Kate Atkinson's Life after Life - I loved it.

Where'd you go Bernadette by Maria Semple is really good too.


When I was on holiday I tried some of Nora Ephron's writing fo r the first time and loved it - essays work quite well for holiday, and don't be misled by 'essay' as they're all v easy reads! I read 'Things I hate about my neck', and then got her novel 'Heartburn' on my kindle and really liked it too (it's pretty obviously autobiographical).

These are the last few I read:


The Paris Wife: A Novel ** loved this

Paula McLain


Dissolution (Shardlake Series)

C. J. Sansom


The Graves are Walking

John Kelly


Miss Peregrine's Home for Peculiar Children

Ransom Riggs


The Partridge and the Pelican

Rachel Crowther


Inferno: (Robert Langdon Book 4)

Dan Brown


Wool (Wool Trilogy 1) ** loved this!

Hugh Howey


Winter in Madrid

C. J. Sansom


Mr Penumbra's 24-hour Bookstore

Robin Sloan

Agree Gone Girl is a good read but like the poster above I felt it fizzled out a bit and got ridiculous. I thought 'before i go to sleep' a much better thriller, if you are after one.


Also the new Maggie O Farrell - think is instructions for a heatwave? - not her best but still v readable and great holiday book.

    • I'm not on the WhatsApp group ,and he only appears every now and again but does look like he's needs a good home and is not neutered. 
    • Why are you so rude? What has race got to do with anything? That's got nothing to do with whether or not a description is posted on here  The OP said the cyclist was being pursued by the police. If that's the case, then the police will presumably have his  description, including skin colour  If you think you encountered the same cyclist and could have been seriously hurt, then tell the police. And you have lost your bet, btw. You know nothing at all about me or my background except what I have posted on this forum,  and are making assumptions based on what appears to be a total lack of understanding of the reasons for my posts.
    • Worth posting on local street Whatsapp groups? Guessing no info from door knocking.  Those def look like unneutered Tom cat cheeks. Would be brilliant if a rescue could trap and at least neuter and return if he's a stray. Ideally find him a home - he'll settle more when neutered. Poor chap xxx    HP  
    • Whilst 'try taking off the blinkers' is a really insightful comment, could you expand a little? What do you disagree with - the £2.925 trillion, the role of the bond markets, or the demands for investment in public services?
