What I Just Finished Reading

Dying Fall by Elly Griffiths. As my mother lent me the paperback I went straight on from reading A Room Full of Bones to the next in the Ruth Galloway series. An old university friend of Ruth's is murdered and she's asked to assist with an amazing archaeological

The complicated relationships between the familiar characters continue and some new ones are added into the mix. Can't wait for the next book in this series. The Arthurian part is a neat twist on the legends, which is entirely possible

I liked the different setting a lot. I feel we may be seeing some of those new characters again. The Arthurian part was the icing on the cake :)

The Griffiths book sounds interesting.

Cheers for your weekend away! [hugs]

Thanks. We're only heading for Lincolnshire and dealing with Ma-in-Law's house but it will be nice to have a break. Even the No Internet is good sometimes.

The Griffiths books are very readable.

Many hugs back :)

I know! The number of fics this year for Paperlegends in amazing. I'll still be reading them well into next year :)

I've found that I can only read one book at a time now if I want to finish something. I started off back in the spring with my usual three, had to give two up to concentrate on Our Mutual Friend, finished that, went back to the other two, read nothing but the non-fiction book until I'd finished it. Went back to the remaining one and am now two thirds through that.

And it still feels all wrong to be only reading one book at a time (possibly because this last book is boring me slightly).

I'm finding that too. It's quite disconcerting not to be able to read three at once any more. I can still do it if I set aside a specific time for each book, but if one book is more involving than the other then that tends to win out despite my best intentions.
