I only found this now. Great idea. I will only start at what Im reading now as I haven't a clue what I've read since the start of the year, Ive just been picking up reading material for a while havent found any great books in the last couple of weeks
Tina Reily- The Onion Girl.

Tina Reily is a really good writer, but her stories are very predicable and not very intresting. good beach read I suppose. This was the second of her books I have read and will not be reading any more.

Next up- The Keeper- Sarah Langan

Had the potential of being a brilliant book but the last 4 or 5 chapters let it down greatly.
Must start reading actually intresting books.

Next Jeffery Deaver- The Sleeping Doll.

Finished "The sleeping doll" a couple of days ago. A great book although I'm finding it hard now to recall the story in detail. The charcters are very well developed and there are a lot of unpredicable twists and turns which is hard to do well these days. Will be reading more of Jeffery Deaver when I have a chance.

Tess Gerritsen- The Apprentice- Second book of hers I have read and a good read. Was a bit grusome in places, but very descriptive.
