Lisa | 75 comments Just finished Abide with Me by Ian Ayris and Me Before You by Jojo Moyes . Both great reads. Absolutely loved Me before You, what a tear jerker.
Just starting Children of the Fog by Cheryl Kaye Tardif

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I finished Lords and Ladies then started Alice Parker's Metamorphosis finished that too so started The Real Walt Disney: A Biography as it's a paper back and I was having a bath. Need to decide on another to start on my kindle.


Desley (Cat fosterer) (booktigger) | 12620 comments I finished Twisted by Jeffrey Deaver, enjoyed it and only guessed a couple of twists. Now trying to finish The Clinic by Jonathan Kellerman


message 2654: by [deleted user] (new)

I finished reading The Last English Village which I thoroughly enjoyed - a gently escapist tale.

I haven't started it yet, but I plan to give Gray Justice a go for kuf. I can't always cope with thrillers because I am quite nervy (like Mrs Bennett) and can't handle the tension! I'll see how I get on anyway..

message 2655: by [deleted user] (new)

I've finished Gray Justice now. I enjoyed some of it but found the ending too violent for my taste - but then I'm not really a thriller fan.

Now I've just downloaded The Tonic to read for our group read (I've given up on Wuthering Heights which I have read years ago anyway..)

Sticky? Have some ribs from Steve's party found their way over here then...?

I've just finished The Tonic and really enjoyed it!

Not sure what I will read next, something light...

Helen Smith (emperorsclothes) | 39 comments Just started A Game of Thrones Really enjoying it so far.


message 2667: by Elle (new)

Elle (louiselesley) | 6579 comments im a little terrified to start that book in fear i won't remember any names. ill need to make notes.


message 2668: by Patti (baconater) (new)

Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments Daves just started book three.

He printed out a set of maps for it and I think he spends as much time studying the maps as he does reading the books.

I think there's a character tree in there as well. He's made himself quite the little booklet.

Would you lot like me to find out which website he found them on for you?


message 2669: by Jud (new)

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I loved the books and I didn't even need a character tree or a map. I did get confused with the characters in book 5 though, there were 2 new groups and I thought they were the same people which confused me greatly for a while.

Oh thank you Patti. Thats great!


message 2671: by Maureen (Mews) (new)

Maureen (Mews) (mews) | 711 comments Just finished Diary of a Parallel Man by Mahershalalhashbaz. Really liked the story but not sure I liked the ending. Don't want to add more for fear of spoilers for anyone who hasn't read it.

Not sure what to start next.


message 2672: by Patti (baconater) (new)

Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments I set aside The Midwife's Confession a few days ago to beta read Steve's new book.

Went back to it last night but I'm afraid it's lost it's allure now. I'm only about 70% along yet all the little mysteries seem to be solved already.

Don't know if I want to face 30% of tieing up the plot threads. Would probably been alright if I'd not had a break from it.

Oh and you're quite welcome, Pat. I wish you'd mentioned it ages ago!
Please do let us know if you have any niggles with the group. Simon and I will always do our best to sort it, if we can. :)

Oh yes, Patti! That would be great thanks!

Emma Just finished Divergent and am now reading Insurgent by Veronica Roth.


message 2676: by [deleted user] (new)

I've just finished See Before You Die: Costa Rica which I enjoyed. chicklit, cosy mystery and travel book rolled into one. A nice holiday or escapist read.

Now I'm going to read the next in the series, See Before You Die: Patagonia.

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I finished Men at Arms which is probably my favourite watch book so far, then I started (and finished)Relationship Status then started and finished The Turtle Boy. Oh what to read next...

Ohh Darren, Now I feel as if I'm a bit too close to Cornwalls coasts! Head for the hills folks, it much safer in them!

Patti (baconater) (goldengreene) | 56525 comments What did you think of Deadlocked Ellie? It's in my TBR. Way down the list...

Is it worth bumping up?


message 2681: by Jud (new)

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I flicked to the end of my kindle and picked something to read that was hidden away in the bowels of my kindle books and have now started A Walk to Remember also found the notebook on there so might read that next. I loved the movie but makes me greet like a little girl

Jud (judibud) | 16799 comments I finished A Walk to Remember last night and started The Notebook


D.M. Andrews (author) Andrews (dmandrews) | 1551 comments I've not got much further with that novel. I'm not sure if cozy crime is my cup of tea.

Nell Grey (nellgrey) | 212 comments Just finished The Aeneid and A Room of One's Own. I may have to read a Western next - goodness knows how I'll find something, but they say it's good to stretch yourself. Who are these people who say these things...?


message 2690: by Fiona (Titch) (new)

Fiona (Titch) Hunt (titch) | 942 comments Finished Footprints on the Beach - Aleksandar Žiljak, was a nice relaxing story of love from 2 different time zones. Now I am going to read Abide with Me - Ian Ayris.

Desley (Cat fosterer) (booktigger) | 12620 comments I have read Black Book by Ian Rankin this week and have nearly finished The Poet by Michael Connolly. Not sure what is next to be read, although I do know I will have to put the Kindle on charge before another day in the sun!!


message 2694: by Nell (new)

Nell Grey (nellgrey) | 212 comments Started and finished Civilization and Its Discontents by Sigmund Freud. A compelling read, in spite of his attitude to women and a few odd theories developed from what seemed like leaps of logic.


message 2695: by Pat () (new)

Pat ()  | -245 comments Finished Groomed for Death an amusing gentle murder if there is such a thing.
Half way through Natural Causes I only started this one to see if it would be a good book for a quiz. Now I want to know why the poor girl suffered such a horible death.


message 2696: by Jacquie (new)

Jacquie | 99 comments Just finished Belinda Goes to Bath which I really enjoyed and just started All The Pretty Dead Girls.
