I've been trying to rest my wrist these last few weeks, and travelling, hence the large number of titles here in a relatively short time.

Lots of blokes, again, and some of them missed the mark completely, for me. Does anyone know any good female thriller writers?
  • Last Man Standing by David Baldacci (didn’t finish)
  • The Bricklayer by Noah Boyd (didn’t finish)
  • 61 Hours by Lee Child (wonderful)
  • House of Leaves by Mark Z. Danielewski (astonishing)
  • Hard Rain by Barry Eisler (great)
  • Jumper and Wildside by Steven Gould (absolutely amazing)
  • Silence of the Lambs by Thomas Harris (brilliant)
  • Liar by Justine Larbalestier (also brilliant)
  • The Crime of Huey Dunstan by James McNeish (didn’t finish)
  • 1964: The Year of the Great Romance by Evelyn Schiller (actually just my grandmother’s diary of the year my parents’ met, but that’s what I’d call it if it were a book)
  • Uglies, Pretties, Specials and Extras by Scott Westerfeld (bubbly!)
