Bill Peake | 10 comments I have just finished Child 44 - rather gruesome depiction of life in late and post-Stalinist Russia. I am next reading "Extra-Virginity" about the historical use of EVOO (extra-virgin olive oil) and the fraud so often foisted upon people - both historically and in the contemporary world! Yes - a mystery for "foodies"

I really liked that one, as well as Tom Rob Smith's second book, The Secret Speech. I want to get the newest one in the Demidov series.

Helen I'm reading a DTB, I decided to make an effort to get them read rather than sit unloved on shelves. It's odd turning pages though!

I'll definitely check it out! :)

On the completely opposite side of the literary spectrum, I'm now casually reading Tales of the Jazz Age by F. Scott Fitzgerald, because there just hasn't been enough F. Scott in my life recently.

Change you're thinking/opinion of Hemingway yet? I like his books but not him, not any more.

message 1397: by Betsy (new)

Betsy A Bittersweet Season: Caring for Our Aging Parents--and Ourselves, about the author's experiences caring for her aging and dying mother, and what she learned about related industries and issues. It's really good, as engrossing as a novel. I can't put it down.

Fiona (Titch) Hunt (titch) | 304 comments I finished this morning Last Train from Liguria - Christine Dwyer Hickey and now I am reading Office Politics - Sharon Gerlach


message 1399: by Aoibhínn (new)

Aoibhínn (aoibhinn) I'm reading The Complete Grimm's Fairy Tales. The TV show Grimm is about start airing in Ireland for the 1st time this week. Since is supposed to be based on storylines from the book, I wanted to read it first before I start watching the series.


message 1400: by Beth (new)

Beth I just finished reading Defending Jacob: A Novel Defending Jacob A Novel by William Landay . This is a excellent courtroom drama mystery. It starts slowly, drawing you in like an anaconda systematically squeezing its victim. By the time you reach the middle, you are trapped, the book stuck to your hands as the air is squeezed out of you. The story keeps changing as surprising revelations are casually dropped in your lap until you read the last two scenes with your mouth hanging open, finishing with a satisfying "Whoosh" for your last breath. Then the book lives with your for days afterward as you replay scenes in your mind. For me, that's what indicates a book deserves 5 stars. I highly recommend it!
