Happy Bunny. Managed to find a new Montalbano story by Camilleri, A Voice in the Night. Plus a new Adamsberg by Fred Vargas, A Climate of Fear. Two of my favourite crime writers.

Picked up 2 books in library by Noah Boyd simply because of this on the front cover ‘Move over Jack Reacher, here comes the Bricklayer’ -  James Patterson.  Main character is an ex FBI agent working for the FBI when persuaded to do so but on his own terms.  Titles – The Bricklayer & Last Chance to Die.  I find the style of writing easy to read & The Bricklayer so far is for me a good read.

Just read "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" by Hunter S Thompson.

Very strange.

Picked up one of Ian Mortimer's "Time Travellers guide..." books today from the library. 

Find them an interesting read as I like History. Have to wait until I finish a couple of others though.

Camilleri's Montalbano one was OK, not as good as some of his others.

Recently started "The Snowden Files - The Inside Story about the Most Wanted Man" about Edward Snowden......good so far.

I don't usually do science fiction. But I've just finished "Good morning, midnight" by Lily Brookes-Dalton which I picked up at random from the library before coming away.

It's set some time in the future and alternates between a lone astronomer whose chosen to remain on his own in an Arctic observation station and a spacecraft returning from Jupiter which has lost all contact with earth.

Great story telling and use of language and with a stunning ending which I'd defy anyone to guess.

A great read if you're lookingvfor something different! 

I bought a new book to take away with us last Saturday - "Magpie Murders" by Anthony Horowitz and really enjoyed it (reading it straight through in two sittings). It's a typical 1950's village detective story nestled inside a modern day mystery. 

Not too heavy, but the sort of book you want to get to the end to find out the answers, but also don't want to finish.

P.S. When I say "bought a book" - I downloaded to my Kindle.

Just finished Another One Goes Tonight written by Peter Lovesey.  A good detective story based around Bath.  I shall probably try & pick up others in the Peter Diamond series as this kept me guessing for most of the book but have 2 David Baldacci’s waiting for me just now.

For anyone who's a fan of Peter Robinson's Inspector Banks books and may have missed some, or anyone wanting to get into the series, Kindle has most of the at 98p available today! 

Just starting to re read all of the Tom Sharp books, they are still good. Having worked in a FE college Wilt (there was a film version) is my favourite, so true to life.
