When Darwin Sailed the Sea: Uncover how Darwin's revolutionary ideas helped change the world by David Long is a great little book that should be in all school libraries. Attractive and informative, even for old folks like me. :)

Her Secret Son by Hannah Mary McKinnon

Two more read. I am making the most of my time before I have to start back to work.
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Her by Garry Disher Dark. Unsettling. Heartbreaking. This will put paid to any romantic notions you may harbour about the 'good old days.' https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ The Postscript Murders by Elly Griffiths. A must read for fans of Agatha Christie. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show... https://sandysbookaday.wordpress.com/...

Celebrated Irish author Colm Tóibín wrote the short story The Shortest Day for Amazon Originals about a mysterious, ancient Irish tomb, older than the Pyramids or Stonehenge.

Author Catherine Ryan Hyde is a favourite of many readers for her hopeful, heartwarming books. Seven Perfect Things: A Novel is the first I've read, and it was a happy break between heavier reads.

Jeffrey Archer pens a collection of short stories filled with twists and turns. Things are not what they seem and by the end of each tale, readers are in for a shocking surprise. Archer is a master of short stories and keeps readers on the edge of their seats before free falling by the final page.

[PattyMacDotComma]

I read the 4th book in Charlie Garratt's Inspector James Given series, Where Every Man, and I'm sure readers of the earlier books would like this one, where he is facing the fast-approaching Nazis in France in 1938.
3.5★ Link to my review of Where Every Man

[PattyMacDotComma]

I also read the 4th book in Graham Brack's delightful Master Mercurius mystery series. Mercurius is a 17th century Dutch minister/priest/university lecturer who has a talent for investigation. The Noose's Shadow is another entertaining adventure!

I'm more than half way through and really enjoying this. It's much more complicated of a mystery than I thought it would be. I'm really liking it so far :)

The Lost Soul Atlas by Zana Fraillon is a fantastical book for young readers, but it's just as entertaining for grown-ups. Life or afterlife or somewhere in between? Twiggy tries to find himself and his Da.

What mother in her right mind enlists the help of her fourteen-year-old daughter so she can have an affair with her husband's best friend? Adrienne Brodeur had just such a mother, and she tells all in her autobiography, Wild Game: My Mother, Her Lover, and Me. It's all true and quite a read!

Happy Publication Day 'Aunt Ivy's Cottage.'



I'm taking part in the author's blog tour on December 12th but here's a sneak peek.

The cottage doors swing open to welcome readers to Dune Island, a haven from life’s storms. While Zoey attempts to pick up the pieces of her former life, she has to bury the past. Struggling to help Aunt Ivy come to terms with Sylvia’s death, Zoey finds shelter in the love the island provides.

I was looking forward to reading this children's edition of The Nutcracker by words&pictures during the Christmas season, but I was disappointed. Colourful but confusing (to me).

I absolutely love What Can You Do With a Line?, that makes my fingers itchy to try drawing! It would be a great Christmas (or other) gift, along with some pencils. Perfect pressie!
