Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 08/05/2025#75 Better Off Dead by Lee Child. The 26th Reacher novel may not be the sheer tour de force of some of its predecessors, but its still an enjoyable way to spend a weekend. There's enough here to keep me wanting more Reacher for a while yet 📚💙 020
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 08/05/2025#74 The Malevolent Eight by @decastell.bsky.social. Oh this is fun. Hilarious, witty, violent, depraved, and fun. This was such a joy to read - it picks up from book 1 and just takes the crazy to new levels. As ever, de Castell's writing is compelling and engaging, and not one page is wasted 📚💙 032
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 08/05/2025#73 End Game. The final Will Robie book by David Baldacci is a non stop page turner that is the explosive finale that Robie deserves. A cracking read 📚💙 020
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 08/05/2025#72 The Chalk Pit by @ellygriffiths.bsky.social. Such a comforting and easy read with old friends, that again doesn't fail to touch on and discuss darker and difficult subjects. I'd love to devour the rest of the series but dont want them to end! 📚💙 140
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 04/05/2025It’s a phenomenal series. Book 3 is something special 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 28/04/2025#71 A Schooling in Murder. Such an entertaining and clever new standalone by Andrew Taylor. Written from the perspective of a (recently murdered) ghost, we follow her as she invisibly wanders the grounds of a boarding school trying to solve her murder. Its clever and unique and a great whodunnit 📚💙 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 28/04/2025#70 The Ex Wife by @timsullivanauthor.bsky.social Another entertaining short story featuring the brilliant George Cross. A great way to pass a spare hour, and a perfect reminder of just how good these books are 📚💙 020
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 25/04/2025#69 A Drop of Corruption by Robert Jackson Bennett. This uniquely brilliant series gets even better. Such a great concept that is expanded and broadened in this second book. Such a pleasure to read, one of those rare books you wish wouldnt end 📚💙 260
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 25/04/2025#68 Carnival of Lies by @dvbishop.com. The 5th book in the brilliant Aldo series might just be the best yet. A thrilling adventure that drags Aldo from Florence to Venice and back. Its such a fun read. Contessa Valentine Coltello is such a joyful character to read (need a standalone!) I loved it 📚💙 141
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 25/04/2025#67 The Guilty by David Baldacci. Another brilliant instalment in the Will Robie series. Robie and Reel are such great characters to read. The action as ever is non-stop, and never fails to let my attention slip 📚💙 000
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 21/04/2025Will miss your narration, you’ve brought me so much joy and pleasure listening to you tell these stories. Thank you! 030

Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 11/04/2025#66 The Savage Isle by Michael Arnold. The first in a new series set in Britain on the eve of the Roman invasion. Its such a great read. Told from the British perspective, it focuses on the tribes and their way of life with the looming threat of Rome on the horizon. A unique and remarkable story 📚💙 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 11/04/2025#65 A Day of Fallen Night by Samantha Shannon. This is an intriguing and immersive fantasy tale. I don't think i was able to give it the time and commitment it deserved unfortunately, but there was a lot here to enjoy 📚💙 020
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 03/04/2025#64 The Man in the Canary Waistcoat by @susangrosseyauthor.bsky.social. The second Sam Plank novel is another brilliant Regency financial crime thriller. Plank is such a great character. These books are such a joy to read 📚💙 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 03/04/2025#63 Battle of the Bands by @caimhmc.bsky.social Another hilarious short story featuring Bunny McGarry. Everything Caimh writes has me in stiches, and this is no exception 📚💙 020
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 29/03/2025#62 The Wanted by Robert Crais. Another brilliant read from the brilliant Robert Crais. The writing is so slick and easy, he leads us through the story at breakneck pace, yet it never feels rushed. No page is ever wasted. A genius at work 📚💙 000
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 26/03/2025#61 The White Knight by Scott Mariani. Ben Hope comes to the aid of an old friend in another thrilling adventure that spans the globe. I always enjoy spending more time with Ben and his loyal mates 📚💙 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 26/03/2025(2/2) which way the ending will unfold. And even then it came as surprise, unfolding like a Shakespearian tragedy. Just brilliant 📚💙 020
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 26/03/2025#60 The Art of a Lie by @laurasrobinson.bsky.social. Such a hugely enjoyable read. I've been looking forward to getting my hands on this for ages. Brilliantly written, and ingeniously plotted. Unlike previous books by the author, we're given the twist early, and the brilliance is not knowing (1/2) 241
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 24/03/2025#59 The Woman in Blue by @ellygriffiths.bsky.social. Another brilliant read in the Ruth Galloway series. A brilliant mix of religion and mysticism, this is a seriously good murder mystery that really did keep me guessing 📚💙 120
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 24/03/2025#58 The Grave in the Ice by Satu Ramo. The second book in this brilliant Icelandic crime series. Carrying on from book 1, we follow Hildur and Jakob as they deal with another murder mystery. These books are dark, which fit with the frosty, cold setting, but theyre so enjoyable I love them 📚💙 000
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 24/03/2025#57 The Sentinel by Lee Child. Another strong Reacher novel after the series had begun to wane a bit. The first to be co-written with his brother, not that I noticed a difference in style at all. Really gripping and great fun as ever 📚💙 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 24/03/2025#56 The Last Voice You Hear by Mick Herron. Book 2 in the Zoe Boehm series. A really enjoyable thriller that takes a little while to get going. Not as polished a book as anything from the Slow Horses series, but early signs of Herron's brilliant wit effortless diaglogue 📚💙 000
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 19/03/2025It is! Her Cambridge Hardiman books are great reads too 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 19/03/2025#55 Fatal Forgery by @susangrosseyauthor.bsky.social. This is such an enjoyable book. A financial crime mystery set in Regency London, we're introduced to Constable Sam Plank as he tries to unravel a seemingly straightforward crime. Great stuff, cant wait to read the rest 📚💙 120
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 19/03/2025#54 The Target by David Baldacci. My favourite Will Robie book so far. The scope seems much vaster than usual in a Baldacci book, which leads to a multi layered thriller that keeps the action coming page after page 📚💙 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 17/03/2025#53 A Man Dies But Once by @matthewharffy.bsky.social. A brilliant prequal novella to the equally brilliant Dark Frontier. I hope we get more westerns from Harffy. The writing, as always, is top quality. For such a short story he packs a lot in here. Its entertaining as hell and so enjoyable 📚💙 120
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 17/03/2025#52 Kingdom of the Blind by Louise Penny. Im always left feeling bereft after finishing a Gamache book. They're such emotional powerhouses. Penny's writing is always so beautiful yet so visceral. I savor every page, then find myself needing a break of a month or so before going again. Genius 📚💙 000
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 17/03/2025#51 Smoke and Mirrors by @ellygriffiths.bsky.social. Gripping second outing for Stephens and Mephisto. I'm once again impressed with Griffiths' ability to deal with tough subject matters in her plots, whilst keeping the story racing along at a hectic pace 📚💙 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 11/03/2025#50 The Politician by @timsullivanauthor.bsky.social. Another DS Cross book that I loved. Firstly its a brilliant mystery novel. But what takes it to another level is the ongoing story delving into Cross' family and growing relationships with other characters. Top class writing 📚💙 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 11/03/2025#49 Shroud by @aptshadow.bsky.social. Yet more brilliant stand alone sci-fi from Adrian Tchaikovsky. This is a dark and atmospheric tale of first contact. Its brilliantly written. Chock full of the effortless use humour in scenarios which on occasions border on a horror story 📚💙 010
Reposted by Lee GregoryChristian and Miles Cameron @phokion.bsky.social · 06/03/2025I have a book coming out in April. It’s an historical thriller based on actual events; the birth of opera, and the culture wars of 1650, which have a surprising resemblance to our own. 15113
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 06/03/2025No, thank you! This was a joy to read. Hopefully not too long to wait until The French Ambassador ! 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 06/03/2025brilliant. I was immediately drawn in and didn’t want this book to end. Historical fiction at its very best. Grab a copy of this when it comes out next month, you won’t be disappointed 📚💙 000
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 06/03/2025#48 The Venetian Heretic by @phokion.bsky.social. An early contender for my book of the year. What an incredible read. This is Christian Cameron at his imperious best. He breathes such life into 17th century Venice and this wonderful cast of characters. The writing is phenomenal, the plot is (1/2) 241
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 06/03/2025#47 Bag of Bones by @stephenking.bsky.social. Kings at his chilling best when writing about authors. It’s obvious why, but the sense of solitude and loneliness he captures just adds to the eeriness of the plot. This is a cracker 📚💙 020
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 05/03/2025#46 The Clues in the Ford by Satu Rämö. A thrilling mystery novel set in Iceland. This is a great debut novel. The author brilliantly weaves a number of plots and seemingly unconnected murders towards a gripping conclusion. Its a bleak, dark book but totally gripping 📚💙 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 03/03/2025#45 The Blackbird of St Giles by Lila Cain. A fantastically enjoyable novel set in 18th Century London. Having escaped slavery in Jamaica, we follow the grueling story of Daniel and Pearl as they fight to survive in the St Giles rookery. It's a dark and gripping tale, well worth a read 📚💙 010
Lee Gregory @leegregory.bsky.social · 28/02/2025#44 Bullseye by David Baldacci. A fun short story sees the Camel Club and assassin Will Robie join forces to bring down a team of potential assassins. It was great seeing characters from 2 series interact, would love to see more of it 📚💙 010
