After finishing my 23rd book of the year, my quest to reread all of the James Bond novels - and buy the new editions to replace my tatty old secondhand copies - continues with John Gardner’s second contribution to the series.

Nineteen books into the year so far and it’s time for one of those books that you have to read because people that read books tell you that you have to read this book! My next download onto my Kindle (other ebook readers are available) is going to be Crime and Punishment

Fifteen books read already this year, so this becomes the next escapee from that teetering tower that is my to be read pile! (Actually, they’re safely stored in several carrier bags)

I have read fourteen books so far this year, and next up is something a bit different, except that I have read quite a few books about the sex industry in general, but erotic/exotic dancing and striptease specifically
