During the week I read 5 books:
What the **** Is Normal?! by Francesca Martinez - we are reading this for Book Club and I enjoyed it a lot. Funny and poignant and interesting. I'm going to try and get a ticket to see her stand up comedy show at Edinburgh Fringe.
Miss Webster and Cherif by Patricia Duncker - I bought this from a second hand book shop in Robin Hoods Bay. A good read, intelligent and moving - a quick and easy read.
The Connoisseur by Magda Sweetland - this has been on my book shelf for ages and I first read it years ago. I enjoyed rereading it as it is set in Edinburgh and North Berwick - it was good but the ending was a bit flat.
Suicide Excepted by Cyril Hare
My Name Is Michael Sibley
These two are typical old Penguin Crime - 1930's to 1950's. I like a good 'whodunit' / classic crime - nothing gruesome, get the murder over at the beginning then a complex plot to solve.
