Like Sue, from Eating Well on a Small Budget, I simply can't pass a book stall without taking a peek. Whether it's a charity shop, a supermarket charity sale table or boot sale, I just have to check it out. I can't even pass a bookshop, even though I can't afford to pay full price!
I did splash out £12 😲on the latest Milly Johnson book from Sainsbury's last month because I keep all of her hardbacks to read again. I love Milly's style of writing very much......
but I paid just £1.50 from a charity shop for this one....
As you can probably tell from the photos, I like to read a couple of chapters at bedtime before I go to sleep, so it needs to be a gentle read. Tom Hindle's book is not a gory thriller but more a psychological murder mystery in the style of Agatha Christie. I'm really enjoying it 😊 and it doesn't adversely affect my sleep either! 😴
I enjoyed Tom's book so much that I popped into the library on Saturday and managed to track down a previous book to read next....
Bring it on!
Has anyone else read Tom Hindle? Did you enjoy it?
I've got a Jojo Moyes on order from the library too. There are some cracking books about right now and I want to read a lot more now that there's nothing I want to watch on TV.
Stay safe and well ,

There are loads of good authors and books around. I'm using my kindle apt, choosing free to read books. I'm reading Freida McFadden, she is a gentle story teller.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the hint as Tom Hindle is an author I don't know so will be reserving the first one from the library as soon as I can. Can't reserve any at the mo as I'm up to my limit of reservations or waiting to pick up and the mobile isn't here until next week.
ReplyDeleteI don't know how you get through so many books! I only reserve one at a time or I'd never finish anything!
DeleteThanks for the Tom Hindle hint. I will need to look up and see if he is available at our library.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
I enjoyed both books and there is a third I have yet to locate.
DeleteNot aware of Tom Hindle, I do like a good psychological thriller (although I don't mind blood and guts!) so I'll have a look in our library.
ReplyDeleteNo blood and guts in a Tom Hindle book, but a murder or two certainly :)
DeleteGlad to see what you are reading, right now. :)
ReplyDeleteI've never heard of Tom Hindle but I'll keep an eye out. I don't like violent novels and SF leaves me cold. I'm re- reading the Adams family stories by Mary Jane Staples at the moment, but have lots of TBR. Have a great weekend. Xx
ReplyDeleteThank you, Gill, you too :)
DeleteMy tbr list and pile is growing fast thanks to all the recommendations from everyone
ReplyDeleteI have to write down the names of authors or I'd forget in an instant!
DeleteI have not read any Tom Hindle books thank you for the suggestion. I really love Jojo Moyes and have read all her books. I am so pleased your son is doing well, and you enjoyed your treat out. Regards Sue H
ReplyDeleteJojo Moyes is brilliant, isn't she. I'm currently reading We All Live Here and thoroughly enjoying it.
DeleteThank you for your good wishes for my son. I do appreciate it x
I rarely read murder or detective style books, but funnily enough the few that I have read I have really enjoyed, it's just not a genre that I think of picking up, so I have never heard of Tom Hindle. I've just started reading a book Alan bought me while we were away, one of two that he got me from different places ... one of them full price £22 ... wow, that would be 22 books off the charity book table!!
ReplyDeleteIt's called Thea and Denise and is by Caroline Bond about two women that set out on a 'Thelma and Louise' style road trip. It'll be nice to read a bit of fiction for a change.
I hope you both have a lovely Bank Holiday weekend. xx
I don't often read murder books either and avoid the ones written by men as they are often too graphic for my taste, but Tom Hindle got me gripped. I don't know Caroline Bond so I'll check her out, thank you. £22 for a book...wow 🙃
DeleteEnjoy your long weekend too, you both deserve it xx
Tom Hindle is a new author to me but I think I would enjoy his books.
