I am now reading "Hour Game" by David Baldacci. So far I am not too impressed the story line just seems to drag along.

[Rachel]

I'm really anxious to read this one with it being a prequel.

[Bill]

I just finished Death in Paradise, a Henrie O mystery, which I didn't enjoy. I'm about half way through Dead Souls, an Inspector Rebus mystery, enjoying very much. I'm about to start Revelation, a Matthew Shardlake historical mystery.

[Diane S ☔]

Reading The Lost Girls of Rome , this authors last book was one of my five star reads last year.

[Jennifer]

I just read a new-to-me mystery author, G . M. Ford --Thicker Than Water which I raced through in about a day and a half. Definitely read more of this series.

Oh, Leo Waterman is one of my favorites and I'll admit a bias for the setting. It's worth going back to the beginning of the series with
Who In Hell Is Wanda Fuca?.

Ford also has a stand-alone or twain and another series that's a bit darker than Leo Waterman, but with the same sense of humor and place, starring Frank Corso. It starts with Fury.

[Lance]

Just finished Hot Art: Chasing Thieves and Detectives Through the Secret World of Stolen Art by Joshua Knelman. Snappy writing and a cast of interviewees from both sides of the law make art theft come alive. 4.5 stars.



Now reading and .

I had to add this to my list. Did you read the three before it?

[Susanna - Censored by GoodReads]

Just finished The Ionia Sanction; I had much fun with this historical.

Hi,

My second book in a row buy this author after his latest book Payback.

This on reading my research on this author was the book that was his first international bestseller, the top selling book in the UK in 2007, and added him to the list of top selling crime mystery writers.

This is a fantastic book, fast paced, action packed, shocks all the way through, twists and turns, with each chapter like an episode of 24 !!

Like another of my favourite British authors S J Bolton brings another ingredient to their books with using the same character in more than one book, maybe a small role in one book, then the main role in another book. Done so well by SJ Bolton.

I highly recommend this more just a notch above Payback, but I am now trying to find all his books.

I really could not put this book down !!

What a treat this year finding SJ Bolton, Allan Folsom and Simon Kernick !!

regards

Sean

I'm reading Lucky Bastard by Deborah Coonts, a Lucky O'Toole mystery. This is kind of a light cozyish mystery set in a casino in Las Vegas.

[Carla]

Some great suggestions in this thread. I'm a bit of a 'dipper' – in and out of several books. Recent promising reads are


I also ran a quick poll to find out what my twitter followers enjoyed most in this genre in 2013. You can read their top recommendations here – it's a good list! http://ellmanbooks.com/bestdarkfictio....

Does anyone else 'dip' or is it bad practice?!!

Thanks Marian. Just added this to my reading list. Looks excellent. Love this Japanese author. If you haven't already read it or seen the (superb) film, I think you might really enjoy

Very tense and psychological!

Evil At Heart sounds really good! Nice to see some plain old horror on here (I'm guessing, with such an evil title!!)

[Carla]

Great title for a book – sounds intriguing and scary which is, in my view, a very good combination!

I agree Amaya. Let the Right One In is a good movie (both the original Swedish film and the American remake)

[Marian]

Good Morning Ladies!
Yes,we have the movie "Let the right one" and I loved it!I must get that book.Thanks for reminding me.Im almost finished my book "OUT" and its fantastic!

[Carla]

So glad you already saw this. It was great!

[Carla]

Morning Marian!

No problem, happy to help. It wasn't in the list I posted, but should have been! I thought the children in the film were superb actors, too. I'm always amazed at their performances, like the boy in the Sixth Sense .... wow.

[Marian]

In your opinon,is the book better than the movie?Usually books are:)

[Carla]

Morning Marian!

No problem, glad to help out. I thought the children in the film (I saw the Swedish one with subtitles) were amazing. I find their acting just incredible for such youngsters. Remember the boy in Sixth Sense? Thought he was superb!

(Sorry if you get two replies by the way – my first one isn't showing up!)

[Marian]

I must get this book..I must get this book...I must get this book...:)))Maybe if I write this enough times I will remember..lol!We have I believe the Swedish version of the movie and your right,the kids acting was awesome.

[Sean]

Hi Amaya,


It does look like your reading list is growing, I seem to have a collection of books and authors still to catch up on.

regards

And Yes highly recommend Simon Kernick !

[Cathie]

Reading Risk by Patricia Cornwell. So far, it's okay.

[Jojo]

reading so many books right now lol i just started and i been reading: yes i know alot of books but i like to read different books

[Marian]

Just finished Out

I just put my review up on this book..5/5

[Jennifer]

Finished an oldie but a goodie today: And Be a Villain . Also read a meh short story by an author I usually like -- Recalculating. The male character in that story needed to be snapped in half like a glow stick. Just sayin.

[Donna, Co-Moderator]

Just started Rain Gods by James Lee Burke. I really like his Robicheaux novels so I thought I would try one of his other series. So far so good.

[Sofia]

Currently reading and - enjoying them both!

[Natalie]

Weekend at home with: Good book, intelligent...I liked much more the biographical letters of the victims.

[Barbara]

I love Rex Stout's detective Nero Wolfe (and Archie too of course)!

[Susanna - Censored by GoodReads]

The Nero Wolfes are definitely comfort reads for me.

[GeneralTHC]

Just finished this morning. I read along with audiobook all the way through it. It was superb. Also, the narrator did a really nice job with the audiobook. I totally recommend it.

I'm about to finish it, it's been great so far, I hope the ending doesn't disappoint

[Gail]

I am almost done with Skeleton's Key by Stacy Green. Second book in the Delta Crossroads series. The first one is Tin God. Both are filled with lots of twists and turns and will have you guessing until the end of the book.

[Aiesha]

I am currently reading Fractured and No Second Chance . I am LOVING both of these! These 2 authors are towards the top of my all time favorite authors list and they are not disappointing with these books!

After I am done with those, I will be giving one more Patterson book a try, Honeymoon (only because I've heard these are good) and also the next installment of the Harry Bosch series, A Darkness More Than Night , which I've not read in a while.

So much good reading to do & so little time!!! Who invented an 8 hour work day anyways?! :)

[Marian]

I am reading at the moment

[Simon]

I've just finished - an action packed crime thriller with a feisty, resourceful heroine.
