I'm just about coming to the end of Deborah Moggach’s book, Heartbreak Hotel. I found it a very enjoyable read and very amusing. But what should I read next? Any recommendations? 

I also wondered if anyone would be interested in a Club Together book club? According to a member survey earlier last year, reading is the most recurring leisure activity whilst caravanning. I know I’m a book worm and I’m sure there’s a few of us out there who enjoy a good read. Anyone interested or any suggestions?

Anyone read the NCA series of books by Bill Rogers, based round Manchester? Not tried them myself but they are at £1 each on Kindle at present.

He has another earlier series, also based round M/C, where his main character is DCI Tom Caton.

Double success at local library yesterday where I collected Anne Cleeves' latest Shetland thriller "Wildfire" and the new Michael Connelly instalment of Harry Bosch "Dark Sacred Night". Just need a few wet days with no chance of being summoned to the garden now! smile

I had to laugh when I read your post, M. I've got Bosch on order at the library. Great news, I'm now only 72nd in line.smile

Next up is a Tom Thorne one and a Stuart Macbride (on library ebook which gives me 3 weeks only)

It's no good for me trying to order a book from our local library as we're always away longer than the allowed borrowing time.wink I just have to wait till they either come on Kindle or my daughter buys them, read then pass on to me.

If you like crime novels especially the Tom Thorne and Roy Grace novels then my OH’s latest read might be the start of a new series for you. He has just finished Hell’s Gate by Malcolm Hollingdrake. This is the 2nd book in a series of 7 (at present) and are based around Harrogate. He suggests you leave Book 1 for another day.

He says it was an excellent read and the fact the author is one of his tennis partners is purely coincidental!

Natasha, I see that the first one, Only the Dead, is 99p on Kindle at the moment. We have already got it I find, so must get round to reading it some time.

Natasha, it now seems that we have the first 4 of the series, although neither OH or myself downloaded them, so must have been done by our daughter who is also on our Kindle account. I'll work my way through them while we're away on our next trip.

If anyone reads spy/thriller books Daniel Silva’s book ‘The Other Woman’ featuring Gabriel Allon could be of interest. He tends to weave into his novels things that the public may be aware of. It was a good read for me. I think this one came out in the summer.
