To be fair it is like that!!
Plus I get t buy new releases way ahead of time.. In a way its best just to have one book at a time xx

Dustin For years and years, I would stick to one book at a time, but within the last year or so, I've taken up two. Now it feels almost foreign to be reading just one.

I'm the same, until I got my Kindle I could only read one book at a time. I find it's better to have two different books though or else I get a bit muddled.

Dustin I know, right? A lot of people think they'd become confused, but that has never happened. I love the variety!

I read the first one and enjoyed it a lot. They're quick easy reads and are great to read after a long non-fiction book has abused your brain

I loved Die Trying. Probably my favourite of the few of his I've read. The Visitor sounds good too. It's been sat on my shelf for ages now but I haven't got round to it yet

Yeah, Killing Floor is first. I can't really remember much about that one. Die Trying is the second I think. That one is great

Dustin Kyle ~Special K: Rebel Leader~ wrote: "I haven't read Lee Child yet. Is the first Reacher novel called Killing Floor? I need to know where to start."

Lee Child's a good writer, Kyle. I love his unique style! I've only read one Jack Reacher novel, Bad Luck And Trouble, and I loved it. He's such an awesome character.:) I really don't think it's necessary to read them in order, though.


message 4223: by Dustin (new)

Dustin You're very welcome.:) I could be mistaken, but no, I don't think the series told chronologically.


message 4224: by Aoibhínn (new)

Aoibhínn (aoibhinn) Yesterday I finished The Tea Rose by Jennifer Donnelly by Jennifer Donnelly. The Tea Rose is an extremely well-researched and well-written novel which is packed full of unexpected twists and turns throughout the story. I absolutely enjoyed this book! I thought this book was very gripping, intriguing and engrossing tale and I found it very hard to put it down for long. I couldn't wait to find out what happened next! I fell in love with all the main characters. They were all so interesting, compelling and very well-developed, especially Fiona. As soon as I finished this novel I brought the sequel, The Winter Rose, on my Kindle and I'm really looking forward to reading it!
My full review is here: http://www.goodreads.com/review/show/...


I've just started reading Me Before You by Jojo Moyes by Jojo Moyes.

message 4229: by Dustin (new)

Dustin Thank you, Kyle. I'll keep it in mind, for sure. And now that you mention it, I think I knew of Olsen's reputation as a true crime writer.
