So glad I finally got around to starting the Innkeeper series from writing team Ilona Andrews with this first in the series
Clean Sweep. I love a good fantasy and the concept of a magic, sentient Inn works really well.

Congratulations Brenda! I just don't know how you do it :)
Exit by Belinda Bauer will be out in February 2021. It's my first by this author, but won't be my last. Brilliant and entertaining British crime fiction.5★s

Olav Audunssøn: I. Vows takes place in Norway in the 1200s. This translated edition was released just this month. Author Sigrid Undset won the Nobel Prize for Literature in 1928. This has all the feuds, arranged marriages, hard times, difficult romancing you'd expect from such a cold place so very long ago, but I think some of her other writing must have been what earned her the Nobel.

I finished the audio of Earthly Delights, the first book in the Corinna Chapman series by Kerry Greenwood today. It's read by Louise Siversen, who made it just as enjoyable as the first time around, but I realised my first read was in the days before I wrote reviews, so my review from today's read is a very short one. 5★s (except for the icky blood bit)

Great read! My review for The Family Inheritance by Tricia Stringer

I found
The Promised Land by AA Barry Maitland a tad disappointing. My review here.https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
In two weeks, fans of the series can get another Timothy Blake fix when Hideout by Aussie author, Jack Heath is published. I got an early read and found it just as entertaining as the first two. And I'm pretty sure of answers to 39 of the 45 riddles...5★s

Having started several but not yet finished any other Brandon Sanderson series, I started another one and listened to an audiobook of
Skyward. Only book 2 is out so far (with book 3 expected next year) so I should be able to keep up with this one.review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

A Chorus of Innocents (Sir Robert Carey #7) by P.F. Chisholm was another entertaining instalment in this historical fiction mystery series set in 1592 on the English/Scottish borderlands. Ah, the intrigue! Such a great way to soak up a bit of history. But mind the bloodshed!
4.5★ Link to my Innocents review
Trying to finish my AR Australian Authors challenge, this book is one that has been published in 2020. I greatly enjoyed it, and am posting my brief review. 4.5★s
Finding Eadie by Caroline Beechamhttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
4 stars for this one :)
Death in the Ladies' Goddess Club by Aussie Author Julian Leatherdalehttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Another excellent episode in Jim Butcher's Harry Dresden series with still a couple for me to read to catch up. My review for
Cold Days https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Christopher Ragland has absolutely the perfect voice for Jack Heath's unusual protagonist in his Timothy Blake series. His narration of Hunter, also published as Just One Bite, is brilliant and I do hope he will narrate Timothy Blake #3, out on December 1st, Hideout.5★s for this one!!

Devotion by Madeline Stevens missed the mark for me, I'm afraid!

In Dulci Jubilo is a Christmas-themed freebie in the Master Mercurius series from Graham Brack. But once I had it on my tablet, there was no way I could restrain myself from reading it for another five weeks! 5★s
