Thanks. A couple of the books I bought I haven't been able to get from the library. I picked up The Dinner based on your recommendation, Marianne.

I purchased Broken Bones on Kindle US for only $3.99! Now I just have to read them! They will be part of my next series TBR once I'm finished with the several series I'm reading now.

Both sound good - added to my 'want to read' shelf
If you do read William Kent Krueger's books Diana then start with the first book in the series. There is a lot of character development which makes the books even better:)

Just received from Allen & Unwin -
Suddenly One Summer by Fleur McDonald and
The Passage of Love by Alex Miller

The Passage of Love by Alex Miller
Netgalley just gave me A Time of Love and Tartan by Alexander McCall Smith which makes me very happy
That's the way :) You read John Sandford don't you? NetGalley has his new one there if you're interested.
I am only just starting his books and he has two lengthy series so I doubt I will be up to his current stuff for a while:)

I needed to have some shopping therapy yesterday - but it's not pay week to next week! What's a girl to do?Hit free eBooks!!! Can press that buy button without hurting your purse!!!
So my stash from yesterday included this one:

Oh - and I've also just got my hands on copies of:

I'm a fan of middle grade fiction and this one came into work today. Saving Marty by Paul Griffin. I had read his previous middle grade book When Friendship Followed Me Home and enjoyed it so grabbed this new title.

Can't wait for the second one to come out featuring Aaron Falk. Have you tried Never Never and Fifty Fifty by James Patterson - both set in Australia and featuring a feisty female detective?
