mike finn’s book reviews

“Spider’s Bite” by Jennifer Estep – Engaging heroine, fast plot, new ideas, fun read

“Blackout” by Connie Willis – I couldn’t finish it – very disappointing

“The Long Earth” Terry Pratchett and Stephen Baxter – Dissapointing: Incomplete novel. Old fashioned SF. No emotion.

“Chasing The Dead” by Tim Weaver

“Smokin’ Seventeen” by Janet Evanovich – Stephanie Plum back on form

The Lace Reader by Brunonia Barry – challenging book where nothing is as it seems

“Meet Me At The Cupcake Cafe” by Jenny Colgan

The Ambassador’s Mission (Traitor Spy Trilogy, #1) by Trudi Canavan: disappointing read – none of the magic of “The Black Magician Trilogy”

“Crooked Letter, Crooked Letter” by Tom Franklin
