I enjoyed Jeffery Archer's books.Always a good read.
Recent books I have read; ...

The Reckoning by John Grisham.Well Grisham has let his fans down with this one,.

Don't tell me that, I have not read it yet, have it to read, Liked all his books except Painted House, the one where he stepped away from his main story telling "theme"

Found a Bernard Minier “Don’t Turn out the Lights” at the Tip Shop yesterday .....cost 50 cents

Very busy was the Tip Shop with plenty if Xmas presents being bought

“Don’t Turn out the Lights” was quite enjoyable

Took it back to the Tip Shop for somebody else to enjoy

While there bought a book on the history of lighthouses built on rocks around the UK.....”Seashaken Houses” for 50 cents. Really fascinating how they built some of them.

Well the last couple of weeks have been a disaster for me.Ordered a book I have already read.Getting other books out I have already read,and giving up on a number of books,including one by Peter James,"Absolute Proof". Have not returned it yet,so may try again.
Luckily I have enjoyed Barry Maitland's; The Raven's Eye.
Have three more books out from the library including another by Barry Maitland,so will see how they go.

The Reckoning by John Grisham.Well Grisham has let his fans down with this one,.

OK have read it now, yes perhaps he should keep to his "expertise", didn't know I was going to get a war story in the middle.
OK overall, granted not his best work ever and as I said the middle was too long and drawn out in my view

Sorry I put you off it.Agree the war story was too much.
I am currently struggling with Gerald Seymour's Battle sight Zero.
Seems a good read but does not flow.
I have recently read two books by James MacManus; Midnight in Berlin, and Sleep in Peace tonight.
Enjoyed both,so will look to read more of his books.
