I started reading the book today!

[Leena]

I'll start it in a few days. I want yo finish off Thirteen first.

[Stephanie_Reads_]

Oh I need this book!

[Maria]

You are in for a ride!

[Maria]

How I started my review.

It is not exactly an advert for tourism in Glasgow. It is wee dark, wee twisty and definitely Scottish or better yet Glaswegian.

Of course (chanelling Brookmyer) the wee word killed me!

[Donna]

Good book. A little
strange.

[Maria]

Why strange Donna?

[Maria]

Donna if you read the book please follow us in the spoiler alert discussion of the book

[Tayo]

Diving in now a little late start.

[Maria]

Welcome! Better late than never. Hope you enjoy the book!

[Dalia]

I'm late too. Starting with the book now :P

[Linda]

I'm not sure if I like it or not. It was a slow start. I wonder why they make the cops seem so dimwitted. I really have to think about this one.

[Maria]

I disagree Linda I do not think it’s slow start but rather too many stories being told at the same time. Dimwitted is not the word I would use to describe the “polis” in this book.

Give it another chance Linda.

[Maria]

Welcome Dalia!

[Dalia]

oh I'm starting to like the story, it's slowly building my interest. Came across some new slangs.

[Maria]

Yeah...the majority of slang is gangster related
