.

On the rebus front, I have read knots & crosses, mortal causes and am halfway through black and blue, I have enjoyed these so far and will be looking out for those I haven't got.

Currently reading Chasing the dime by connelly.

Just bought 9 rebus novels and a book of short stories for £10, so I'm willing to give them a go..

alex gray, Inspector lorimer. never somewhere else. I enjoyed this book , the charachters were good and so was the story. glasgow kiss, I found this one weak because it wasn't a who dunnit, it was a patterson type end. this is the killer deal with it, dissapointing. five ways to kill a man. I did enjoy this one, even with the change of location and the crowbarring in of solly brightman. stephen leather, dan spider sheperd, rough justice, unfortunately I found this to be a rewrite of Soft target with too much personal goings on in the life of spider as opposed to the investigation in the story, disappointed and Fair game, I really enjoyed this one , there more action and Less spider sorting out his life. I have just started Connelly, Haller, the fifth witness and am enjoying it so far page132/559.

I am now reading Alex Grey, Inspector Lorimer novels, which I am enjoying. I ony have 3 at the moment, over christmas I will be reading the fifth witness, haller by micheal connelly and rough justice and fair game,dan spider sheperd by stephen leather.

Does ian rankin write differently, when he's being jack harvey?

I read the first five lincoln rhyme novels and gave up. Do they get better.

I've read some gerritsen, rizzoli and isles, also la plante's red dahlia. Yes I had to look up how to spell rissoles!

No I've only seen some of the rebus tv episodes, are the books better?

I am male and I like crime and thriller fiction. I have read michael connelly,Bosch, haller, quintin jardine,Bob Skinner, marc billingham,Tom Thorne stuart macbride,Logan Macrae jeff lindsay, Dexter james patterson , cross. I like all these authors and am looking for suggestions of who to try next as I have read all these books about 4 times. Authors I have tried and not liked are stephen booth, david baldacci, jonathan kellerman. thank you.
