Clever writing Di, with all the early chapters alternating the voice of the wife and the husband, the wife in the past and the husband in the now and I have no idea where it's leading. I shall be reading more of her books. I tend to avoid modern American authors but this one is a winner for me.

Yes it sounded interesting, I like a book having different voices. Very clever to pull it off.

I've finished Reservation Road and really enjoyed it, despite finding it a bit hard to get into at first. Now I'm back with Hilary Mantel and I'm reading Fludd at the moment. Like a lot of her books it's a bit weird but I'm enjoying it.

I have Gone Girl on order from the library but have been waiting for ages for it.

I was reading Thursdays in the Park on Kindle and then my mum lent me Paul O'Grady's first autobiography. I am nearly finished that (am really enjoying it) and will then go back to Thursdays in the Park until something comes from the library.

I do still prefer a proper book to my Kindle.

Di and Debih! Get 'Gone Girl' as soon as you can and read it. You are both denying yourselves the pleasure as it is terrific. I 'm 65% of the way through and what a journey of a read it is.

It isn't just a mystery or a crime novel, it is about relationships between men and women and the differences in the way we think. So many layers and often uncomfortable.
