Written:
Sex and the City - Candace Bushnell
Sherlock Holmes's Greatest Cases - Arthur Conan Doyle
Other Paths To Glory - Anthony Price
The Deep Blue Goodbye - John D. MacDonald
The Getaway - Jim Thompson
Double Indemnity - James M. Cain
The Murders In The Rue Morgue (and other stories) - Edgar Allan Poe
Ice - Ed McBain

Unwritten:

Good stuff - go for it!

I'm from Staffordshire as well, by the way. Eccleshall, if you know it... went to school in Stafford and College in Newcastle - 1991-1994.

Aah yes, I'm far too enthusiastic (and nerdish) about the history of Staffordshire. I know Eccleshall well. It's in the Domesday book along with my nearest 'village': Penkhull (Pinchetel). A girl I knew from Staffs University came from Eccleshall and, of course, I knew loads of people who went to Newcastle college. Almost went there myself but decided upon Cauldon College because it was closer (then; N-U-L is closer now).
