My review of the 2nd collection of Grantchester mysteries, Sidney Chambers and the Perils of the Night by James Runcie 4.0 starshttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Next in line is the 1st book in the Lara McClintoch mysteries. I've read a few others but like most of my series I'm trying to read in sequential order. The Xibalba Murders by Lyn Hamilton

I'm sorry for what you're going through, Martha. Do the best to take care of yourself and enjoy your short trips on Route 66 (see the rhyming there? 😎 That's where you get your kicks... on Route 66 (I tried to sing it but my singing voice ain't what it used to be.)Best wishes to you, Tutu and your family
My review of With the Fire on High by Elizabeth Acevedo Excellent story. 4.5 starshttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Starting Autocracy, Inc. by Anne Applebaum next, one of those books that I feel, if I'm going to read, I need to read right now.

Georges Simenon is my August focus author. He's author of the Inspector Maigret mystery series. First book finished is the 8th in the series, which finds Maigret in Holland, hence Maigret in Holland. 4.0 starshttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Next is the 9th book, The Grand Banks Café

I like Young Adult as a genre as well

I haven't read anything else by Westerfield but I recently bought The Risen Empire which sounded interesting
