I have read three books now by Karin Slaughter and enjoyed every single one. After I read the first, I promised myself that I would catch up with the Grant County and Will Trent books, but here we are. I will do it, but when, I have no idea. Just so that it’s clear: if like me, you haven’t read the rest of the series, it won’t ruin your reading enjoyment. These books are so well written, that I didn’t feel as though I didn’t know what was going on.

This story based around Will Trent (a GBI agent) and medical examiner Dr Sara Linton, is as dark and unsettling as the other books I’ve read. When the GBI is called in to investigate the death of an inmate during a penitentiary riot, another inmate, Daryl Nesbitt, offers them information about a series of terrible attacks, sexual assaults and murders of women in Grant County. Murders and attacks which almost exactly mirror the murders that he was convicted of and that he claims that he didn’t commit. He claims that Sara’s dead husband, Chief of Police Jeffrey Tolliver, and his fellow officer, Lena Adams, framed him.

There is enough in what he says for them to start looking in to past cases and to follow up on a more recent death.

No matter how gore-filled these books are, it’s never done in bad taste. The characters have respect for the dead women (I don’t think I’m giving too much away when I say it’s ‘women’, as in ‘more than one’), and they, to some extent, treat suspects with restraint. I really liked the extended flashbacks to Jeffrey Tolliver. They’ve certainly made me want to read more of the Grant County books.

I’m really glad that The Pigeonhole have serialised the last couple of Karin Slaughter books, and selfishly, I really hope they continue to do so! If you’re already a fan of Karin Slaughter books, you’ll understand. If you haven’t read any yet, what are you waiting for?

If I could rate it higher than 10, I would!
I loved everything about this book: the style, the characters - everything. I found it gripping, I didn't want to put it down, but you know, real life. This is definitely one of my favourite books this year. I just want to know what happens next!
  
A good little pocket book with some interesting information and guidance on how to try and beat negative thoughts that seem to take over your life. For more in-depth help websites and other books are listed as a tiny book like this just about scrapes the surface on changing your perspective on life.

"This might be the best book I know of that describes restaurant culture. In general I am a very big fan of George Orwell, I could have selected half of the books on this list to be authored by him. But I particularly enjoy this one because it tells me something about my industry."

Work hard, and smart, don't just rely on talent
I'm always a little dubious about books in the self-help genre as 200 pages can be translated into one tagline. However, as a book, Grit is intelligently put together, with interesting research and anecdotes which was pleasant to read. You do need to use external resources that she provides from time to time, which I didn't do, so some of it may not make complete sense.

And unlike a lot of pretentious self-help books, Angela Duckworth is a pioneer in her field, and she keeps the self-congratulations to a minimum.
