| Honestly could not continue to read this after I got half way through and it was still as bad as it was at the beginning. The constant "telling" and passive voice and characters using unnessecary dialogue. "Hello, Gary." "Hello, Cindy." "How are you ...more | |

| I've followed Flora's journey through several of Gardner's novels. I liked this one because she is helping D.D. Warren find out who is the guy her kidnapper met in a bar not living under his real name, and why he is murdered. The story is full of act ...more | |

| It's been a while since I read a Richard Jury novel. This one didn't disappoint. Characters are murdered we have only just been introduced to, though Jury has met the man before and liked him. The story of the street-wise kids who have helped policed ...more | |

| The premise of a woman who comes home to find another person living legally in her flat doesn't sound believable at first. But the flat belongs to the woman's boss, who is generously allowing it to be used by her with a nominal rent. It does make sen ...more | |

| This very short story was a wonderful read. The situation on the island is unusual. Is it dystopian? Is it horror? Is it historical? You'll have to read about these resilient children and their father and what happens on their little island. ...more | |

| I have loved most of Agatha Christie's books. I think I've read them all. This one was okay. Most of the stories were good. Some of them felt like they were rushed or just not up to her high standards. I recommend it anyway because I love her stuff. ...more | |

| What a good read. What a weird set up. There is a tunnel in which five teens disappeared. I found it hard to believe that a town full of grown-ups decide to smear the good name of the one kid who didn't disappear in the tunnel. It was hard to suspend ...more | |
