I can now post my review of The Last Protector
by Simon Gervais. It has a powerful and shocking start, but it doesn’t stop there. Action, suspense, treachery, and intrigue keep this novel moving at a terrific pace. My 4 star review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Just finished this and it was amazing. Easy read but thought provoking Raising Hell - A Life of Activism https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09LS36DJM/...

I'm enjoying them all, but need to find my focus so I can finally finish some of them!
I can now post my review for The Texas Job
by Reavis Z. Wortham. It gives readers a view of East Texas in 1931 when a huge oil field has been found and towns are exploding with people, oil wells, and the good and bad that came with it. Texas Ranger Tom Bell is tracking a fugitive murderer. Overall, this book was an engaging and action-filled crime thriller in a historical setting that kept me turning the pages.My 4 star review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Gift for fans, old or young! Rule the music scene like Queen Beyoncé Knowles by Caroline Moss is a colourful, informative, graphic and text bio of a little girl who worked her heart out to become a world-famous entertainer. More than pictures.
5★ Link to my Beyoncé review with many illustrations.
The Way it is Now, by Aussie author Garry Disher, is the latest addition to his popular mysteries. Small, unspoiled beach town, old disappearance (crime?), and old wounds make for good reading.
4★ Link to my review of The Way it is Now
Finlay Donovan Is Killing It by Elle CosimanoThis was a very fun revenge fantasy thriller to read after much heavier fare.

"Funny, Christine! Those are the exact same two books I just got from the library!
I just finished Why She Left
. It was a pretty average read. Not bad, but nothing really special. Why She Left review
The Annotated Lolita by Vladimir NabokovControversial and disquieting but deserving of its status as a classic -
My review - www.Goodreads.com/review/show/4281619701
The highly anticipated Devotion, by acclaimed Aussie author Hannah Kent, is not only a tale of devoted religious migrants to Australia in the early 1800s, it is also an unusual, exquisite love story.
4★ Link to my review of Devotion
I am currently reading The Orphan Collector and there is one main character that I dislike probably more than any other character ever. I'm hoping to finish the book today and curious as to what will happen to her. She can't just live happily ever after. She's bound to get herself tangled up eventually.
This Shining Life by Harriet Kline has a very pretty cover showing a young boy, after his dad has died, looking for what makes life worth living.
3.5★ Link to my Shining Life review
I can now post my review of The Witching Tree
by Alice Blanchard.This is the third book in the Natalie Lockhart series. It's an excellent atmospheric police procedural with some romance. A dramatic and heartbreaking opening is memorable and immediately hooked me.
My 4 star review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Death at Victoria Dock is #4 in the Phryne Fisher mystery series by Aussie author Kerry Greenwood, and I enjoyed it as much as the previous adventures of this clever siren and amateur detective in 1920s Australia.
4★ Link to my review of Death at Victoria Dock
Sea Storm by Andrew MayneThe Florida Underwater Investigation Unit pursue the attacker of a massive cruise ship and find a conspiracy.

The Moral Landscape: How Science Can Determine Human ValuesLooking forward to this one. I am a fan of much of Harris' works
I just finished Wish You Were Here

I finished The Deepest of Secrets
by Kelley Armstrong. This is the seventh book in the Rockton series and is likely the series finale.My 4 star review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I can now post my review of Cry Wolf
by Hans Rosenfeldt. This one is shocking, suspenseful, violent, and heartbreaking and set in and around Haparanda, Sweden. It has aspects of both a crime thriller and a police procedural. Readers should be aware that there are some gruesome details and some chilling and emotional scenes.My 4 star review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I finished reading Getting Clean With Stevie Green
by Swan Huntley. I needed to read something different and went with this one that I got via a widget from the publisher.My 3.5 rounded to 4 star review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I just finished The Maid. It was an interesting story about a maid who struggles with social cues and gets caught up in a murder at the hotel she works at. It was another 3.5★ read for me rounded up.
