Better by the second - a celebration of books which against all the odds have just one sequel
This weekend, I'm publishing Death Comes In With The Tide. This is my sequel to Death Sees Most Of the Game and the first sequel I’ve ever written. It's so new that the GoodReads link doesn't work yet, so bear with this clunky link for now:

To celebrate, I decided to blog about sequels. In the cinema world, the list of great sequels is well-esta Read more of this blog post »

Over the Rainbow: Tales from an Unexpected Year:
"Blur bassist Alex James has a lot of plates spinning. Not only did he reunite with one of the biggest bands in history for a whirlwind tour and a new album, but he organised his yearly Feastival, wrote a book and kept life as a dad-of-five on the go."

| I liked this. I don’t even rate Blur that much – although I was a student in the Nineties and there for Britpop at its height, I was more into the disco revival then, and now that my teenage children are discovering Britpop for themselves, I prefer t ...more | |

A Court of Thorns and Roses (A Court of Thorns and Roses, #1):
"An illiterate 19 year old straight up kills a guy and is outraged when there are consequences. Her punishment is living in a mansion with a hot mayor and hanging out with his friend, the nicest guy in the world and the only character I care about in "

"Mary Stewart is - by far - my favorite author in the romantic suspense genre. Nine Coaches Waiting is my favorite Mary Stewart book. I can't tell you how many times I've re-read this book. It's not terrifically deep or mysterious, but it's well-writt"

I'm a huge fan of all Bill Bryson's travel books, to the extent that I dare not read them on public transport because they make me laugh too much. This one combines his usual humour and observation with a wilderness adventure. For me, living in Engla ...more |

| Another classic Patricia Wentworth reread for me. I love these cosy vintage detective stories and am generally very forgiving of their faults, but I'm giving this one just two stars partly for the disappointing romance element (always a very importan ...more | |

| Mary Stewart's wonderful series of romantic suspense novels takes in, along with various parts of the British Isles, France, Austria, and the Middle East but she always seems at her most lyrical when writing about Greece, a country she clearly knew a ...more | |

I TRIED. But I just couldn't get on with this book. I'm not a gamer, but it wasn't that - I quite enjoyed the descriptions of the various games. I think most readers and writers of novels can appreciate the creativity that goes into world-building. I ...more |

| I wanted to like this - no, I wanted to love it. In theory, an Agatha Christie I hadn't yet read (and I've read them all, dozens of times). It also has that light, comic touch of some of my favourites of Christie's early thrillers (The Secret of Chim ...more | |
