It's still available on NetGalley for a few more days if anyone's tempted.

PattyMacDotComma | 3297 comments I'm still enjoying my favourite old Czech detective in Graham Brack's great series set in Prague. The third book is Death On Duty: Authentic detective fiction, packed full of suspense, and there are more to come! Dark crime and light humour. Perfect mix!

PattyMacDotComma | 3297 comments Now for something completely different! Blossoms in Autumn is a new, adult, graphic (in both senses of the word) novel about an older guy and an older woman, both alone now, and how they get to know each other, warts and all (yes, all). Have a look - I included some good illustrations.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9973 comments Victoria Purman's soon-to-be published The Land Girls (15th April) is a great historical read set during WW2. Interesting and heart-warming.

Andrea | 2163 comments Although I enjoyed Butter Tea at Sunrise: A Year in the Bhutan Himalaya, it wasn't my favourite amongst the similar Bhutan memoir/travel books I've read over the years.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9973 comments If you had told me when I was at Uni that one day I would request a book about politics from the publisher, I would have said you needed to consult a psychiatrist.

I have obviously changed, a lot!

The people at Text Publishing were kind enough to send me From Secret Ballot to Democracy Sausage: How Australia Got Compulsory Voting by Aussie historian Judith Brett, when I asked them for it. Interesting, I learned heaps, and of course very topical.
4.5★s

Brooke - One Woman's Brief Book Reviews (onewomansbbr) | 752 comments 3 stars for Eleanor's Secret by Caroline Beecham Eleanor's Secret by Aussie Author Caroline Beecham.
Found this average, which was disappointing for me after reading such high reviews of it - just not overly my cup of tea.
