What are we reading in January?

[Osc]

I was reading a book about Seabiscuit, you may remember there was a film about him a few years back. It was really interesting but for some reason, and very unusually, it took me over a month to read it Now I'm enjoying The Black Box by Michael Connolly, I enjoy his detective books.

[Paddypix]

I'm working my way through Hilary Mantel. I read Wolf Hall and Bring up the Bodies and loved both of them. Now I've just started Beyond Black. A bit weird, but so far I'm enjoying it.

I am reading a book given to me by someone at work

The Seamstress by Maria Dunas

[debih]

This morning I started Midnight is a Lonely Place by Barbara Erskine. I am only on page 70 and it is already starting to scare me

The first book of hers that I ever "read" was House of Echoes and it was actually an audio book. It terrified me. I used to listen to it as I fell asleep each night and I had to stop in the end as it was giving me nightmares!!!

I haven't read many as I sort of forgot about her and then I came across this one in the library the other day.

[TheOstrich]

An Andy McNab SAS thriller called "Red Notice" which I can't say I'm enjoying. Will probably give up with this author.

Prior to that "The Litigators" by John Grisham which was mildly amusing, but a bit "so what".

I like her books Debih but they have scared the bejaysus out of me.

Many years ago I was staying at a hotel in Somerset and had finished the Barbara Erskine I had been reading.

I left it on the bedside table for someone else to have if they wanted it.

When I was downstairs checking out the lady that cleaned the rooms came running up to me with the book thinking I'd forgotten it. When I told her why I'd left it she said..'oh no, take it with you, all the female staff find her books too scarey!'

I have read a few of her books, but she is an author who I have to spread them apart a bit or they get too samey.

House of Echoes scared me to start with, then it just got silly. There were a tad too many ghosts in that one

My favourite is On the Edge of Darkness, I can thoroughly recommend that one

Agree with you Shell..if I read one a year that'll be fine by me.
I enjoy them though.

Haven't read Edge of Darkness..must look out for it.

It is really good Ally

I am the same with Jodie Piccoult they are all the same too, although the continuity in the last one I read was dreadful

[JoM]

I've had to slow up on the Jodi Picoults too.
