It was putting me to sleep last night - and it's meant to be a psychological thriller!

Suz | 4428 comments I'm really liking Deal Breaker by Harlan Coben. Myron Bolitar is quite the leading guy - sports agent ex basketballer mystery man. Seems to have it all! Glad to have found this author! Vinnies are serving up a few.

Ryan It's on my to-read-in-2015 shelf. Yet another Christmas present.


message 12731: by Sally (new)

Sally Howes | 223 comments I recently read and loved The Vanishing Witch by Karen Maitland. It is unusual and fascinating in every way, from narration to subject matter. Highly recommended for lovers of historical fiction and the feminist literary theorem of "the pit or the pedestal" (the stereotyping of women in literature as either evil or pure). 4★s.

Here is my review:

I was going to wait a week to post my review, but I figured I was close enough and that there would be a good chance of me forgetting in a week's time to post it! :)
