I'm just about coming to the end of Deborah Moggach’s book, Heartbreak Hotel. I found it a very enjoyable read and very amusing. But what should I read next? Any recommendations? 

I also wondered if anyone would be interested in a Club Together book club? According to a member survey earlier last year, reading is the most recurring leisure activity whilst caravanning. I know I’m a book worm and I’m sure there’s a few of us out there who enjoy a good read. Anyone interested or any suggestions?

I do like Rankin's books, just wish he would not try to educate me --  it's a pain on my Kindle yell

Just finished "A Politician's Wife by Sasha Swire the ghastly goings on of a former Devonshire MP (his wife writes the diary, he supplies the details) a really gossipy, sometimes funny and horrible account! Prince Charles, D Cameron, Boris J, Jerry Hall and a cast of millions, the knife is in for all of them...! wink

Have now read The Tattooist but couldn't understand the hype about it, and thought that The Librarian of Auscwitz a much better read.

It's still sitting on my Kindle, Nellie - Mrs M read it and enjoyed it.

I can recommend the Charlie Parker book though. 

Tomorrow I can, at last, pick up the final part of Hillary Mantel's Cromwell trilogy - I reserved it before the lockdown, think I was about number 80 in the queue and now it's waiting for me! smile

M, I'll no doubt get the Charlie Parker book sometime when our daughter drops it off, so with a little bit of luck it will be waiting at home when we finally get there.

Have completed the H.M. Trilogy and enjoyed them thoroughly. The last ones a time so hope your close to the car to carry it home when you pick it up!wink

Also enjoyed the HM trilogy.

 I will be interested to see how Lee Child’s character ‘Reacher’ evolves after watching yesterday morning’s TV chat with him and his brother Andrew Grant whom he is collaborating with as it was said his brother is to take over writing Reacher books completely in a few years.

I've not read any of  Andrew Grant's books but may try one sometime.

At present enjoying reading  "The Dentist" by Tim Sullivan, the first of his DS Cross series. It is based around Bristol and DS Cross has Aspberger's Syndrome which results in some humorous conversations.

In between reading my history book I'm keeping my murder count up by reading Craig Robertson's "Watch Him Die". The title sort of gives it away.sealed

A quick heads up....JD Kirk's A Litter of Bones is  FREE on Kindle till Sunday. It is the first in the series, so well worth downloading.
