I don't know if you have read any of his books before but wanted to say tht he is one of my all time favourites! These 2 + the Woman on the Fifth are my favourites of those that I have read. Have 3 more on my TBR's to read yet. x

I love Douglas Kennedy's books and The Woman in the Fifth was the first of his that I read, which I adored - have since been collecting and reading/TBR'ing all of them.

Also really liked The Big Picture (if that's the one set in Australia?) but not over keen on The Job, although it was ok.

I saw a DVD version of The Woman in the Fifth in the library so might borrow it some time.

The House of Dust and Dreams    by   Brenda Reid

Got this from the library in connection with the Reading Relay 2012(I have posted an article on this in Book Chat)

One swap today: The Big Sleep by Raymond Chandler.

I went to library today and got quite a few! 

Freya North - Rumours
Alice Peterson - Ten Years On
Carmen Reid - Jewels of Manhattan (Audio)
Martina Reilly - Summer of Secrets  

One today, a lovely hardback copy of The House by the Sea Santa Montefiore - thank you Brenda - I shall enjoy the tea as well!

A Special Relationship - Douglas Kennedy

My two favourite DK books, absolutely loved them.  I haven't enjoyed his recent ones quite as much and I found The Woman in the Fifth a bit baffling!

Today I received Island of Wings by Karin Altenberg from Amazon Warehouse Deals and On the Edge of Darkness by Barbara Erskine in a swap (tiny tiny font which should probably have been mentioned in the description but I'll let it go).

One swap: Under a Vampire Moon - Lynsay Sands.

 Lots today - been out shopping and swaps as well!

• The Lifeboat by Charlotte Rogan - gone straight onto my swap list - sadly a duplicated copy
• A Vintage Affair by Isabel Wolff
• A Question of Love by Isabel Wolff - another for the swap list
• Everything Must Go by Elizabeth Flock
• The Novel in the Viola by Natasha Solomons
• The Villa Girls by Nicky Pellegrino
