Oh well, this forum would be very boring if we all liked exactly the same books .

True! And while we often like similar books, we do vary on fantasy I've noticed over time. As I said, though, it might just have been where I was at when I read that first one. I have periods of reader's ennui where nothing seems to get higher than 3 stars, and it's usually not the books, but the reader.

Just started The Case of the Careless Kitten by Erle Stanley Gardner. This Perry Mason wasn't available in the Kindle store, so I bought a used paperback copy. I'm having trouble adjusting the font.

The pop-up dictionary is bad too. It works only no percent of the time.

Just finished The Late Show by Michael Connelly and it was a typically good Connelly book. Interesting, this was the first book by him that had a female protagonist and I think he did a very good job especially the last half of the book where things happen you didn't see coming. I'd give it four stars.

Finished "Reflex", by Dick Francis. Philip Nore is a steeplechase jockey with a passion for photography which helps him unravel a mysterious web of intrigue, blackmail and murder following the death of a ruthless racecourse photographer. Excellent. One of the best in the series so far.

Starting The Nix, an acclaimed book from 2016 and really liking it so far. I plan on working my way over the Booker Prize long list books as well before the winner is announced in mid October
