I read You too Walter and I thought exactly the same. And at some points/parts of the novel, I thought he make a lot of sense.

It's a great book

I'm glad you're enjoying it as much as I did :-) It really is completely engrossing, isn't it? Very close to the quality of Wolf Hall, I thought. I especially love Danton :-)

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

I just finished Northanger Abbey by Val McDermid. I hardly ever give a book one star but I did for this one!

Oh my favourite book! Let me know how you like it Nirmal :)

[Marina]

Have just started The Light Between Oceans. Beautiful writing. Am also partway through The Girl with All the Gifts, which had a really interesting set-up. Am now up to the part where everything starts to go pear-shaped.

(Why is that an expression? things "go pear-shaped"? What's wrong with the shape of pears? They don't look particularly disastrous to me ... Language is a funny thing, isn't it?)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

LOL! They use the fruits to describe many things Marina - especially women!!

[Marina]

True, Brenda, but I can at least see the reason why a woman might be said to be "pear-shaped"! But I just started wondering as I was typing why "going pear-shaped" means "going wrong". Where do these expressions come from?? I've used it plenty of times and never thought about why it means that before.

Maybe I need more sleep ...

Haha...not necessarily wrong, just a bit out of shape. Running off course maybe? :)

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

I started Scarlet on the train today because The Daughters of Mars was too heavy to carry. Score one point to Kindle for ease of transport.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Ah definitely agree with you there Phrynne! I've read quite a few books this holiday, but no weight at all;)

I'm not sure if I would say it was darker than something like Into the Darkest Corner

People I have had a woeful day.
I have just finished reading The Retribution of Mara Dyer
Which was released earlier this week. I was so very excited, making myself finish the mammoth Outlander before allowing myself to start it, (so there would be no distractions). I loved the first two books in the series rating both 5 stars, I was impossibly happy to start the third and final book in the Mara Dyer series. People it was a farce, I cannot understand why it is so.... I hate bad reviews, I belive essentially everything is good if seen through the right eyes, that most bad reviews are just because the book was not intended for the recipient. Why did I not like this book? 3 stars feels overly generous I am sad to say. Let us never speak of this again :(

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Bad luck Dana::( That's very sad...

[Neko]

@Dana - That is no good!

Memoirs of a Geisha: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
