I just tried to get this book on my kindle, all I could get was the lesson plan😞
How did you get it on your kindle wonder?
I child-proofed my house, but they still get in!

I had a long boring day yesterday and was caught out without my Kindle but fortunately I did have my I pad and was lucky enough to have enough batts to read Dear Fatty and memoir by Dawn French. Wonderful interesting woman.

I am also reading a cheapie thriller on Kindle called Follow the Money by Fingers Murphy. I know I know but it ain't bad for a freebie.

I am savouring saving the lastet Jack Reacher. Any day not I will start but do not expect to hear from me until it is finished. I hate how I read it right through and it is soooooooo long until the next.

I have decided to read the first book in that series Gert.  Have quite a few to get through before that latest one though.

No need to start at the beginning but it is good to get the understanding of Jack Reacher.

I heard that Tom Criuse has bought the movie rights Nd wants to play Jack. I nearly wet myself with laughter when I heard that. How ludicrous.  Bloody silly. What a Nutter

Oh Gert. I hope that's not true. I can't imagine Tom Cruise as Reacher.

Jeniwa, I think you may have inadvertently purchased the lesson plan instead of the actual book. I didnt purchase mine as a kindle book but just looking on the kindle site there is a lesson plan ebook for $9.99 and I can't see the actual book for sale in ebook format, they only seem to have paperback, hardcover, and audio book - very strange.

I enjoy Lee Childs too. At the moment I'm reading Tess Gerritsen's latest. I read about 4 pages while we were away. Too buy having a wonderful time.

No time to read when you have so many interesting people to talk to.  I just downloaded a Tess Gerritsen.

No, me either.  Can see Liam Neeson in that role though.  ;D

He is a bit weedy too and  too Irish I think.

He's 6'4" so not too far off.  Have you seen him in Taken (movie)?
