Definitely won't be finishing another book before the deadline, so those 2 I mentioned for the mini-challenge will fit into week 4.

35559 Book I've already started will work for mpg crime/mystery/thriller over 500 pages (557 pages). Gone
If it helps I can probably squeeze in a short book that will work for culinary mystery - Blueberries and Bereavement

No, not yet. I bought it but haven't had a chance to read it yet. I read one of his other books, The Cold Cold Ground recently which I really liked.

35559 I’m almost halfway through my current book & the previous book I finished counts as week 3 too. I’ll definitely finish my current book before deadline.

Vikki - if you can't finish before deadline that's fine, we can use it for next week."


Sorry I think I missed the deadline - I was down in Dublin today and I don't think my first attempt to update worked. It should be updated now so at least it's an early start for week 3.

35559 I haven’t been able to read much this week but I’ll finish my book The Chalk Pit later today. Will probably be close to the deadline though

I bought it recently, interested to hear what you think of it.

35559 Thanks Jill.

Sorry to hear about your cat Amanda, it's always hard losing a much loved pet. Make the most of the time you have left with your cat, I'm sure she knows how much she's loved.

Going to Prague. Looking forward to it, never been before but it looks really beautiful. Heard good reports from people who have been there.
