October 2018 Wrap up

Vox - C. Dalcher
Very thought provoking, quite scary as a not impossible future; second part not quite so good.
Rating:  7,5 out of 10

Home fire - K. Shamsie
The theme is very interesting, execution didn't blow me away though.
Rating:  6 out of 10

The clockmaker's daughter - K. Morton
Unfortunately a disappointment, too slow, too ghostly for me, who normally loves K Morton!
Rating:  5 out of 10

Quello che rimane - P. Fox
Non fa per me, discorsi spezzati, mi manca il pathos.
Rating:  4 out of 10

In a house of lies - I. Rankin
Rebus never disappoints! Another great Scottish crime story. Rating: 7,5 out of 10

Wish you were here - C. Alliott
Pleasant enough chick lit, a bit too much thrown in maybe.
Rating:  6 out of 10

Anatomy of a scandal - S. Vaughan
Abandoned - too slow pace, very uninteresting.
Rating:  Abandoned

Il ladro gentiluomo - A. Gazzola
Un altro piacevolissimo giallo con Alice. Un po' piu' triste dei precedenti, ma sempre con quell'aria di tenera goffaggine che la contaddistingue. 
Rating:  7,5 out of 10


Fate il vostro gioco - A. Manzini
Rocco rimane sempre Rocco, anche se questo romanzo mi e' piacituo meno rispetto ai due precedenti.
