Good Afternoon, earlier this week I finished reading Lynda La Plante’s THE RED DAHLIA. I really enjoyed this book it moved along at a great pace never a wasted word. This is the middle one of three that she has written about Anna Travis. Anna is a great character I am sure you will like her she seems to get herself in a right trachle at times. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who likes a thriller.
I don’t know about you but when I finish a book and go to start a new one I feel a bit like a child in a sweetie shop choosing what to read next. Stuart always thinks it strange as I can finish one book and within minutes start the new one. So after all that what will I be reading next ………I have found a new author or rather Stuart has (he read the first chapter of one of this authors books in Waterstones on Monday) and thought it was very good. I had a look around the book shops and found both of his books. His name is Sam Bourne and the book I am reading is called The Righteous Men. I have read the first one hundred pages and it is a very unusual story. I was needing a bit of a change from the usual thriller so we shall see. That’s it for now hope you are enjoying whatever you are reading. Red Dahlia gets 8/10.
Love Joan.

I`m very much the same Joan, when I finish a really good book I love to browsw for ages until the right book comes along. Sometimes I feel as though the book has become like a friend to me and I miss it when its finished. The Red Dahlia sounds like a great read. :o)
