September 9 is National Read A Book Day!
In general, cats like books because they make good places to sleep, but one never knows if they don't absorb the writing as they nap!
I've recently finished book #6 of the Cormoran Strike series, by Robert Galbraith, entitled "The Ink Black Heart"; fabulous!
Am currently re-reading the DCI Craig Gillard series by Nick Louth.
Other authors who have new books coming out this month:
Wrexford & Sloane series, by Andrea Penrose
DI Haskell & Quinn Crimes, by Bilinda P. Sheehan
Detective Clare Mackay series, by Marion Todd
What are you reading?
My old woman loves crime books, especially Ann Cleeves, Sharon Bolton and Belinda Bauer. She's from the UK, and they are all British authors. But she loves quirky books too and Victorian thrillers. In fact, she'll read anything! I hesitate to mention my own book Not So Sweet Toffee, available on Amazon!
ReplyDeleteI have Belinda Bauers Exmoor Trilogoy on my TBR list, and I'm a passionate fan of Elly Griffiths, and loved Ann Cleeves' Shetland Island book series. Have you read any Peter May books, or Anne Perry's William Monk series?
DeleteThanks for the tip on the new Galbraith! I totally missed that there was a new one. Just finished reading Magpie Murders and Moonlight Murders by Anthony Horovitz. I assume he is working on a third book.
ReplyDeleteOH! Anthony Horowitz, one of my FAVS!
DeleteI really enjoyed. Let me know when the next one is published. :-)
DeleteThose are lovely! I just found out that my favorite movie 'The Princess Bride' was a book first - how did I miss that?! I'll be reading that one. Enjoy your reads!
ReplyDeleteOh! The book is so very different from the movie; I read it when I was in college...a few years ago. *wink*
DeleteOoo, I just started the #6 Cormoran Strike book! Good to know you liked it. I finished binging the Ravenwood Mysteries series. I assume she's working on a book 10. At least I hope so!
ReplyDeleteYes, Sabrina Flynn is writing the next book. Hope you enjoy CStrike #6 as much as I did.
Delete#1 is sad because she has so little time to read at the moment.
ReplyDeletePurrs,
The Chans
Yeah, real life takes up lots of time.
DeleteThat first one is funny. I usually end up like that too. :)
ReplyDeleteIf it's a book, newspaper, or a piece of mail, a cat seems to need to use it as a perch, and will nap there if allowed!
DeleteI really like that first one two, that is so true!
ReplyDeleteA book is always a good place for a cat to set down upon.

ReplyDeleteI'm reading The 6:20 Man by David Baldacci
ReplyDeleteEvery day without fail, Travis Devine puts on a cheap suit, grabs his faux-leather briefcase, and boards the 6:20 commuter train to Manhattan, where he works as an entry-level analyst at the city's most prestigious investment firm. In the mornings, he gazes out the train window at the lavish homes of the uberwealthy, dreaming about joining their ranks. In the evenings, he listens to the fiscal news on his phone, already preparing for the next grueling day in the cutthroat realm of finance. Then one morning Devine's tedious routine is shattered by an anonymous email: She is dead.
Have a fabulous day. ♥
Nice! I like David Baldacci!
DeleteCurrently I am not reading other than periodicals,and a few other small stuff...wish I had more time. We do not lack for books here...hubby seems to be a book hoarder! LOL! (Except his books make good sleeping medicine for me.)
ReplyDeletecats are a very well read species
ReplyDeleteMy Josie loved books... Sigh...
ReplyDeleteToo cute! Happy reading, my dear.
