What are we reading in April?

How is it April?!?!

I read loads of great books in March...will forever more bang on about how fab Kindle is.

Just started The Stepson by Jane Renshaw.

The first page had me hooked.

Just finished another T. M Logan - Lies, and am about to start on The Holiday. Didn't catch it on telly so no idea what it's about - I do like his writing though

Has anyone read any Lucy Diamond?

[miasmum]

I like T M Logan too, have you read The Catch?

I have read several Lucy Diamond Gal, I like them.

I am reading Because of You by Dawn French. I bought it for a friend for Christmas and she has passed it my way.

[Gal2]

Yes Shell, The Catch was the first of his I read, very good. Anne (aqua pal) put me on to Lucy Diamond but I'm not sure if she may be a bit 'safe' for me, I'll see.

I have read the DF one also

Be interested to know your thoughts on the Dawn French book Gal.

I know what you mean about Lucy Diamond, but they are well written and not chick lit.

Have you read any Lisa Jewell? I love her books albeit the last one wasnt her best

I’ve read Lucy Diamond’s Beach Cafe books and really enjoyed them.

I’ve not read Lisa Jewell’s latest but have a few of her’s on my Kindle ready to be read.

I’ve started The Likely Resolutions of Oliver Clock by Jane Riley. It’s pretty good so far.

I like Lucy Diamond, and Lisa Jewell I haven't been able to concentrate to read lately, but hopefully I can get back into it now.

Well according to my Goodreads reviews, not a lot!! I'll see if I can copy and paste it here....


I spent a lot of time skipping pages and pages of what seemed like nothingness, too descriptive, too slooooww, nothing actually happening, until about three quarters through. I’m not sure why I stuck with it, it seemed a bit of a chore, to be honest, but that last quarter - it made up for the first three, and how!

Lots of unanswered questions however, I’m not sure how a couple of things could be overlooked ( I don’t want to give spoilers) but that aside, I’m giving it 4 stars for the overall story.

Maybe you'll see it differently

Yes I have read at least one Lisa Jewell - I Found You I think it was called.

Gal I felt the same, completely improbable especially the ending.
