Work is just crazy at the moment, as fast as I cross something off my 'to do' list, something else is added on to the bottom. That being the case I need a little bit of the chocolate for the mind. Something straightforward and soothing. The first of my little comfort books was strangely a murder mystery, the first in the Rebus series. 'Knots and Crosses' by Ian Rankin. I love murder mysterys especially TV ones, though I had never watched many Rebus. This was fairly straightforward and really picked up pace as the book went on. Rankin has made Rebus a complex enough character for there to be plenty of threads to unravel in later books.
The second book I've picked up is an Agatha Raisin. I'm so glad I found this series. They are just ripping good yarns that take a couple of hours to read. The heroine Agatha Raisin is acerbic but flawed and therefore likeable. Love 'em.
