I've read a couple of Mark Billingham's novels, he's not bad! :D

I'm ploughing through Peter James' "Absolute Proof". He usually writes crime fiction - the DS Roy Grace series, based in Brighton, which are excellent - but this one's a different one - it has a sort of Dan Brown "Da Vinci Code" type plot.
It's readable, but perhaps not quite as good as Dan Brown himself.

I've finally got around to starting Eleanor Oliphant Is Completely Fine by Gail Honeyman.

I'm not too far into it but its really drawing me in.

I've just finished an excellent read : "What You Did" by Claire McGowan. At a reunion get-together for old University friends, Ali's best friend is attacked, and accuses Ali's husband of rape. What follows is an unravelling of her cosy life, and a painful revision of her closest relationships.

Who was it that had read/wanted to read Eleanor Oliphant? Is it Jo?

I have just started a book in a similar vein (once Amazon get to know your book preferences they keep sending you recommendations!!) about, rather appropriately for me, a Cat Lady :D :lol: Looking interesting so far 8-)
