Hahaha... yes, such a short classic. lol
I just went to look at my review of Maisie Dobbs and the first line said, "This story was more of a historical fiction with a bit of a cozy mystery." I also stated that the mystery was easy to figure out. So, looks like a nice break for you, but not a big mystery.
Michael wrote: "I'm almost finished The Green Mile by Stephen King, such a brilliant read."That was a great book. I read it forever ago when it was first released as a serial. I had to wait each month for the next part come out.

I'll bet you've never heard of some of the great festivals in A Year Full of Celebrations and Festivals: Over 90 fun and fabulous festivals from around the world! by Claire Grace and Christopher Carr. What fun - I love any excuse to celebrate!

Megan Rapinoe is such a champion of soccer that it's going to be hard to top her. This is another great addition by Mª Isabel Sánchez Vegara to the Little People BIG Dream series for kids.

Wild Sign #6 by Patricia Briggs - IMHO it's the best in the Alpha & Omega series, and it can be read as a standalone. My spoiler-free review

by Conner Donnelly
I am currently reading Poisoned by Jennifer Donnelly. I am absolutely obsessed with the potential couple more than anything in this book. I am getting excited and with it and I am speeding through this story as quickly as I can.
Black Death at the Golden Gate: The Race to Save America from the Bubonic Plague by David K. RandallBecause of the parallels with earlier political stances and ongoing anti-Asian violence, this book really hit home and was both timely and uncomfortable.
My review - www.Goodreads.com/review/show/3895251459
currently reading Sweet and Bitter Magic by Adrienne Tooley. It is killing me right now. and not in a good way. I really hate one character.
Debra Oswald is a popular Aussie playwright, scriptwriter, and novelist whose brand new 'what-would-you-do' mystery/thriller, The Family Doctor, has just been released. What a nerve-wracking read!
4.5★ rounded up Link to my Family Doctor review
I finished reading a police procedural set in contemporary times in Northern China. Thief of Souls
by Brian Klingborg.My 3.5 star review (rounded to 3): https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I completely enjoyed both the story and the audio narration of Honeybee by Aussie author Craig Silvey. Sam is only 14 years old, but it's been a long 14 years when you can't trust anybody. Loved it!

I was surprised how much I enjoyed that book. the blurb didn't really appeal to me and often when I read overly hyped books I am disappointed, but that one was really good. I listened to the audio, which I think was a great choice. It reminded me of an old band documentary.
