I'm getting started on Shatter A Novel by Michael Robotham. Read another book by him last year and really enjoyed it.
Ordered
from my library today. Started to read it for a group read last year, but i was reading it in eBook format, on my laptop. I gave up on it. It's only 160 pages long, just couldn't stand reading it on my laptop. It's a classic though, so am looking forward to reading.Just received an email from my library, to tell me
is ready to pick up. Good timing, as i have to return some books in the next few days.
Just finished
California Fire and Life
. It isn't a bad way to become acquainted with Don Winslow, and is perhaps a better start than
The Death and Life of Bobby Z
for established fans to explore the roots of his SoCal/surfer noir works. The arson angle makes for a different sort of crime story, and the words go down like a fresh margarita. Four stars.Read the full review here.
Now reading Tapping the Source .

Lance, the books you're reading would be good candidates for a future group read. I am going to be putting them up for a nomination soon.

I'm almost done reading Ghost Story which I'm reading for another group here. I haven't decided whether I'll read False Prophet by Faye Kellerman, The Tomorrow File by Lawrence Sanders, Utopia by Lincoln Child, or The Road To Omaha by Robert Ludlum. Or Critical Mass by Steve Martini. Decisions, decisions.....

I am reading The Ghost and Mrs. Mewer right now and am plan on reading a couple more cozies but not sure which ones.
Just finished The girl with all the gifts. Haven't had a good cry at the end of a book like that in years!

a few months ago @Leeanne, and I was quite surprised at the story. I enjoyed it and it is not the type of book I would normally read.

There's a new revenge thriller coming out on Friday on Kindle called One by One by Robert Enright, I've been given a sneak peak and its brilliant, although very violent!
