My review of The Time is Now, Monica Sparrow by Matt Howard
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Something Happened in Our Town: A Child's Story about Racial Injustice by Marianne Celano and others is a new children's picture book to read WITH them about cops shooting blacks, slave history, and intolerance of foreigners. It's sad to think this is needed.
My review with illustrations
Super proud of myself for slugging my way through One Hundred Years of Solitude by Gabriel García MárquezNeedless to say, I felt 1 star was generous.

The Love Letter
Well, I'm addicted to Mick Herron's writing now and, having exhausted his two series (until the next Jackson Lamb book in a few months), I'm working my way through the stand-alones. I was delighted to find several characters from the Jackson Lamb series in Nobody Walks.5★s

Just finished #12 in my favourite urban fantasy series
Changes by Jim Butcher 5★review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Storytelling at its best - a new favourite! Once Upon a River by Diane Setterfield is mysterious and magic.

My review of Trigger Warning: Short Fictions and Disturbances by Neil Gaiman 4★https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Thanks to Scribe Australia, an award-winning debut novel by New Zealand author Annaleese Jochems, Baby,which I would describe as surreal. Likely to polarise readers.3.5★s

Dark Past 3.5★review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
My review of The Gordonston Ladies Dog Walking Club by Duncan Whitehead
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I really enjoyed both of these! This clever Czech detective has an appetite and wardrobe and disregard for protocol like Mick Herron's Jackson Lamb without the farts. Loved and understood (!) the Eastern European intrigue.Graham Brack,s first two in the series:

It was lucky as it was from Random House UK, so the approval was unexpected and took a while. Always worth asking on the off-chance!

I think it was via an email that I discovered the link https://www.alexandermccallsmith.co.u... for these short stories by Alexander McCall Smith. They are very short, between 2 and six pages, mostly, so a really quick read. I have read and reviewed a few already, between books, but today's still has me chuckling every time I think about it.AMS fans are bound to enjoy these!

My first Australian review for 2019 for
The Orchardist's Daughter by Karen Viggershttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
OK, This Is What Happened is a Mick Herron stand alone novel that doesn't feature any Slough House characters, but it's a great read all the same. 5★s
