Jase Posted October 7, 2014 Report Share Posted October 7, 2014 I just finished American Gods (revised extended edition) by Neil Gaiman, what a great book and soon to be a TV series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunc Posted October 8, 2014 Report Share Posted October 8, 2014 Finally finished my Patricia cornwell hardback. Now to choose.....Michael Connelly or Dorothy Koomson? Both fairly dark authors but completely different genres. Decisions, decisions.,,,,, Michael Connelly Brilliant Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Emma Posted October 15, 2014 Report Share Posted October 15, 2014 I'm biding my time to read the michael connelly book.......saving the best till last. So here's another excellent offering from a fellow south eastern girl: Dorothy koomson. i like her as she writes about places that are very local so it's like I could have popped round to visit the characters for a cuppa.

Emma Posted November 12, 2014 Report Share Posted November 12, 2014 Now i'm onto another Dorothy Koomson novel......The cupid effect! She's got to be a local as the first page is talking about her walking around Bromley highstreet and I live in a part of Bromley and she clearly knows it too well to not have been there herself a fair bit!

Andy Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Have been re-reading the entire Pip and Flinx series by Alan Dean Foster. Interrupted them to read Blindsight by Peter Watts ( awesome first contact SF) Wolf and Iron by Gordon R. Dickson It an excellent read, I'm about 90% done. I love the Childe Cycle books by GRD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 On my to read soon list. Have you read this one Andy? I have all Lee Child's books, but the last one 'Never go Back' was such a disappointment, I swore I wouldn't read another one. But....... I loved Jack Reacher and may just give in and buy it. The reviews on Amazon are all over the place though, some seem to like it and a heck of a lot of readers hated it ? There are some good books being read on this thread and I have made note of some - especially the Jo Nesbo .......... I haven't read any of his books, so may try this one first.

Sorry Rosemary, No not got around to reading it yet. I agree the last few Reacher books have been a bit almost not "Reacher" Also. . . . A Colleague has read a few Jo Nesbo books and highly recommends them Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dunc Posted January 16, 2015 Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Just got hold of these by Jo Nesbo hope they as good as the sound The Son The Redbreast Nemesis The Devil's Star The Snowman The Leopard Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rosemary Posted January 16, 2015 Author Report Share Posted January 16, 2015 Ha, just downloaded The Bat by Jo Nesbo, now to find the time to read it :-) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elyse Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I have a pretty big reading list for 2015. The one I'm on now is called 'Cretaceous Dawn'. Basically, some people (some scientists) and a dog are thrown back 65 million years ago after a physics experiment gone wrong. Its a very smart read so far, I love it.

qweasd Posted January 17, 2015 Report Share Posted January 17, 2015 I would recommend reading the Jo Nesbo books in chronological order as he does refer back to events in previous books (for character development rather than for details in the crimes being investigated).
