My Review https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I am currently reading Until the Day I Die by Emily Carpenter and also have Dead Memories on my shelf (Angela Marsons). Would love to read Lisa Gardner's Never Tell but Penguin Group is the publisher and they always deny me.
I am reading Dead Memories
& just finished How Not to Die Alone
. Have to get that review done, but it was a story that made me think & I enjoyed it.
About to start
Believe In Me by Susan Lewis after finishing a five-star read
The Suspect by Fiona Barton. My spoiler free review can be found at https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... and https://sandysbookaday.wordpress.com/...
Reading Girl on the Edge, Do The Dead Dream?: An Anthology of the Weird and the Peculiar and An Improbable Pairing
If you liked "Where's Wally" and the tiny details in the Richard Scarry children's books, or those great little cartoon tourist maps with all the landmarks, I bet you'd enjoy Egypt Magnified: With a 3x Magnifying Glass. History made fun. Just delightful!

Out of the Silence: a compelling revenge thriller by Owen MullenCompelling, shocking, informative. My spoiler free review can be found at https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... and on my webpage sandysbookaday.wordpress.com https://sandysbookaday.wordpress.com/...
I will read anything by Helen Garner! Fiction, non-fiction, novels, stories. Honour and Other People's Children is a reissue of a pair of novellas, and true to form, I loved the first. 4.5★Not the second, sadly. 3★

The First Time I Died by Jo Macgregor.My last NetGalley read was
The Girl in the Corner by Amanda Prowse. I gave this 4 ⭐⭐⭐⭐.
I knew some, but not all, of the Super Scientists: 40 inspiring icons featured in this attractively designed book of historical facts for kids (and ignorant people like me).

I am now reading The Silent Patient
and it is so good.
I just finished Lost Roses by Martha Hall Kelly. It was fantastic. Next up is Waisted which I just got approved for this week!
I loved
Dirty Little Secrets by Jo Spain , my spoiler free review can be found at https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... and on my webpage https://sandysbookaday.wordpress.com/...
Something Happened in Our Town: A Child's Story about Racial Injustice by Marianne Celano and others is a 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.

Just finished #11 in the excellent Ruth Galloway series,
The Stone Circle by Elly Griffiths. This would have to be my favorite in the series so far. My spoiler free review can be found at https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... and on my webpage https://sandysbookaday.wordpress.com/...About to begin
The Promise by Teresa Driscoll
I'm reading
, and so far it's very good :)
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:
Lying and Dying

The Silent Patient by Alex Michaelides
What is it about penguins that is so cute? This little Not-So-Brave Penguin surprises herself when her friend is lost. Another lovely Steve Smallman children's picture book.

TERRIBLE TERRIBLE TERRIBLE! Why do I keep doing this to myself? Buzz Books 2019: Spring/Summer: Excerpts from Next Season's Best New Titles by LIV Constantine, Karl Marlantes, Moby, J. Ryan Stradal, Ocean Vuong and More is full of previews as awfully tempting as ever. ARGH*#@!
