Re: What are you reading?
Finished Peter Clines - 14. Difficult to classify, definately mystery, maybe thriller with a fair bit of fantasy. Whatever it is one hell of a page turner.
Just started Marcus Sakey - Brilliance. My usual scifi fare.

Re: What are you reading?
Reading Sacre Bleu by Chrisopher Moore at work, not as funny as some of his other stuff but still fun.

James P Hogan - Inherit the Stars
Book 1 of The Giants Trilogy.
Seems to be a variation on the old ancient astronauts theme, but is nicely written and is turning out to be a bit of a page turner

Practical Demonkeeping by Christopher Moore at work.
Odd Thomas by Koontz in the evenings. No-one does creepy like Koontz and not a godforsaken Golden Retriever in sight!

Re: What are you reading?
The Martian - Andy Weir.
Apollo 13 meets Castaway (on Mars).
Excellent book, well written, and occasionally very funny - I read it start to finish today.

Re: What are you reading?
Summer's Child by Diane Chamberlain.
I like her style of writing very much like Jodi Picoult style.
