Number three in the Thursday Murder Club series. I don’t like these at all, and this was certainly the worst; poorly and predictably...

Very good and very well written – good prose. An old fashioned detective novel with a contemporary setting. The two sleuths are a couple...

Never heard of the author, but this was very good, and beautifully written. A crime novel, set possibly in Edwardian or late Victorian...

A wonderful book, read it before (177 & 8) and still difficult. So, just to help out any other baffled reader, the even numbered chapters...

This was far better and I devoured it far faster. A debut novel about kids at university and their beguiling lecturer Lorna, who teaches,...

First book on my very challenging to use new kindle. I re-read 650 with a view to re-reading this, but my kindle then died, hence a...

No coincidence (and no relative I assume) but started re-reading this only for my Kindle to die. So unfinished. Finished this after...

Bingeing on Jackson Brodie - this is no.2 and although quite different as good as no.1. Julie is now Jackson’s girlfriend and the action...

Sensationalist in topic, possibly by analogy to the Cameron era, but not really that good. (Actually better I think). A political aide is...

This, I thought, was poorly written, but the terrific pace of the plot made up for that. A man is minding his own business in his garden...
