I'm hoping I enjoy them both - but not too much otherwise I'll feel compelled to go overboard on the rest of his books! I will check out the two you've mentioned, just to see if they have any appeal - I'll possibly add them to the wish-list thereafter.col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-67102694571534269642014-12-05T07:51:15.499-08:002014-12-05T07:51:15.499-08:00Oooh!

I may have to dig out a copy of this.<br /><br />Although <i>Smallbone Deceased</i> is one of my #1 guilty pleasures -- I read it every few years -- I'm a bit remiss about my MG reading. I was reminded of this just the other day, with the result that I've now started on <i>The Killing of Katie Steelstock</i>. A quick visit to Wikipedia a few minutes ago has shown me -- devastatingly -- how many others I've missed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-13742616966038555282014-12-05T07:42:26.220-08:002014-12-05T07:42:26.220-08:00Cheers - some decent reads ahead of me (hopefully!...Cheers - some decent reads ahead of me (hopefully!)<br /><br />I rely on Fantastic Fiction for most of my info regarding authors, books and series. There are "apparently" 3 books featuring Patrick Petrella - Petrella @ Q (1977), The Young Petrella (1988) and Roller Coaster (1994). <br /><br />On closer examination the first two are collections of short stories featuring PP, whereas the 3rd is a novel. I may not feel compelled to back track on him now.col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-71968205938747856462014-12-05T07:28:04.610-08:002014-12-05T07:28:04.610-08:00Some good-lookin' books there!
