[S.K.]

I'm still listening to Lora Leigh :)

[Dale]

I'm reading Absolution Creek

[Grant]

I'm almost finished with Fiasco by Imre Kertész(Nobel prize for literature winner). It's a bit of a book inside a book. Very unusual writing style but has made me laugh a few times, just due to its peculiarities. Worth a look!

[S.K.]

This book is killing me..it's twice as long as the others. I'm too far in to skip it now but...ugh

[Jen]

I am reading Lily's Journey by Tania Crosse

[Tango]

I just finished Gone Girl, loved the first half but was sadly disappointed with the ending.

I finished Akropolis by debut Aussie author Catherine McCallum last night... brilliant!

And started Thin Blood by (new to me) Aussie author Vicki Tyley .. really good so far:)

The talent of our Australian authors is outstanding!

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

I just started Fetish, my first by Tara Moss. It starts well. Wish I didn't have to work today - it is ideal weather to curl up in the warm with a good book.

I'm going to tackle Fetish next week. I love Tara Moss, and what I've read before she's just so-glossy and brilliant. Absolute killer.

Barabbas by Pär Lagerkvist
Another nod to Anthony Quinn and his many movies.

[Alik]

Reading my very first Agatha Christie "And Then There Were None".

Death in the City of Light: The Serial Killer of Nazi-Occupied Paris by David King

[Mish]

I've just finished The Light Between Oceans and I'm going to give it 3 stars. I haven't reviewed it yet because I really need to think how I felt about what had happened...my feelings seem all muddled up atm.

But I know for certain that I felt a great sympathy for the child more then anyone else in the book.

[Mish]

Oh and I'm about to start Autumn Manor by Helen Goltz

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Hope you enjoy it...I've still got MasterMind to read yet.

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

Finished Fetish and enjoyed it. I will read more of her books. Now I have the pleasure of choosing which of my August challenge books I am going to read first!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

They're worth it Phrynne:) I read her final one last year and was devastated it was her last of that series! Assassin I read them in order too, which is a change for me!! lol

I usually like to read a series in order but Fetish only cost me $7.99 at QBD so I thought it would be a good one just to try . I will search out the others now.
Just started reading Zoo for my winter challenge. The hero has just arrived in Botswana - one of my favourite places in the world!

I haven't read that one yet...another one patiently waiting on my shelves;)

I'm 50 pages into The Privileges and I am hooked. Love the way this guy writes.

Just my luck, my library doesn't have any of his other books so I'm gonna have o buy them:))

You won't be disappointed in that will you Bette;)

[Liam || Books 'n Beards]

1984! Little bit intense.

[Lit Bug (Foram)]

Aha! Although it is dated, I still like it immensely for the fact that it was written half-a-century ago so vividly

Now reading Perdido Street Station - all I can say about it is that it is WEIRD.

Well he does say he writes weird fiction.

And yeah I've never read any George Orwell before, always meant to.

I would love to read Perdido Street Station as a graphic novel. There are some images attached to reviews and they have whet my apetite.

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

Half way through Zoo and gosh it is fun! Are all James Patterson books like this? If so I have been missing out!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I haven't read that one yet Phrynne, but they're pretty fun to read, yes!!

[Kelly]

I am almost finished The Ark. I didn't really go into the book expecting much, but it has been really good. A bit of controversy in it as well.

[Donna R]

In the Country of Men by Hisham Matar

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I haven't read that one Geoff...maybe I should add it to my TBR after your comment:)

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

Finished Zoo and gave it 4 stars. Moving on now to Alias Grace

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

I've just started Deadly Tide by Aussie Sandy Curtis

[Liam || Books 'n Beards]

1984 finished! Man, I tore through that. And now I'm depressed.

[Lit Bug (Foram)]

:) I simply loved it - have you read 2BR02B by Kurt Vonnegut?

No I haven't, sounds good though.

I highly recommend The End Specialist - similar type of thing, aging is "cured", but very dark.

[Lit Bug (Foram)]

TBRed! 2BR02B is just a 12 page short story, available here for free - http://www.booksshouldbefree.com/genr...

Finished Death in the City of Light: The Serial Killer of Nazi-Occupied Paris - fascinating and really interesting read

I am about to start reading 'Divergent'
I'd like to say what it's about but I don't know. It's part of a no-synopsis challenge

[Sharon]

Currently reading Jasper Jones by Craig Silvey

I really like this one.

I'm pretty sure you will love it.

[Janis]

As a great fan of M.C Beaton (AKA Marion Chesney) I am currently working my way through her work again. I was introduced to her through my local library but love her work so much I've decided to try and buy my own copies. What I love is that pretty much all of it is on Kindle and at lovely affordable prices. So I'm not running out of bookshelf space and can read them in the dark at night. :-)

Right now I am reading Agatha Raisin and the Wellspring of death. I love a good bit of cosy crime fiction and Beaton's Agatha Raisin and hamish MacBeth are fun books of that genre to while away the hours with. I also love her Regency period books and plan on embarking on those shortly too. I just need to decide which series? Possibly the Poor Relations first?

Janis.
