Now I'm changing pace and reading Amped by Daniel H. Wilson. I was really impressed with his first novel, Robopocalypse, so I'm excited to read his sophomore effort.


It is a romp with TV news photographer, Lily Hawkins. Her uncle Bud is brutally attacked and she uses all
her TV station's resources and her own "guttsiness"
to solve this crime and in the mean time learns a lot
about her uncle's life.


the other is[bookcover:A Noble Radiance|68097 This is in Donna Leon's series with the detective Brunetti in Venice. I have read quite a few of these, I like the setting and the main guy and his family. I didnt guess who did this, I rarely do!!

Did you enjoy The Last Kashmiri Rose? I've enjoyed the series so far. Interesting setting and stories.

Yes I did, it was the first time for this author but it will not be the last. I'm looking forward to the rest of the series.

I read this book recently and couldn't put it down and it is one of those books that makes you want to scream at times, in a good way and also makes you cry. I just couldn't get enough of it and it's a very surprising book too, full of twists and turns, just brilliant.
I am also reading my book that just got published by raven crest books because well you just have to don't you when it first gets published, especially as it is my first book to be published, it's called Insane Renothe other book I read recently was Mile 81 I love Stephen King, but I didn't find this short story quite as gripping as his longer novels. Next planned read, is Heart-Shaped BoxI believe Joe hill is Stephen kings son but that he used a false name as he didn't want to get famous of his fathers fame, which I think is amazing and good for him so very much looking forward to reading this one by him as I haven't read any of his books yet.

I'd love to hear what you think about Full Dark No Stars, I picked this up from a library sale in June.






I recently obtained the first two books in this series by Slaughter. They are fairly high on Mt. TBR.


now starting

How are you enjoying the series, Ann? I really liked the two main characters. They had faults and made mistakes and yet were very likeable at the same time. I've been hoping the author will write another mystery series.

The first two books are two of my favorite in the series! Enjoy!

My book club, the Lit Chx just read Exile and I'm curious what Barbara thinks of this book. I felt it
could have been edited a little better. It does
have a timely subject, the Palestian and Israeli
never ending conflict, The War without End. One of
the great quotes in the book (paraphrase, but close)
"Since when did God become a real estate agent"!
I thought the book interesting, somewhat objective,
but a little too long.

Dobbs mystery. I really liked the first two because they are so pleasant, evoking London and solving one
or two cases. Love Maisie and in the third book

Nurse during WWI so we get a little of French flavor as
she visits places her case is leading her to see.

I just finished the first story. It was creepy but really interesting. Hope the other stories are just as good!

Thanks for the update. I haven't read much King, so I figured it better to start in smaller doses.
