Just started this, very interested to see what Lizbeth gets up to with this author, her Jana Kippo books were great so I’ve high expectations on this

Currently part way through one of the Reacher books, it’s good

What I’m reading today, only a few pages in and I’m already hooked, this is the story of a man trying to give up being an assassin to concentrate on his family. In doing so he takes on more challenging assignments and puts his family at risk. 📚💙

He’s just another power hungry Dick tater..

This week I’m reading The Traitor, nothing to do with the awful TV program, it’s about a Norwegian detective, Wisting, I’ve read several of John Lier Hirst, Wisting books, another Scandi writer that never fails to keep you turning the pages. 💙📚

About half way through this in the Jackson Brodie series by Kate Atkinson, A Murder Mystery weekend, missing artwork, complex characters in the mix, all getting Jackson’s attention while contemplating his own midlife malaise.📚💙📚

I’ve loved several of The Brodie books, this could be the best yet.

My back gave up on me at the weekend, digging at the allotment, Oh to be young and fit again, even lifting a carton of milk is painful, so I’m flat on my back listening to Gabrielle Glaister narrating this gem.

Enjoy your book on #WorldBookDay
I’m certainly enjoying
W M Cravens, ‘Dead Ground’ a Detective Washington Poe thriller, I’d definitely recommend this series of books.

This is the book of the TV series ‘Virdee’ about a detective in Bradford, I’ve enjoyed it as I love reading about places I’m familiar with, as expected the TV series and book do differ but that’s to be expected but don’t be put off it’s a great read and I’m hoping there’s a sequel to both.

Just finishing’Forget Me Not’ by M J Arlidge, it’s one of the DI Helen Grace crime novels which I can definitely recommend, the books are a great read and will keep you turning the pages as she leads her team to solve crime in Southampton.

The ‘Charlie Parker’ series by John Connolly are definitely worth a read, in this a mother is suspected of murdering her son, Charlie working for the Lawyer investigates with the help of his eclectic associates & a frumpy middle aged medium with extraordinary powers they search for the truth. 📖📚💙

They look like they might benefit from a bit of pruning, it’s still not too late, cut spindly branches back by about a third, allowing the tree to grow stronger branches to carry fruit.

Most readers will be familiar with Mark as the author of the ‘Detective Tom Thorn’ books but If you’ve not read Marks latest detective ‘DCI Declan Miller’ books I’d definitely recommend them, well thought out plots delivered with humour and twist that will keep you turning the pages.

Get a composter for the kitchen waste, it’s amazing how quickly you fill it with egg shells, potato peelings, cabbage/ cauliflower leaves, coffee grinds etc Newspaper and cardboard can also be added. Add directly to your compost bin or dig a trench and burry into your beds.

Waterstones in Bradford,Yorkshire, probably the best looking bookstore in the world. But then I’m biased.📚❤️

Yes, I had a weekend of digging over a few beds, plus some more temporary repairs to my damaged poly tunnel, so today I’m sat on the sofa with a W.M.Craven book wondering if my backache will subside enough for me to cook some food.
It’s no fun being old.
