I think Calling of the Grave is his best yet Lorraine, I flew through it. Simon Beckett gets better with every book.

Lorraine  | 575 comments I've just pushed it to the top of my 'to buy' pile.


message 1954: by Anita (new)

Anita | 3313 comments You won't be sorry Lorraine, I think it's £3.59 right now so good value too. Have you read the Ruth Galoway series by Elly Griffiths? If you enjoy Simon Beckett I think you will enjoy the Elly Griffiths.


message 1955: by Janey (new)

Janey | 46 comments I read The Hunger Games which I really enjoyed then went on to read The Time Hunters by Carl Ashmore. I'm now back with Suzanne Collins and reading the second book in the Hunger Games trilogy Catching Fire.

Lorraine  | 575 comments Just started to read The Crossing Places by Elly Griffiths.

I read one of the ones I got free from Amazon yesterday and loved it - I think the author is a member here? Panic Button by Frazer Lee.

Now reading Andrew Marr's The Diamond Queen - I'm not a particularly strong royalist, or republican come to that, I'm just a nosy bu**er lol


message 1958: by Anita (new)

Anita | 3313 comments I am sure you will enjoy them Lorraine.
I got the Diamond Queen too Katie, not read it yet but would love to know what you think of it.

Scott Collins | 34 comments Currently reading Chop Suey. Pretty funny thriller so far.

Really liking it Anita... I was never any good at History at school but now love reading about it - fact or fiction - my favourite Dickens book is A Tale of Two Cities and numbering among the books I will never throw out, even though I intend to get them on Kindle eventually, are Philippa Gregory's Tudor Court novels (The Other Boleyn Girl etc)


message 1961: by [deleted user] (new)

I've just read Mel's A Twist in the Tale which I enjoyed. Didn't take me long to read them! I was caught out by most of the twists except one.

Desley (Cat fosterer) (booktigger) | 12594 comments Have just finished Alex Cross's Trial. While it is slightly annoying that it is included in the Cross series as it makes practically no reference to it, and it is a common surname, by the end it is only annoying as it is a very standalone book and i think it could be named better.

As long as you can read certain parts without visualizing what you are reading too much, it was a very engrossing book - i had to tear myself away from it last night. Very emotional as well.

Now got I, ALex Cross, the last of the ones i own to read.

I read Spine Slaughter yesterday - ewwwww!

Now I'm nearly half way through The Time Hunters and loving it! It's been on my kindle for ages, should have read it long ago!!

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I finished Pyramids and started The Mutilation Machination the other night at rehearsals so shall keep dipping into that. Haven't decided what to read next, maybe another Terry Pratchett or maybe something else.

Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments I loved Spine Slaughter!


message 1971: by Clare (new)

Clare Ashton | 1 comments Just finished a short story called Displaced by Elle LaPraim. I hadn't read any science fiction for a very long time and this may get me back into reading some. It was a very non-geeky, human story, very well written and conceived.

Just starting Only the Innocent (am I the last person to read this?!)

Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments I loved Only the Innocent!


message 1973: by Lorraine (new)

Lorraine  | 575 comments I loved spine Slaughter,just wish it had been longer.I see Only the Innocent has gone up to £1.99,still worth every penny.


message 1974: by Anita (new)

Anita | 3313 comments No Clare I have not read it yet, it's high on the list though, mind you lots are high on my list!

Pleased to hear you are enjoying it Katie, another high on the tbr list! I am pleased you are ejoying reading history books. I always enjoyed history but when I was at school (a very long time ago) the text books were very hard going indeed. Now there are so many great authors that have made history enjoyable & very readable.

message 1977: by Karina (new)

Karina Kantas Finished Hush, Hush (Hush, Hush, #1) by Becca Fitzpatrick Best book I've read so far this year.



Just started Vampires, Ghosts, and God (Five Novel Box Set) by Aiden James
Vampire, Ghosts and God. Loved the vampire novel shame it's part of a series. On to the Ghost story now.


message 1978: by [deleted user] (new)

I've just finished The Time Hunters and absolutely loved it! I'll get the next in the series but won't read it straight away. I'm catching up with some of the books which have been on my kindle for a while but are also "our" authors to help with my challenge. So now I'm reading The Oxwagon List which is the only Mary Fitzgerald novel which I haven't read yet!

At least there are some benefits to being poorly - I'm getting on well with my TBR list and also catching up here a bit!!

Karina Kantas sorry to hear you're not well Karen. Hope you feel better soon. What would we do without our books?

Kath Middleton | 23860 comments Cornelius Harker's Words to the Wise Book 1 Words to the Wise is stunning.

You knew I'd say that.

message 1990: by Lorraine (new)

Lorraine  | 575 comments Just finished The Crossing Places and now i'm torn between Broken Silence or Taunting the Dead or seeing what takes my fancy when the March books are put up.


message 1991: by Jud (new)

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I finished The Mutilation Machination last night at rehearsals. It was very well timed actually as I was able to read one story (or 2) in between my times on stage! Have now started The Man From U.N.D.E.A.D. - The Curious Case Of The Kidnapped Chemist enjoying it so far although not read enough to completely understand what's going on :o)

message 1993: by [deleted user] (new)

I've finished reading The Oxwagon List which was very good. Now I'm dipping in and out of two books - Tales From the Glades of Ballymore, which is a very pleasant read, and Yes Sister, No Sister: My Life as a Trainee Nurse in 1950s Yorkshire, which I'm finding very interesting. I'm looking forward to finding out what the group reads are this month.
