Your review sounds a bit like I'm feeling with Sisters Of Mercy by Caroline Overington. Am finding it a bit of a slog at the moment.

It's sad when reading a book becomes a chore instead of a pleasure isn't it? Especially when there are still so many GOOD books out there waiting.

I've finished reading Inferno by Dan Brown which was rather disappointing I'm afraid.

It's probably not so much that it's not a well written book, but I really don't like the main character at all. It's one of my Aussie Author Challenge books, so I'll persist, but it might take me a while. I took a small comfort read foray into Hot Money by Dick Francis last night instead. Easy reading, fun characters and not too deep.

Hi everyone, I have just finished reading The Secret Life of Bees. I loved it! Sue Monk Kidd is a wonderful writer and I connect with her stories easily.
I wouldn't hesitate in recommending her books to those who enjoy a historical story about the human spirit.

Having just read "Anything You Can Do..." by Randall Garrett, I am moving on to the science fiction short story "Arm of the Law" by Harry Harrison. I have started a ReadUp for the reading if folks are likely to finish the book in the next five days. Here is the link: http://rdup.me/i2fnk1swtbuik9

I've been spending a lot of time listening to audiobooks produced by LibriVox of late. There are a dozen readers that I particularly enjoy the work of. One of those is Mark F. Smith, a chap that also does paid narration.

Finished Scarlet by Marissa Meyer. It was great fun.

This is my first Ruth Rendell. She is a clever witty writer. If I was not committed to the Chandler/ Hammett style, I would write like Ms Rendell.

I just finished Perfect by Rachel Joyce
I liked this one more than The Unlikely Pilgrimage of Harold Fry and as much as The Love Song of Miss Queenie Hennessy
review to come but definitely 5★s. Choked me up a couple of times

I have just finished rereading The Bone Season the first in what is meant to be a seven book series. It was just as good as the first time around if not better. I can't wait for the sequel (to be released in January).
What to read next?

It was a wonderful read, Michael. I thought she portrayed OCD very well. I had suspicions about Jim early on....
