The girl on the landing by Paul Torday

I've just read Dissolution, the first in a series about Matthew Shardlake. Lawyer working for Thomas Cromwell, investigating murder at a monastery. Really enjoyed it.

When I was up at night breastfeeding DS3 I read the whole Wallander series - I don't normally read crime novels but I stayed awake because I really wanted to find out what happened and was too tired to concentrate on anything more literary

Thank you valium, have downloaded a sample of that one.

Maillotjaune, I've read all of the Shardlakes, they are absolutely brilliant - loved them. In fact dh hid my kindle on one holiday as I wouldn't be parted from them!

Oooh, I might give Wallander a go in that case - kindles didn't exist the last time I was up all night breastfeeding, but can see how it'd be easier to read and feed with a kindle, so I'll give it a try

Have you read The Poison wood Bible?

I have - I loved it, although couldn't get on with her latest one at all.

Oh I've not read it.

My cousin Rachael

Tide line is good.

Currently reading Nutmeg

If you like Philippa Gregory, have you read Wolf Hall?

Yes, I have tumble, and found it a bit of a challenge to get through, although I did enjoy it. MIL has lent me Bringing Up the Bodies, which I might take on hols with me.

I just stayed up half the night finishing "ketchup clouds". Supposedly a teen book but I absolutely loved it.

A teen with a terrible secret, so she writes to a man on death row.

I sobbed buckets.

Have you read 'The Fault In Our Stars' by John Green?
Aimed at a teen audience I think, but one of the most moving books I've ear in a while.

Try ' Emerald' by Rosemary Smith. Is aimed at young adults and over, great plot, lots if exciting stuff and some really quirky characters - won't say too much, will spoil the surprise!

Some Philippa Gregorys are currently 99p on Kindle, though you may have already read them of course.

And I'll second The Fault In Our Stars. Magic.

Ineedaliein - I've got Ketchup Clouds, wasn't sure what to make of it, but I think I may have to read it soon after what you've said.
