Best reads - Club Together Book Club?

Just finishing my favourite anti hero, Bernie Gunther, in Philip Kerr's "Greeks Bearing Gifts"

Still as enjoyable as ever.

Have you read Black Water Lilies yet, brue. What did you think of it? Did you guess the ending?

I've just finished Stuart Macbride's latest Logan Macrae story, The Blood Road, rather depressing story line but told with his typical offhand humour. 

Moulesy I was introduced to the Stuart MacBride Logan MacRae books earlier this year by friends in NZ. I have the latest with me on this trip. Gosh the stories are about dark subjects which I wouldn't normally even contemplate and certainly not for pleasurable reading 😲😲 but boy are they page turners. As you say offhand humour. I'm reading another charity book purchase not in my usual reads Jill Mansell Rumour has it, nice and light and fluffy. Perhaps I should have read then the other way round 😉

Unfortunately not Moulesy, I lent it to my BIL, who went to France, he's back at the moment and then off to France again this weekend so I might see the book again sometime in late July! I'll let you know what I think then, I hope. 

Another recommended CT book by TDA is Black Diamonds which I have nearly finished and has been a cracking read! 

I tend to read several books at a time, picking up the one I fancy as the mood takes me. I'm also reading a nice book called Modern Delight which is book of short musings by a variety of well known people about things that delight them, it came out at the time of the financial collapse and it's a bit of a spirit lifter (produced for charity funds.) 

Another recommended CT book by TDA is Black Diamonds which I have nearly finished and has been a cracking read!

Great read isn't it! Certainly makes one want to visit the house, which we may well do during the last week of our next trip.

Love the Stuart MacBride books. There are a number of collections of short stories with Logan Macrae on Kindle which fills in more aspects of his story. 

Am at present reading books by Martin Walker featuring Bruno a policeman employed by the mayor in a Dordogne town.  Bruno is ex-army and a local who has a way of doing his job which best suits the town.   A lot of eating and wine drinking references in these books as well as policing.   For me enjoyable easy reading.

Thanks, just looked those up, the pile of books will get even bigger!

OH and I are reading My Time, Bradley Wiggin's tale of his racing life between 2009 and 2016, which covers his early rides in TdeF, TofB, and some of his Olympic wins, and of course 2012, Tour win and London Olympics. Very interesting, great insights into cycling life and how they cope with the highs and lows and injuries. Charity bought, a present for OH from my Sister. Very cycling heavy of course, but interesting about his relationships with other riders, coaches and family.

The first 5 Stuart MacBride, Logan McRae series, books are on sale on Kindle for 99p each but for one day only. Get there quickly for this great series!!

Typical I'm on 8 2. Great series easy read but some are more gory than others 😲😉.  I scour the charity shops wherever I am. Secured the next- pure chance 😆, in the series in Hertford yesterday.
