I used to write book reviews for Amazon at least once a week. I love to read suspense and thriller-type books. Although I haven't had time to read contemporary fiction lately, and I'm not at all pleased with the language some authors are able to get away with, I do try to keep up with what is happening in the industry. I recently received an ARC (advanced reading copy) of Gayle Lynd's newest book The Last Spymaster, which I hope to review within the next week (I'm already two weeks behind my scheduled commitment! - so sorry Gayle!). So far, it's a winner. If you like international thrillers, you may want to grab a copy for yourself when it is released on May 30.
