Not having to buy and find room for yet another bookshelf in my tiny house (0 more)
I struggle to read in the sun on my kindle fire (0 more)
I love my kindle - it's my second after I dropped and smashed my first one - I have a whole wall of books in my lounge and couldn't possibly fit another book on there so now I read on my kindle and no longer have to take over another wall for books. I like how you can download a sample of a book I'm unsure about. Some books are free, some can be borrowed then returned once read and the rest are cheaper than a standard book. I like how it tells me what % I am through the book and how much longer each chapter is so I can gauge wether I have time to get another chapter in quick! Couldn't be without it now!

A short story about Will's undercover adventure that occurs between books 6 and 7 of the series. The first chapter was jam-packed full of action. It was a quick read and while each discovery surprised me, I felt it was lacking something - but I'm used to the full-length stories, so maybe that's just my problem.

This is one of those books that start slow and slowly builds pulling you in a little more each chapter. Some don’t like slow books but if you give it the chance it’s an excellent series. This first book was great and each book in her series gets better and better. I couldn’t put them down and I’ve re read this series a few times now while waiting for the next book to come out.

One of the few books in which Terry Pratchett collaborated with another author (in this case, Neil Gaiman), this is also one of the few non-Discworld books that he co-wrote for adults.

Heavily borrowing from 'The Omen', this novel concerns itself with a (possible) Armageddon scenario, including the four Horsemen (bikers) of the Apocalypse. As is usual for a Pratchett book, it also contains many footnotes in each chapter, and more than once had me laughing out loud!

I love Karin Slaughter novels and this one did not disappoint!

Her books are gripping, full of emotion and the intensity begins with the opening chapter and doesn’t let go until the end.

This is a stand alone novel and I read it in two sittings.

Thank you NetGalley for providing me with the opportunity to read and review this book.
