I intend to catch up then do my other bits and pieces on the blog. I think you would like Max Allan Collins.<br />I haven't seen ROAD TO PERDITION but will keep an eye out for it. col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-32247478540246086592016-10-09T23:59:31.053-07:002016-10-09T23:59:31.053-07:00Hopefully you have and you do - I really like his ...Hopefully you have and you do - I really like his characters and the way he advances his plots quite quickly.col2910https://www.blogger.com/profile/06422138069939709043noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-12735365465221923612016-10-09T21:05:48.679-07:002016-10-09T21:05:48.679-07:00This series definitely sounds like one I want to t...This series definitely sounds like one I want to try, Col. But I have to read some of Collin's books that I already have first. <br /><br />I do agree that I may read a book that I enjoy a LOT, but still not remember a lot about it later. We read so many books... you more than me... so we can't remember everything.TracyKhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08303342674824383688noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2109031751968258131.post-6967495461417187162016-10-08T09:13:38.670-07:002016-10-08T09:13:38.670-07:00Col, if I'd reviewed books as soon as I finish...Col, if I'd reviewed books as soon as I finished reading them, I'd have had hundreds of reviews by now. Like you, I too remember enjoying certain books though I wouldn't be able to do justice writing about them.<br /><br />Like Bill Pronzini, I need to make my Max Allan Collins debut. I didn't realise he'd written "Road To Perdition" What a film!Prashant C.
