It just so happened that I read a Russell Blake, then a Blake Crouch and I was wondering what to read next, perhaps an Agatha Raisin, as I didn't know what I fancied and I noticed a link, so I thought "What about doing the alphabet. After Agatha, I forgot about it, but then realised I was reading Moon Dance. So alphabet here I come. I shall list what I have read so far in the next post.

And I am now on
http://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/B0...
I think that my choices are rather varied.
Cosy / action / thriller / vampires / regency romance / motor racing / horror / anthology / paranormal romance :)
So lets get on with the reading (and catching up on my reviewing)
Oh and so far they are all 4 out of 5 star books.
I quite enjoyed
It had a bit of a mystery in it. Not too much romance for me.
Now onto J and I chose something from an author who I seem to be collecting lots of freebies, but haven't tried one yet.
It is a technothriller and is good, so I'm glad I've been collecting this author.
K was
4*L was
3*I quite like Tom Holt's surrealness and this was up there, but my attention was drifting and I jumped to the Ms before finishing.
M was
5*This was a very intriguing story about a demon who infects the internet.
I was desperate to get to O so needed a quickie
N was
3*This was a collection of shorts and most of them were pretty good, but I skipped over more than one.
So now to O and a very tenuous link as the O word is "of" :)
Queen of Scots Mystery by Cecilia Peartree. Who is always a bit slow in adding her books to Goodreads ;p
I cheated a bit as my "O" became a "Q" as I didn't fancy anything there, soO was
3*This was a chick lit book about 3 women who open a wine bar.
P was
4*This was quite interesting in that a plague has hit and one family is boarded into their house and die. Honest, it's better than my précis :)
Q was the superb Queen of Scots by Cecilia Peartree. I love these books so it's a five star from me.
R was
3*Another John Locke book, but with different characters. I keep going back to him as the books are very easy reads.
S was
3*Another easy (and short) read.
T was
3*I seem to have a lot of this author's books, so thought I'd sample a short one to see if I liked it and I do.
And now I'm getting into the tricky part of the alphabet.
U was The Uneven Passage of Time 4*An interesting trio of time travel short stories.
V was
3*Tales from Chelsea Handler
W was
5*I really enjoyed this. 12 people have to decide amongst themselves how they are going to divide a fortune.
X was
4*This wasn't as seedy as I expected from the book title. I read it in one day.
Y is
It's OK so far.
I assume Z will be a zombie book and I will finish my challenge by day after tomorrow. So that will be 26 books in about 33 days. Yay for sunny holidays.
