Personally I don't think it's anything like Gone Girl which I didn't really enjoy:)

I am reading Forsaken as my reviewer reading and reading An Astronaut's Guide to Life on Earth for the third time, because I love space and Chris Hadfield is really super cool :)

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

It was excellent Merryn! So worth the read:)

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

Just finished "Riverboat Point" by Tricia Stringer. Bit slow to get going, interesting setting.

It's so good Michael. I'm surprised that I'm reacting to it quite strongly. If it continues at this level till the end, I'd be giving it 5 stars. :)

I have just started Landline by Rainbow Rowell. Interesting so far :)

[MaryG2E]

Initially I picked up this book for the April Challenge - Historical Fiction, but soon realised that it is really a piece of contemporary fiction (though it refers often to the past.) Once I'd finished my challenge reads, I was keen to pick up this murder mystery novel. I really enjoyed Case Histories by Kate Atkinson, and found it a genuine page-turner, which I read in less than 24 hours. 4★s

I have just picked up Across the Universe by Beth Revis. Already 1/4 of the way through!

Do you like it? The series averaged out at three stars for me.

[Sally906]

Yes I do so far - not a 5 star read but a solid 4 star at the moment. To many questions and not enough answers yet. But I am only a wee way in so we will see. I guess she is still world building :)

[Phrynne, Series Queen!]

I finished Chelsea Mansions by Barry Maitland. It was really very good!

I can't see a hat Suzanne?

[Marianne]

I thought that too.....is there an edition with a girl in a hat on the cover? Couldn't see one listed on GR...

[Suz]

Oh my goodness I'm lying!! There was a big dirty messy sticker with texta all over it (I read a withdrawn library copy which was tatty) and I didn't even look properly.. It was like that's what I thought it was in my head??! Like all the others we'd been commenting on over the last few months! I made up my own cover ;)

[Suz]

You guys are going to think I'm more nuts than ever now lol lol

[Carolyn]

Maybe you saw a metaphorical hat Suzanne?

You know what this means? You STILL haven't read a book with a girl in a hat on the cover! lol!!

[Marianne]

It looks like she could wear a hat but we just can't quite see it, dontcha reckon?

I have decided to take a short break for my read for review books. So I am reading Anzac Girls: The Extraordinary Story Of Our World War 1 Nurses

[Ryan]

Finished the Hugo and Nebula winning Ancillary Justice. It was unique and intelligent but not especially enjoyable. I gave it three stars and wrote a review.

Next up is The Golem and the Jinni, by Helene Wecker.

[Brenda, Aussie Authors Queen]

Really, really enjoyed The Golem and the Jinni Ryan!

Early this morning (too early to get up) I woke and couldn't get back to sleep. My bedside read just wasn't doing it for me so I grabbed my Samsung Galaxy Tablet and read Marina Finlayson's The Family Business. It was just the right length, definitely a fun read, thanks Marina!

(also on Amazon and Amazon UK)

[Marianne]

and that's the first full story I've read on my new tablet, too!

[Marianne]

But my current read is one recently discussed on the ABC Book Show, Brother of the More Famous Jack: A Novel by Barbara Trapido, enjoying it, only my reading has taken a dive with the treadmill out of action!
