Cool, looking forward to your thoughts on Red Rising. Loved it!
I *loved* that book! Review coming soon. ๐
I’m also intrigued to know what you’ll make of Red Rising – I haven’t read any Mark Kloos, and am unsure just how dark he is, so I’ll also be keen to read your take on Terms of Enlistment. Happy reading and have a great bank holiday week-end:)
Hello there, still have to finish Kloos, but I think you might like him – while dark, he has a dry humour that I really appreciate. Happy bank holiday to you – I look forward these three days to get some writing done ๐
I’m really lucky to have a week-long break, given that it’s half term and I’m determined to try and finish editing BREATHING SPACE! I’ll look out for Kloos – many thanks for the recommendation. Best of luck with the writing:)
Thanks, and happy editing ๐
I loved “Portrait of a Killer” when I read it in 2002. Cornwell presents a strong case, but I doubt that case will ever be truly closed. I also enjoyed “Oryx and Crake.” It is the first novel in a trilogy. I plan to read the second novel this year. Happy reading! Cinda
Thanks Cinda, almost done with Cornwell, and it’s absolutely fascinating. A non-fiction that reads like one. Will let you know about the other. ๐
