Thank you @jenniferw88 for sending the latest #whodunituk book, and for the note, the tips were appreciated. And thank you for the goodies! Was just feeling a bit sorry for myself about going to work tomorrow (I don‘t work Mondays so Monday nights are my Sunday nights) and they cheered me right up!

I won't reveal too much as I don't want to spoil it for other members of the group, but @LoveToReadLiveToRead I expect I'll send September 17thish.

Also second book for #bookaweekchallenge @TheReadingMermaid

Like most thrillers, this is a little predictable but still an enjoyable and entertaining read. It kept me engaged till the end. Thanks @daydreamin_star for choosing this book for #whodunituk 👍🏻

I read this book for #whodunituk . Thanks so much for selecting this, @daydreamin_star ⭐️. This book could equally have been part of the #MHRoundRobin , as it was a mystery in which the mental health of the protagonist played a large role.

It wasn‘t a perfect book but I enjoyed it, which always earns a Pick from me! 😃

Thanks again for organising the group, @ScorpioBookDreams .

Fairly flying through this book now. Half way through-ish, page 157, chapter 27. That good that I bought another 2 books by CLTAYLOR last night and then once I‘ve read those might buy the other 2 that I‘ve left to read. Think I‘m going through a faze where if I like something I have to purchase every other book by that author. So far so good. 👍🏻 had me hooked off chapter one.

Bought this last year but actually read the fear first by c.l Taylor. The fear was brilliant so I hope this is just as good. Finally!!!! Got round to picking up this actual paperback book 📚 and reading. Nice to have a little break from the kindle.

I finished this audiobook last week and I am so glad that I decided to read it! I loved The Lie by her and it was just as good. It is clear to see that C.L. Taylor knows how to write a compelling and utterly addictive thriller.
With a narrator who felt untrustworthy but also with moments that did not add up, it really makes the reader keep reading to find out what is going on.
I honestly can not recommend C.L. Taylor more.

Kayleigh12 Glad you enjoyed. I‘ve read one of her other books and quite enjoyed it. 6y

Più tardi la mia opinione sul blog, ma: non sarò la sola a dire qualcosa riguardo oggi! 😄😁

Really strong, page-turner for about 75%, tapered off a bit at the end where the ending was just too neat and tidy. I will try another one by the author though.

BeckyK I looked at this but couldn't decide whether to try it or not! 7y
Reggie Have you ever read Alex Marwood? I've read one that was supposed to be a thriller, but everyone was very charming, even the killer. The Killer Next Door. 7y
TrishB @Beckykearns if you like thrillers you will like. I just thought ending was a bit rushed/ neat & tidy. I would read the author again so it hasn't put me off! 7y

TrishB @Reggie I haven't! I guess you're not really recommending them then ? 😀 7y
BeckyK @TrishB I'll have a read then :) 7y
Reggie It was ok, the writing is great, but you go in expecting thriller and come out with a group you'd have tea with its just not what I thought. She's alright. 7y
TrishB @Beckykearns let me know what you think! 7y
TrishB @Reggie may look out for in the sales or charity shops! 7y
BeckyK @TrishB Will do :) 7y
MyNamesParadise I really enjoyed Before I Wake by her! I think the U.K. title is The Accident. 7y
TrishB @MyNamesParadise Will be trying others 😀 7y
aprocrastinatingreader The Lie was a good one. And The Missing. Agree with your review on this one 7y

Off to bed with this creepy, psychological thriller! My heart is pounding along with the MC and I don't really have a clue yet what's going on! A real page-turner!

Home alone today (so rare!). Left hand pile purchases from Tesco, right hand pile charity shop haul! I lent my copy of The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas to someone in work and have asked for it back twice........so its acceptable to buy another isn't it!

thegirlwiththelibrarybag 1000% acceptable. 7y

Andrew65 I loved The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas. Do need to try C L Taylor. A good haul! (edited) 7y
TrishB @DeborahSmall I know! £5 for a hardback, bargain😀 7y
TrishB @Andrew65 Haven't read any C L Taylor as yet, but like giving new mystery writers a go! 7y
DeborahSmall Yeah 4 hardbacks (d0. One of the ones I got was Behind Her Eyes and it was a great read. Also Trophy Girl and The Girl Before (I think) can't remember other title. We use Sainsbury's mostly for groceries so I love a visit to Tesco, husband.. not so much! 7y
Andrew65 @TrishB Mystery, thrillers and Suspense books would be my favourites, along with historical fiction. Love a good mystery. 7y
TrishB @DeborahSmall no hubby or kids today!! I got these and one arrived from Amazon.....the evidence is already filed away 😀😀 7y
TrishB @Andrew65 snap 😀 7y
DeborahSmall Brilliant! My hubby was commentating the football on radio today but I needed him to pick a couple of parcels up at sorting office first so I have those to look forward to when he's home 💕 7y
Donna_sBookMinute Looks like some great finds. The last time I loaned a book at work reminded me why I had stopped doing it. I had to ask for it repeatedly; and it was finally returned . . . unread. Now, I won't loan a book to anyone who is not an avid reader. I've concluded that only those who respect books and love reading will actually read a book and return it. 7y
TrishB @Donna_sBookMinute exactly 😀👍 7y
MyNamesParadise The Escape isn't available in the states yet 😭😭 7y
TrishB @MyNamesParadise It's normally the other way round- I'm usually very impatiently waiting for stuff to come out in the UK! 7y
MyNamesParadise @TrishB CL Taylor is a British author so sometimes it takes a while for British writers work to come out in the US! 7y

This is one of those books that has you so hooked that you can't read the pages fast enough. Brilliant. I was totally hooked from the first page. If you like a really good plot this is the book for you
