Goat Song

A crime novel set in present day Montmartre. I loved the main character but found the text a bit laboured in places. The overall plot was good and had a really good solution. Definitely worth a read 7/10

We need to talk about Kevin

By Lionel Shriver.
Wow! I don't know if we needed to but we did. This was a disturbing book that was very well written with twists along the way right up to the end.
The book was a challenging look at school shootings and was a demanding read. Having said that I did not want to put it down. However, this is one book I would not contemplate reading again-too sad. 8/10

Lock 14

A Maigret novel by George Simenon.
An easy short read which kept me occupied on a train journey. I enjoy Maigret and I enjoyed this. A staightforward crime mystery which if you like crime novels you will like. 7/10
