  • My recent reads are:
    Stuart MacBride - Place of Darkness. I have read a lot by this author, this is his new one. Police procedurals set in and around Aberdeen in the north of Scotland. Always good with a sprimkling of humour.
    Stuart Pawson, I have read four of his which feature a Policeman called Charlie Priest. These are set in a ficticious town in the north of Emgland, close to where I live. Charlie visits real towns, including mine. They are all very old because this author died in 2010
    Last Reminder - Chill Factor - Limestone Cowboy - Some by Fire
    Robert Crais - Lullaby Town. Very old and featuring Detective Elvis Cole. A long time since I read one of these
    Frieda McFadden - The Housemaid. This lady writes some very different stories and very good
    Frieda McFadden - The Locked Door. See above
    Peter Finch - Never Seen Again New author to me but very good

    In and among I read a couple of non-fiction

    Coronation Street, 1960 - 2000. This is about a UK TV soap. I haven't seen it for years but I was a fan back in the day and it was good to reminisce (?). You are probably not familiar with this series, I don't know if it is braoadcast in the US. It is, or certainly was, broadcast in Canada as I used to discuss it with Mo
    Peter Kay. Peter is a UK comedian and very very funny.

          • OOHHH. anything to report on the REACHER book? I bought it but haven't read it yet.
            I started reading Crais because y'all here had suggested him years ago. I really enjoyed them. Still haven't read anything really in years ('cept Dans WONDERFUL book!)

            • I'm still reading the books I bought on my trip off a few weeks ago starting with Brian Freeman. The first ever in the Jonny Stride series. Then I moved on to Brian McGillvary, his books are set in Ireland more or less in the border between NI and the Republic. My son has given me two very thick books by David Baldacci

                Well, half way through and it's the typical new style that i don't like.
                It's very confusing to read and i keep having to try and remember the characters and their place in the story

                  I've read most all Freeman's Stride & Baldacci. Good reads.
