Been to library this morning and got.. Mo Hayder Wolf, Minette Walters Acid rain, Belinda Bauer Finders Keepers, Nele Mahaus Big bad wolf .....
Wow, Kimberley, excellent haul! Don't know Nele Mahaus.
Nele Nehaus** sorry spelling mistake there! Christine, she is a German best-selling thriller writer, I've only read one of hers before 'Snow White must die' , which I thought was good so snapped this one up as not a lot of her books are translated! :)
Neuhaus**** oh dear I'll get there in the end!! LOL

You did really well at the library,Kimberley. Lots of great authors.
I have Snow White Must Die here to read as well:)Have had it for about a week now.

Holy Cow, Janet, did you read the ..."
I like that nickname Chris. It suits me.
The Crucifix Killer was good. I really like the cop in Carter's series, Robert Hunter. Crush material!! And yes, Jack Kerley's The Hundredth Man was very good too.
I just bought Shane Steven's By Reason of Insanity and Anvil chorus. According to the reviews, By Reason of Insanity sounds like something "This Queen of Deranged" can really get into.
Jack Kerley, aka J.A. Kerley ( why don't authors stick to one name ) books are mostly all good.Deon Meyer's books are also worth checking out. Set in South Africa.
I know Ty, sometimes it can get confusing.
Gosh, I am soooo far behind!!!!!CT......did you say Ter'e and MOTHER in the same sentence????? LOL.
Yes darling, I am older. I am THE MOTHER!
Guess what came to visit me yesterday????? Chelsea Cain's Evil At Heart!!!!!
hahahahahahaha can't wait.
Right now, I am sleeping my way thru my Baldacci book. OK.......but, man, I need some BODIES!
I also have that series to read Ter'e...Mother!

Hey, Mom!! What Baldacci book is lulling you to sleep? Hope it isn't Split Second.
Ter'e, I'm behind---I keep buying, but I have been working around the clock.

Christine; these jobs are coveted around the states, and we don't even get paid that much. I am on OT for one company; but not the BIG GUNS ( YET).

The Closers

Wow, Sandy, nice haul. Several of them are on my lists.
LOL it sounds funny hearing about the Amazon Spring Sale in October when we have the Amazon Autumn Sale. Yesterday I picked up two more. Shopaholic & Baby and High Society.
Christine wrote: "Wow, Sandy, nice haul. Several of them are on my lists."Because She Loves Meis group read for one of my groups, and the others just appealed to my macabre reading taste!
Sandy; you have been doing wonderful shopping: they sound good.

At least after sorting out my books last week, hopefully no duplicates now.
Andy Weir.. The Martian
Erica Spindler.. Shocking Pink

The Martian is a fantastic book Sean!!!
The martian is my best read of the year, so far.
Thanks Sean for telling me to read creep, really enjoyed it
Rhian...Sean and I LOVED CREEP. Go ahead and read FREAK.
I hadn't heard of that sue, I'm gonna look it up right now
Sue, you should just make a list in alphabetical order ( by authors' names) and I will happily copy and paste.
Mod
Creep
the sequel Freak
and her new book
The Butcher
Skye wrote: "Sue, you should just make a list in alphabetical order ( by authors' names) and I will happily copy and paste."Skye, just go to orderofbooks.com and type in the author and when it comes up , you select it and have a full list of the books that the author has written, based on publication date, which ones are standalone etc. I do this and print off the list for those authors that I read a lot of their books.
FYI

I am doing the same and ticking which ones I have and which ones I have read !
Sean wrote: "SueI am doing the same and ticking which ones I have and which ones I have read !"
This is what I do Sean. I keep track of the books I have, and ones I need to get over time. I also use it every time someone in the group mentions a new author that I have not heard of, so I can research it. For the authors I read from frequently, I have a printed list to check back on. I really find this is useful.
