Just finished a book I got from my brother called lost in the wild by a local lassie called Farah McGann. Set in and around the north east. Cat and mouse crime thriller. Great read with some very familiar settings

I read eight Stuart McBride books over the summer, which are set in and around Aberdeen and we're quite decent.

I like crime novels, but I think everyone and their dogs are writing them nowadays.

I'll keep an eye out for the one you mentioned above.

I'm reading Vera Brittains 'Testament of Youth' at the moment.

It's semi autobiographical and covers the period 1900- 1925 and critical of war.

A Theatre For Dreamers by Polly Samson (Dave Gilmour of the Floyd's missus) based on Charmian Clift’s two books about hanging out in Greece in 1960 with artists and writers including Leonard Cohen and his Marianne and a cabal of artists and hingers-on. (Proper Mannies’ paperback).

Hagstone by Sinead Gleeson - young female artist in a wee Irish island who’s asked to create a book about a wifies’ commune on the island. Likes wine, cock, and swimming (Kindle on iPad)

The third part of John Boyne’s “elements” trilogy “Fire” (“Earth” about two fitba players, and “Water” aboot a disgraced lawyer’s wife exiling herself in Ireland to avoid the hoo-hah, were as good as anything Boyne’s ever written) on audiobook.

I read Earth the other week. Couldn't see the other two at the library, but had just looked on the shelf.

Will check if they are out or at any other library.

I fell for it hook line and sinker and not referring to the Len Deighton trilogy either.

Ha ha I did wonder, why I never revealed it, so as not to spoil it for others.
I was the same. Sounded up my fathers street, googled it and only found a reference to ‘Lost In Aberdeen’.
Still never twigged, I even wondered about her changing the title. Tried again and penny only dropped when next link led to a post followed by a heap of smilies.

Good een WTFC
