The Moneypenny Diaries 3: Final Fling- Kate Westbrook

This is easily the best of the trilogy – with an excellent twist at the end. I’m kinda dissapointed the series had to end. It was try awesome.

The Moneypenny Diaries 2: Secret Servant- Kate Westbrook

As interesting as the first – I liked it.

The Moneypenny Diaries: Guardian Angel-Kate Westbrook

As the title suggests, this “Bond Book” focuses on the adventures of the Miss Moneypenny character. Unlike the movie series, Penny is a relatively minor character in the original novels – so this book builds upon the literary version of the character. Very interesting.

I’ve decided to skip the Young Bond’s for the moment, but I will return to them eventually.

I picked up the third of Ian Fleming’s books, Moonraker, yesterday or the day before and started reading it. So far it’s pretty enjoyable. Anybody have any thoughts about it?

Young Bond 3 stuck me. I wasn’t enjoying it, so I let the Bond books rest for a while. I’ve restarted, but with the first in the Moneypenny Diaries series.
