The Lady in the Rivers is the third in the series you have the Red Queen and and The White Queen both fantastic great women (The War of The Roses series) Before The Tudors. I love how Phillipa portrays all the women from Henry's wives to Hannah I do fall in love with the characters. Can't you tell I am a huge fan of Phillipa.

Rushden

Well, I always have Lord of the Rings on the go, just to go back to when in the mood to get engrossed. Earth Abides by George R Stewart is another kept close by. Not into detective novels, love stories or anything overfactual.

Other than that a local author has given me a manuscript to read and I have given him one too. Always love to be the first "outsider" to read and pass judgement on a new author or book.

Karen Rose - I can see you

Its ok, but what annoys me about her books is that the leading lady and the cop always fall in love, they guys previous wives have always died of tragic circumstances and they always have constant hard ons every time they look at the heroine. Pisses me off that its the same formula in every bloody book.

Resurrectionist by James McGee.

Book two of a trilogy about a Bow Street Runner, a veteran of Wellingtons army.

Anyone who's read the Sharpe books will see a similarity in some of the characters.

Its set in the London of the early 1800's, very dark and atmospheric, would adapt well to T.V.

I picked up a load of chick lit to read on my week off next week. I don't need anything heavy going as I'm supposed to be relaxing and stress free so a couple of bonk busters and a few by my favourite authors - although I couldn't resist a new one (to me) by Tess Gerritsen (not chick lit or easy lighthearted but a bloody good author).
