What are you reading now 2

I recently finished "Moonflower Murders" by Anthony Horowitz, which is an Agatha Christie pastiche, featuring quirky private investigator, Atticus Pund, no prizes for guessing who he is based on. It's written in a book within a book format and the crime connects the two narratives. I enjoyed it.

I have Robert Galbraith's "Troubled Blood" waiting for me, my husband has just finished it he liked it a lot, it's quite a tome, nearly 1000 pages so I'm hoping Strike and Robin's relationship will have moved forward, but the end of it at least.

Richard Osman's book sounds quite good it's certainly riding high in the charts at the moment.

It is light hearted and a real pleasure.

The Ballad of Dorothy Wordsworth” by Frances Wilson, even with the gold writing on the cover which usually puts me off.
The relationship between Dorothy and her brother was unusually intense, she devoted her whole life to him, fascinating. get-mxplayer.in

I'm a third the way though Jodi Picoult's book Small Great Things, about a black nurse and a white supremacist in the US.

I've just downloaded The Thursday Murder Club but haven't yet started it. At the mo, I'm barrelling through Anne Cleeves' Vera books, having only just discovered her (the author, not the detective). I read all the Shetland books in a week. A box set of the Shetland series will be on my Christmas list for sure.

Suddenly after many years in the wilderness, I'm back to reading voraciously. This thread is GN gold - as they say.

Furret ! You owe us an explanation !

Callistemon you clearly didn’t get the reference to outside of Yorkshire or you wouldn’t have relied ‘perhaps because...’.

I clearly didn’t get it either. Why not enlighten us?

I didn't get it, sorry, and I still don't, really.

A week into lockdown God was spotted walking round Yorkshire. When asked what he was doing he said “Working from home “.

maggiemaybe don't you think that Alexander whatever his name is must be the most boring man outside of Yorkshire? ?

Outside of Yorkshire ? Explain?

Reading ‘The Bridled Tongue’ by Catherine Mayrick. Set in Elizabethan England, there’s an element of “Oh for Gods sake, get on with it!” about it, but I’ll stick with it.

Perhaps because he's always very pleasant and not acerbic.
He is a comedian too but perhaps Pointless pays well!

I enjoyed The Miniaturist, but wasn’t so taken with The Essex Serpent.

Agreed

He’s not the most charismatic, imho. Richard’s got a lot more about him.

I’ve read all but two, TerriBull, including the latest one. I know she’s not to everyone’s taste though. I usually like a bit more action myself, but always enjoy her writing.

I loved Clock Dance Maggie, always mean to read more Anne Tyler, I've only read a couple of hers so far, she writes about small town America very well.

Sorry, fevertree, I see now that you mentioned Richard Osman’s book first.
