PattyMacDotComma | 3299 comments I'm not sure I'd be up to the challenge of visiting Matt Haig's imaginative The Midnight Library, but it sure would be tempting!

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9975 comments I thought Michael Robotham's second Cyrus Haven book, When She Was Good was a brilliant read, and Joe Jameson's narration of the audio really enhances the experience.

I'm about half-way through Joe's narration now, Marianne, so I'll read your review later. I'm loving it!

PattyMacDotComma | 3299 comments The Book of Ebenezer Le Page is the fictional memoir of a very old Guernsey bachelor (who always enjoyed the girls), written by G.B. Edwards. It covers both World Wars, the Depression, and the Nazi Occupation. It is unique and absolutely fascinating!

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9975 comments Set against the Brexit backdrop, Nick Hornby's latest novel, Just Like You tackles quite a few topical issues, and doesn't go where I expected it to. Entertaining and thought-provoking.

Krystal (krystallee6363) | 2304 comments This series is honestly one of the weirdest things I've ever read, and yet I am sad it's over. It's such a twisted addiction.

PattyMacDotComma | 3299 comments I am another enthusiastic fan of Graham Brack and his mystery series. Dishonour and Obey is the third outing with Master Mercurius, who investigates a murder for colourful English King Charles II.

This is the way to learn history so you remember it!
