As those of you who got my recommendation will already know, I really loved Touch by Claire North. 5★s.
I wondered if this could be as good as The First Fifteen Lives of Harry August: it is!

[Emily]

Reading Last Christmas and enjoying it, though I got confused at first with the jumping between timelines. It's a great escape from a very busy time of life at the moment!

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Finished Out of the Mists: The Hidden History of Elizabeth Jessie Hickman by Di Moore extremely interesting 4★s

I'm really enjoying it so far Jo, unlikable characters though, that's for sure.

Will you see the movie Mish (or have you already)? I saw the movie first and it's been on my list for sooo long. I think I need to bump it up :)

Yes Saving Wishes was a real surprise and not at all what I expected Brenda.
Runaway Lies by Shannon Curtis has started off really well too...a bit of intrigue ;)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Yes I'm keen to read that one Jools! Did you see I just posted Secrets Of Whitewater Creek by Sarah Barrie is the kindle daily deal today? Very inexpensive:)

No haven't seen it but would love too. When I closed the book last night, it was difficult to let them go...so seeing them in the movie would be lovely

Great review Brenda. Looking forward to reading this one :)

Thanks Sharon! It was a really enjoyable read:)

Oh Mish, I'm glad you liked it too, I loved it!

[Marianne]

and I can recommend the movie! I borrowed it from the library....

[Mish]

Marianne wrote: "and I can recommend the movie! I borrowed it from the library...."

Oh I am definitely going to watch it Marianne. I want to see Anne Hathaway play Emma. I had a clear picture of her face while I was reading it. And the way he described her features in the book was Anne Hathaway all over. :)

Not sure about Dexter, he was blond in the book.

Oh well, I will just have to see it :)

[Marianne]

I just finished Die Again by Tess Gerritsen, another 5 ★ read. How does she do it? I was a little worried that her sending Jane to Africa would be silly like what James Patterson did to Alex Cross in Cross Country, but I should have trusted Tess to make it believable and interesting.

I saw the movie before reading the book (and a handful of times since then), and for me there can be no other Dexter than Jim Sturgess. Perfect. Oh, and he ages very well in the film, too...

I guess I like less comfortable reads these days.

Did you never read that at school?

You should try Ordinary Grace by this author. Wonderful, wonderful story.

Thanks Bette. I thought I already had that on my TBR. It appears not. I have added it now. Thanks for the explanation about the Anne Tyler.

I have this one to read - someone told me it was written back to front which was what threw her.

No I missed out reading it at school. Such a shame! I am loving this now and my husband tells me there is a movie version with Leonard Nimoy. Must hunt that one down :)
