Books...The list continues...

So okay, I haven't blogged soon enough...AGAIN..but I was DOING things and y'know... Reading. So much so, that I am...nearly done with my Off The Shelf 2013 challenge which I have previously blogged about. So since my last challenge blog ,

I have not only finished:

The Overlook - again by Michael Connelly another Bosch novel which I do feel is great because it's like he's improving Bosch's character with every book - but also:

The Drop - also by Connelly - and ironically enough I had the next book in the list after The Overlook but went for this one which was his absolute latest Bosch novel but no harm done. Just went back and finished the other one, which was:

Nine Dragons - another Connelly book which means I have read all the Michael Connelly books on my shelf. RESULT! Now this was a great book because it gave the whole background to how his daughter came to live with him which was quite good since it tied up a few things from some previous/later books.






So I come to the next set of books - more mystery and whodunnits. This time it's Karin Slaughter - another awesome crime/mystery writer I love.

So the books are:

Blindsighted : Slaughter's debut novel about her character Sara Linton.. one of my favourites - even though I have many in this list.

Indelible : A few books along but still part of the Sara Linton series









I should be finished with these two and one other, I think, fairly soon since I don't think I have many of her books at present, after which next on my list will be the great Patricia Cornwell .....

The challenge continues....

Off The Shelf...Continued....

So. It has been absolutely ages since I blogged which doesn't bode well for the whole "I will blog more" policy I have tried to adopt. Ah well. Shall continue trying. The one thing that has happened certainly is I have finished more books as part of my Off The Shelf 2013 challenge. The last time I blogged about the challenge I mentioned I was going to read:

A Darkness More Than Night - Michael Connelly
The Mayor of Lexington Avenue - James Sheehan & finally
The Lincoln Lawyer - Michael Connelly

All 3 were absolutely brilliant and The Lincoln Lawyer was even better than the film and I kept imagining Matthew Mcconaughey saying all the dialogues and it was great.
After which I managed to ALSO finish:

The Brass Verdict  - Michael Connelly - the 2nd Mickey Haller novel - which was brilliant as usual - kept you on the edge of your seat all along. Apparently they're turning this into a film as well. Hope they keep the same main cast!

The Reversal - Michael Connelly - the next Haller book, this time though he's a prosecutor and a brilliant one but obviously. He teams up with his ex-wife and Bosch to make a brilliant team who you root for until the end.

The Fifth Witness - Michael Conn elly - The last Haller book and again absolutely brilliant - and this time Haller has associates and everything - and with a great twist at the end which is making me wait with bated breath for the next Haller novel. Hope it comes soon.







So I was going to go on to the next set of books but then realised I still had Michael Connelly books to get through and I know I said I was going to stick to different books since I didn't have all of the Connelly ones in order but then I thought, well, if that is the case then I'd never get a lot of books finished so have decided to continue with the Connelly books I have. So the next on my list are:

The Overlook and The Drop both by the great MC - so hopefully by the end of March I should have finished my challenge. I shall of course keep reading but perhaps not detailing it in blogs so much - and keep blogging in general!
