Slow burner, took me a while to get into and nothing much 'happens', but I really enjoyed it.What did you think of it?
I've been enjoying Simenon's Maigret detective novels. they're mostly all short and easy reads.I think I am in danger of not meeting my target for the first time ever
Will rethink for next year because I know I've avoided reading some longer books in the last couple of months because I really want to get to my total.
Any recommendations for good, short books?
You could always do what I did at the beginning of the year and read what are essentially pamphlets. I'm not going to get to my target of 40, either. It's taken me a long time to get through this Irvine Welsh one, it's a bit of an epic tbf. My original target was 10 though so I've not done bad.I think I am in danger of not meeting my target for the first time ever
I've only read the Morrow books myself, maybe imposs1904 knows?Cheers inva.
I think we have similar reading tastes so I'll check them out.
Will start to work my way through Denise Mina's Paddy Meehan series too - are they as readable as the Alex Morrow ones?
