Ahh good question Marianne. And I completely agree with you - how on earth did that slip past the editors?? Or even be written by the author herself!

I know not everyone loved Sweet Sorrow, the latest book by British author, David Nicholls but I did. David Nicholls has such a talent for characters. 5★s

I am always happy to revisit Canadian author Louise Penny's village of Three Pines. Too bad that death is the price of admission. I loved The Nature of the Beast.

A chilling psychological thrillerFollow You Home by Mark Edwards

3 stars. I liked the first book but not overly impressed with this one, editing?. I had an Aunt who worked as a supervisor in Migration camps so l already had some knowledge of conditions, very difficult. Most from this time did very well and in time enjoyed their improved lives. My mother's wedding dress was used many times by migrant brides and is now held at Ryde (NSW) Historical Society.

Here's my review for Scrublands by AA Chris Hammer. Loved it!https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
While I have read most of Ber Carroll's books, I haven't read any by her writing as B.M. Carroll until now. (I will have to remedy that) Who We Were is a brilliant read that starts with a school reunion. The characters and their situations are realistic and it kept me guessing right up to the last chapters. 5★s
Thanks to NetGalley and Serpent's Tail/Profile Books
