Journal Entry 3 by wingNetstationwing from Coventry, West Midlands United Kingdom on Tuesday, November 8, 2005
Grabbed this last night, from the shelves at the Rose and Crown. It's been on my wish list for ages and I simply turned up at the pub for a quiz, and there it was! I've actually read quite a bit of it, while I was waiting for the other team members to arrive, and I'm really enjoying it so far.

I took this with me to finish on my last trip and I'm glad that I did. Getting lost in a book is a great way of forgetting that Travel Lodges aren't really hotels!

I really enjoyed this book, and I'd go so far as to say that it will appear on my 'Top Ten Books 2005' list. Really strong characterisation, a great sense of time and place, and several well-woven strands in the plot make it a winner for me. That, and the fact that the predictable ending doesn't happen! Not sure what to do with this. I think I'll try a ring, or maybe release it at the BBC OBCZ in Coventry.
