| I found this intriguing and original. The pics are a lot like those created for the Black Sand series, but obviously we have new characters - Pokey, Mac, Birdie and Maisie. They all find tokens in cereal, a box of baking soda, a juice, and they are a ...more | |

| No, I did not like this book. I didn't like the whole psychological thriller side of things. The main character was truly awful and there was a creepiness to this story that gave me a feeling of yuk. I guess it was well written, but it wasn't origina ...more | |

| I can see why Agatha put this book in her top 10 favs. I found this short crime very satisfactory. The characters were good - old wooden faced Battle was worth his word weight in coin, and I liked the possible criminals. Despite the clear plot A.C ma ...more | |

I've never read any of Bennett's books. Of course I've watched Lady in the Van, but didn't quite twig that it was based on an autobiography and thought it was only a script. Killing Time is about a group of elderly people in a slightly posh (not posh ...more |

| It took me some time to read through this relatively thin book. It's because it is dense with references to saints, relics, castles, and cashels, souterrains and secret rooms, damp and dark spaces, light and birds. It is, in short, quite a mystical t ...more | |

| I was torn about this book. I know quite a bit about the Mitford sisters, but obviously I wanted to know a little more. This book provides a LOT of information within its (blank - no numbers) pages. It would have been overwhelming just on that alone, ...more | |

After reading a mixture of dry, dull, overly spiritual/mystical, not that well written novels, I found The Trial a bit of silly fun that was easy enough to read. The first few chapters were pretty good. We had Adam Green ringing his Mum, Adam Green in ...more |
