Sheena's First Four Books

These are my first four books. I am now re reading books and actually enjoying that. I have raked many of the books out and now have a massive pile to get through. No buying new books for me for a while.









Another stonker about the WMC. I love those books, always fresh and the endings seem to lead you into the next book effortlessly.




The Roy Grace novels of Peter James are superb and this, his latest, is no exception. His plots are tightly woven with his own personal life intertwined. Add to this the snapshot of Brighton - where the books are set - and you have a superior type of detective fiction.




A great wee book of mostly Scottish witticisms which fits neatly into you bag to take out anywhere and make you smile. It is also a lovely reminder of my childhood as many of the sayings were everyday words of my Grandparents.


usually really like this author but I found this book a bit "messy". Too many characters flitting in and out and the plot line slightly convulated. However a good read all in all.
