Yes I have read a couple of Tess Gerritsen's books, she is a good crime writer.

Ta very muchly Ann

I have read quite a few of Tess Gerritsen, so she will be an okay read.
I didn't fancy Zombies, but I am often surprised how I will take to a book as in "The Last Templar" which if I remember rightly was only in Korean or Chinese - but that was when I looked up the title - when I looked up his name there were loads - not impressed with Library's cross referencing.

Well I trawled round the charity shops and I think they had every Tess G book except the one I wanted and the library didn't have it. I wonder if it is a fairly recent one. I have seen it on Amazon anyway so can get it for the Kindle if necessary.

I thought we werre going to spread the votes over all the books this time but we have a winner and two runners up. Please read at least two books.



(However if you remember I said I would only carry on if I didn't read all the books each month because of the tremendous pile of books I have waiting to be read here. So probably i will just read one of the winners and maybe the ones I suggested as well if I have time. Sorry but if anyone disagrees I am only too pleased to hand over the organising.

Review date as I said 15 February please note it on your calendars.


The winner is:
Pride and Prejudice and Zombies by Jane Austen & Seth Grahame-Smith

runners up are:
Thirty Three Teeth by Colin Cotterill
Keeping the Dead by Tess Gerritsen
