Florida trip

I returned from Florida on Sunday/Monday after 10 days wandering round the state and also attending a conference.  I spent some time in Miami, the Everglades, Key West, and Tampa.  I've read a couple of dozen crime novels set in the state, so it was nice to put places to books.  Before and whilst there I read a handful of other Florida-based tales.  These include:

Margin of Error by Edna Buchanan
Hurricane Punch by Tim Dorsey
Tropical Heat by John Lutz
Live by Night by Dennis Lehane
The Big Goodbye by Michael Lister

I've still got two more book reviews to post, plus one more book to read.
Tropical Freeze by James W. Hall
Night Moves by Randy Wayne White
To Have and Have Not by Ernest Hemingway

I should get to those in the next few days.

St Patrick's Day reading

Happy St Patrick's Day.  Given it's a day to celebrate all things Irish I've gone back through my reviews and picked out all the novels written by Irish authors in the last twelve months.  There are some cracking stories here, so why don't you join in the festivities by tracking down at least one of them and giving it a read. Or if you want something you can read right now, you could try my short story from earlier in the week, The Case of the Strange White Van, set in Leitrim.
