One Good Turn

[altariel]

The only bad thing about having read One Good Turn by Kate Atkinson between getting my paws on it at five o'clock last night and finishing it up over the second cup of coffee at ten o'clock this morning is that: a). I'm knackered and b). now I have to find something else to read over the weekend. And where in this house will I find a book...?

So what is this book like?

Well, I loved it, but I'd read Case Histories by the same author *(Kate Atkinson) first, which is a murder mystery, and introduces the character of Jackson Brodie, her ex-army, ex-police private eye.

Ooh.

Case Histories was one of my favourite books of last year.

I concur! I've only just read it (on the plane over here, in fact), and I'm reading it again, immediately.

And I'll probably reread it when you get back.

That was good going! I'm glad you enjoyed it. I haven't managed to read Case Histories yet, after getting it in York, but I'm looking forward to it.

I sympathise with your problem of finding a book to read. You'll just have to do the usual: go out and get some more.

It'll be a struggle finding something to read, but I'm sure I'll manage somehow.

Hope you managed to find some reading matter lurking around somewhere.

I really don't know where to start...

Try closing your eyes and sticking in a pin?

In who?

[edge-of-ruin.livejournal.com]

As long as it's not Mr A

Voodoo on head chef verboten.

[edge-of-ruin.livejournal.com]

Absolutely!

I read it this week too! It probably took me longer than it took you because I had to go out and look at the sights of Florence and eat Florentine food in between lazing around with books.

Ah, duty calls...!

Welcome back and I hope you had a fabulous time.
