[QUOTE="RosieLKH, post: 634766, member: 108816"] On my recent holiday I was reading a few paranormal/supernatural detective/crime type books. There's some good stuff and some utter rubbish out there for Kindle. Witchy Business by Eve Paludan and Stuart Sharp - bk one in a series - This was OK for 77p. It's a good idea - witch detective set in Edinburgh - but is quite American in its writing. However, the constant sex was irritating - it was always so fantastic too! I read all the series though, so I managed to put up with it (but that's me and sex all over - LOL). On the basis of it being OK for a cheap book I got another by Eve Paludan and Suzanne Wilson - Werewolf Interrupted - a werewolf detective series (there's a theme here!). Again, the idea behind the story (1st in a series) was fine, but the quality of the writing was dire, with dialogue so strange and stilted that I actually looked up the authors to see if English was not their first language. Not worth the £2.95 I splashed out on 3 book set for Kindle. I did read them all, but then I do tend to read what I buy. No stupid sex in these at least! Reckoning by Kerry Wilkinson is a YA dystopian novel. Apparently it's like the Hunger Games, but I haven't read that or seen the film so can't comment. This was on special offer, so was a good deal for 99p, but it's more expensive now. I like the book, and it's the first in a series but the have not been published yet. The author is better known for his (yes, his!) detective books, so I might buy one of those. Graveyard Shift by Angela Roquet was a good read for a book that is free on Kindle. Lana is a reaper, as in gatherer of souls, and this is a light, amusing, mystery, which would be a really good read if the author had left out all the fantastic sex the main character has. Waking Up Dead by Margo Bond Collins - I'm halfway through this and thoroughly enjoying it. It's £1.95 on Kindle and worth it for a well-written book. No sex so far, just a good old crime to solve and a well-rounded bunch of characters. [/QUOTE]
