Have you read any of them, Harry?

Yes, I have. The first few books in the series are excellent. Goes downhill rather after that. But I highly recommend the first few.

Thanks, Harry. I've bought the first five. Note that the first one, Postmortem, is in their October £0.99 selection already, and so doesn't appear in the 'today-only' list.

I read them as they came out, but stopped about 10 or 11. Like Harry, I think the first few were the best, although they would be dated tech-wise now. They did start to go downhill quite a bit, which was the reason I stopped. At the time, they were big with a lot of my nurse and doctor friends.

Today's 99p deal is a whole bunch of girlie romances, by Adele Park, Millie Johnson, Sheila O'Flanagan, and Cecelia Ahern. Not my cup of tea, but I'm sure they'll appeal to some

Today we have a selection of crime novels by Harlan Coben, Michael Connelly, and Linwood Barclay.

Thanks Harry

I picked up Trust your eyes and The Poet

soulfuldog · 10-17-2013, 08:36 AM

In a way I'm glad I missed yesterdays books as I'd have been too tempted by Coben & Connelly books. Thankfully I've already got most of the books from today's offer (Stieg Larsson, Lisa Gardner, Chris Ewan), but I have one Camilla Lackberg book that I've not read yet and there are 4 available today..... not sure whether to buy them or not.

At this rate I'll have nothing left to spend my Christmas gift voucher on. Too many good sales before then!

The Lackberg book is extra good value being 2 books in the one volume

picked it up along with Safe House

soulfuldog · 10-17-2013, 02:23 PM

Never even noticed that.... you've convinced me too

I picked up Safe House in a Kindle sale last year, it's well worth the 99p!

HarryT · 10-18-2013, 10:45 AM

Romances are on offer today and over the weekend. Books by Kate Mosse, Judy Finnigan, Maggie O'Farrell, Victoria Hislop, Louise Candlish, Kathy Kelly, and Santa Montefiore. 9 books in total. At least I think they're romances. Some of them may have a crime/supernatural element to them too, looking at the blurbs.

soulfuldog · 10-18-2013, 03:43 PM

At first glance they all look like romance, but I think they are more mystery/suspense books with stories about family secrets and scandals.... all popular female authors anyway.

Got to say, been very impressed with this Sainsbury's sale.

bookaho!ic · 10-19-2013, 03:53 PM

thanks Guys, in the sale at the beginning of my hols on 5 October got all the game of thrones series as that was the daily sale, and managed to purchase 5 more books on hols... darn these sales,

I did not get any today as have read labyrinth but did not enjoy it enough to purchase sepulchre.

looking forward to Mondays deals

my OH has said i am now spending more on my books than he does on his daily steam sales - time to get my own back
