Default My latest read

I usually only read physological thrillers or horror books like stephen King or James Herbert or Kathy Reichs...I also like a bit of the horse racing novels by Dik Francis and such like...but lately I have gotten into chick lit....and completely loving this turn of read...the last book I read was HIS OTHER LOVER by Lucy Dawson which was superb and the latest book I am reading is FATAL ATTRACTION by Carol Smith..Not the bunny boiling film one but its quite similar although has different twists...I actually picked this book up to start reading on sunday morning and couldnt put it down till nearly after lunchtime and had got over halfway through it it is that good.....Would recommend both titles to all if you like that kind of read
*I also recommend LOSING YOU by Nicci French*

I love reading but I like the classics - Dickens, CS Lewis and so on - actually tho am a bit of a wimp these days and can't read anything too sad cos it depresses me!!

I know think I was a bit taken over by Stephen King...i just used to read him all the time and not really care about any other authors it was only over past year or so that I have been getting into James H and other people.....needed to vary my reading....mind you LISEYS STORY by S.King was quite different to his usual writings...that was fab.....heard of Terry Prattchet but never read any...funny enough got given one of his books by a friend a few years back and it just got tossed aside.
