Nearly all of the books I read are paperbacks. I do have a kindle, but I've tended to only use it when I'm travelling. I'm aware, however, that I have a few e-books building up (though nothing like the paper to-be-read pile). Here's what's waiting to be read. I hope to get to them over the next few months. The first one - The Polka Dot Girl - has an quirky angle: it's a noir in which every single character is female. It'll be interesting to see how successfully that works.

A lot of mystery readers like Martin Edwards' 'All the Lonely People'. I personally found that there wasn't quite enough happening in it to keep me really gripped, although it is certainly well written.
