Ash by James Herbert
And tremarnock by Emma burstall

I'm another who reads more than one at a time, one at the weekends when we are away and the other before sleep at night.

Re: What book are you reading now?

I have, in the recent past, downloaded several M R James's ghost stories to my Kindle software and have read them and others more than once. One of my favourites is The Treasure of Abbot Thomas.

His stories are quite far removed from the more recent of the genre and, comparatively, are far more subtle and really make you think rather than cringe in terror!

Other M R James fans will know exactly what I mean.

Re: What book are you reading now?

Here is short book you would probably enjoy JBR. I managed to get it free on kindle but I notice it is now £1.99

A simple story of one 'ordinary' man's life.

Re: What book are you reading now?

I have nearly finished 'Fall of Giants' 94% read.
As for buying books 'cheap' from Amazon, a couple of times I have done so, only to find that they are abridged versions.
I realy don't need to, as apart from the daily free books, and there are sometimes a decent read. I have thousands of ebooks on a couple of CDs that I bought.

Re: What book are you reading now?

I am an avid reader of fictional crime who dunnits and read every day.
My latest find is James Lee Burke a brilliant American author writing about the southern states .... a very descriptive and intelligent author taking time to describe to flora and fauna and topography of the areas.
You do need to have a larger than average understanding of the American life and speech, some of the phrases used require an American dictionary to assist your understanding, but well worth the effort.
My latest read is 'Jolie Blon's Bounce' a very intriguing title and a superb page-turner.
