I just finished Best in Snow . It is a really fun series. I only started with the last book, but I plan to go back to the beginning soon.

my Best in Snow review

I'm currently reading Candy Coated Murder. It's a short book and I'm hoping it will feel a little festive. I'm also about to start Uncomfortable Conversations With a Black Man for my RL book club.

Dark Matter by S.W. Ahmed

Don't forget to remember! Having said that, you're probably remembering it all wrong anyway.

Neuroscientist Lisa Genova has got it all covered in Remember: The Science of Memory and the Art of Forgetting, which explains a lot about why we argue about memories and worry about dementia.

Interesting, easy read and excellent resource.

Aussie journalist and author Tim Ayliffe's John Bailey is the war-weary journo who discovers what working for The Greater Good really means. Dirty politicians, spies, criminals. Contemporary Sydney. Love it!

I'm reading a non-fiction book called _The Body Keeps the Score_ about how psychological trauma can affect physical health. It's quite interesting.The Body Keeps the Score: Brain, Mind, and Body in the Healing of Trauma

That sounds so interesting and is what I studied in college. I added it to my to read pile.

The Catch by Mick Herron
This is a novella featuring John Bachelor. While set in the same milieu as Herron's Slough House series, this story runs independently of it and can be read as a standalone.

I am currently reading Queen of Bedlam by Laura Purcell historical fiction.

[JoJo_theDodo]

Just finished Pilgrim at Tinker Creek
and even though it's a 4 star on Goodreads and it was highly recommended on a podcast I listen to, I really didn't enjoy it. Anyone else read this book? It's feels a bit odd when your in the minority of not liking a book.

I'm currently reading Tuesdays with Morrie
this is for part of the October challenge to read a book with a teacher/professor in it. I am also reading Meet me at the Museum

for the October challenge as the Author was 70 years old when she wrote the book.

What is it about kids and bottoms?! A Brief History of Underpants by Christine Van Zandt uses plays on words ("brief" history) and cartoons by Harry Briggs to tell interesting "back" stories from ancient times to the space age.

I do like a short story. Alexander McCall Smith has written a collection of stories inspired by early 20th-century photos, including the title story Pianos and Flowers: Brief Encounters of the Romantic Kind. I especially loved Blackmail!

Tim Winton is one of Australia's best and most-awarded authors and an all-time favourite of mine. An Open Swimmer was his first novel, written when he was still at uni, and his writing was already magic. I had some trouble with the story.

Stephen King is known for his horror thrillers, but this is just a good story about a ghost, stranded in the Horror House of the amusement park, Joyland. It's just what I felt like reading!

I can now post my review of The Chase by Lisa Harris.
The author brings plenty of action and suspense to this Christian crime thriller that’s set in and around Seattle, Washington. Overall, this was an edge-of-seat chase that kept me full engaged and was riveting, intriguing, and thrilling, and has the hint of a future romance.

I recently reviewed the Andy Warhol book from this series by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara, and he always makes me think of Marilyn Monroe, whose rise from lonely little girl to fabulous movie star is captured here (sadly no Warhol pictures).

The Incredible Winston Browne by Sean Dietrich is a warm, poignant heartstring-tugger about small town America in the 1950s. Readers will eat it up, I bet.

I can now post my review of Murder at Greysbridge by Andrea Carter. It's a well-written and entertaining cozy mystery. The author did a great job of giving me sense of place and transported me to the remote locale in Ireland.

What a fantastic cover and what an odd book. The 1800s were full of fortune-hunters, in all senses of the word, all over the world. Fortune by Aussie author Lenny Bartulin is wild historical fiction.

I finished The Starless Crown by James Rollins.
This is a change for Rollins although he did write fantasy early in his career. It's an epic fantasy. hat brings excitement, danger, and suspense to an adventurous journey that includes some unusual allies and some common enemies. With this first book in the Moon Fall series, he introduces the four main characters and does a fantastic job of building a world that is unique.
