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?

Had an early pressie today. An email from the library saying the new Harry Bosch was in for me. Got down there smartish.

Christmas Day afternoon I have an appointment with HB, a glass of red and a piece of Christmas Cake. smile

Enjoy WN. Have just been into The Pantry, the teas shop at College Fm, and I've spotted two books I'm after, The Seagull by Ann Cleeve and Flesh and Bones by Jefferson Bass, so I'll pop in tomorrow and get them.

You'll enjoy that,  a very clever ploy to team Bosch up with Renee Ballad,  really freshens things up. I think Lee Child could learn a thing or two from that because I've found the last couple of his Jack Reacher books very predictable.

As for me, I've just picked up the latest Rebus story so that'll do me for a while. smile

Noticed on kindle that they are selling a couple of books that I've read and can recommend.

Philip Kerr - A Man without Breath

Martin Walker - The Devils Cave

The first is part of his Bernie Gunther series, but you don't have to have read them in order for to enjoy it

The second is about Bruno, police chief in a small town in the Dordogne. It's not too heavy and quite an enjoyable light read.

"Bernie" is grittier but I like his gallows humour.

Well, I really enjoyed Harry Bosch. Great read. An author on top of his game.

Also read Colin Cotterill's The Rat Catchers Olympics the latest in his enjoyable Dr.Siri series. Have to wait now until later this year for the next instalment, lovingly entitled Don't Eat Me.smile

Just bought the latest Shardlake book, Tombland by C J Sansom and George RR Martin's Fire and Blood, a collection of short stories that tell “the definitive history of the Targaryens in Westeros.  It is not a follow on in the Game of Thrones series.

I enjoyed Tombland hope you do too.

Not been reading much lately but hoping to get back into it soon as I've got more Logan McCrae now!

Already? Thanks for the heads up, M. Will buy it as it warrants a re-read, probably in a few months time.
