I've finished my first book for November. I took it with me to read on the train today on the way to catch up with some friends for lunch and it was such a quick, fun read that I finished it over a cup of tea after I got home.

Thanks to NetGalley and Text Publishing for Cold Fear, the second book in Mads Peder Nordbo's Greenland series. It's bloodthirsty with a high body count, excellent Scandi noir, but do read The Girl Without Skin first if you want to avoid spoilers.4.5★s

Peace, the second book featuring Constable Paul Hirschhausen, clearly demonstrates Aussie author, Garry Disher’s indisputable talent for rural noir. It can be read as a stand-alone, but why deny yourself the pleasure of reading Hirsch’s first outing, Bitter Wash Road. A big 5 ★s from me, and fingers crossed for more Hirsch, please!https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

I haven't read this author, but from what I've heard she's very hot and cold Kylie. Bad luck you were disappointed in this one :(
My review for
The Man on the Street by Trevor Wood, a well deserved 5 ★https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Crazy Rich Asians by Kevin Kwan was rather dull for what I was expecting, and I suspect this may be one of those rare times the movie is better than the book? Though I'm yet to see it.

It was good that you got to both enjoy the same series and love chatting about them. So although it will be sad to read a new 'Bertie' in the future you'll always have those nice memories.
