    JackM Science Fiction 2013

    Just needed to save this somewhere

    @Jm9Jack

    All the nations in the UK should now draw up an agreement on what powers All the separate countries should have within the UK. English MP'S vote on English laws etc. We need an English assembly, Welsh and Scottish people should be campaigning for England to have separate powers.

    When England is talked about, It Always gets split into Regions.

    Help England to get it's own devolved powers, then by a process of elimination everyone else would have theirs.

    True Colours - Stephen leather 17th - 27th September

     

    I needed some light relief and Liam and Katra aren't featured to any extent, so I've got through this quite fast.

    I've enjoyed this so far and can see a twist coming,but did leather write it in or not?

     

    Quite good, I enjoyed it more than the Lackberg.

    The Lost Boy - Camilla Lackberg

     

    I read a couple of the reviews on goodreads and yes,

    this is nothing spectacular and gets quite silly towards the end with  sudden finds of evidence by people forgetting they picked them up and other convoluted reasons for hiding the truth.

     

     

    Disappointing

    Went home to browse his shelves, Of his most recent reads dex definitely decided that he could do without His two jack Paris novels, He paused by his hakan nesser books and thought maybe he could just bear to part with these. A lot of other books, he thought were disappointing happened to be part of large sets, he was loathe to part with. He did have some Michael dibdin, which he started but put down.

    Anyway dex dejectedly dismantled his bookshelf after managing to pick some terribly tiresome tomes, he could pass of as rip-roaring reads, (Oh yes, They'll be ripping them up, roaring how bad they are and I'll be Quid's in)...

    I shall have to get itsme and me out of this terrible situation, so thinking on his feet dex punched itsme in the face and concocted a wild tale of a poor innocent yokel attacked in the street by an itinerant Londoner. Officer, We'd just left the club and this bloke came out of nowhere and punched my mate in the face. It happened so quickly, I couldn't help it ERM him. I think he needs to see a doctor, could you call us a taxi...

    I know I've said it before, but third person or as Simon Kernick pointed out to me First person with Named characters. E.g. Severed by Simon Kernick.

     

    'You wake up in a strange room on a bed covered in blood.

    You have no idea how you got there.

    Beside you is a dead girl. Your girlfriend.

    The phone rings , and a voice tells you to press play on the rooms dvd.'

     

    There's enough mentions of who's doing things for me not to lose track.

     

    I hate 'I' Books, any suggestions of people who write 'Bob' books appreciated.
