Before operation Casa Scully I had just started on Penny Vincenzi's A Question of Trust. (Her last novel?)

During operation Casa Scully's kitchen renovation I came across Nigel Slater's Real Cooking stashed behind other cook books.

Hmmmmm.......reading both.

Just finished Jane Harper's third novel "The Lost Man", set in the Australian outback and a tale of relationships, love and revenge. A complete page turner and If you haven't read this talented authoress, do check her out. A Richard and Judy Book Club favourite.

Now started Felix Francis's "Crisis". Dick Francis's son, of course, so a horse-racing yarn, and whilst not quite as good as his father's thrillers, this is one of his better ones.

I've got about 15 minutes left to read of Ruth Hogan's Queenie Malone's Paradise Hotel.

This is her third book and I've loved the previous two, I've liked this but there's not a lot happened so it's got 15 minutes to redeem itself.

Just started this this morning whilst relaxing around the pool - rather appropriately, it's called "They Call Me the Cat Lady" by Amy Miller. Only a few pages in so not sure how it'll go, but the blurb sounded my type of story - I'll let you know
