'Predictive, derivative and a staccato narrative.'
Perfectly Good Man – Patrick Gale
'Really good book. Set in Cornwall. Didn’t want to finish it.'
Pieces of Her – Karin Slaughter
'Best name for a mystery author. Enjoyed it overall but found some bits a little gruesome.'
Temptation of Forgiveness – Donna Leon
'Pretty good. Few twists and turns.'
Girls Like Us – Gale Giles
'Set in modern time. Friendship fic. Funny, very honest and at time sad.'
Eat & run – Scott Durek
'Thoroughly enjoyed. Autobiography of ultra-marathoner. It’s all about power of mind. Very informative.'
In Order to Live – Yeonmi Park
'Autobiography of North Korean girl. Found it really hard to get into. Skipped ahead in some
parts, not sure if I’ll finish it.'
The Dudley Smith Trio – James Elroy
'Set in early 50s so represents 50s attitudes. Less PC language. Really good. LA Confidential is
the second book and most well known.'
Hangman & Hunter – Jack Heath
'First book set up the premise for future books. It felt forced and awkward. Slightly better in
second book. Very gruesome but also slightly more funny. Set in the FBI.'
Why Grizzly Bears Should Wear Underpants – Oatmeal
'Very funny. Enough said.'
The Tattooist of Auschwitz – Heather Morris
'True story written as fiction. Very moving and eye-opening. Set in WW2.'
