Hope you enjoy it Kylie. It's an amazing story that you wouldn't believe it if it was fictional.

Sharon wrote: "The Survivors by Jane Harper Wish list"Thanks Sharon - I've been waiting for this to pop up - obviously publication date has been pushed back from where it was originally.
Thanks Sharon!

Today I finished reading The Death of Vivek Oji, a very moving mystery, with themes of sexual and gender identity, set in Nigeria. It’s still on Read Now until 20 August.
Just finished
Deception by Gaslight which is still available for request. Good historical fiction/romance/mystery book. It appears to be a first in a series.
Has anyone started reading The Burning Island by Jock Serong yet? It’s not Preservation published under a new title is it?

Oh my goodness, I hope not!! Surely it would have been mentioned in the blurb Andrea. Does it seem similar?

It sounds like it's about the same character - Joshua Grayling - but the rest sounds different... Perhaps it's a sequel?

It's a sequel Andrea - Eliza Grayling is the daughter of Joshua Grayling who was a MC in Preservation

Marianne wrote: "Untrue till Death by Graham Brack now available for request"That's odd Marianne - that it's just been added when it's already published.

I agree, very strange

..."I just got a copy of Flying the Nest - Thanks for the heads up.
I just stumbled across
The Kingdom by Jo Nesbø that is available for request on NG. It is a new standalone, fingers crossed I can get this one!
Available for request:
The Survivors by Jane Harper
Letters from Berlin by Tania Blanchard
Magic Lessons by Alice Hoffman
Thanks for the heads-up, Kylie and Marianne!Garry Disher's brilliant Peace is also available for request - must be in advance of US release, as it was published in Australia last November.
I'd personally strongly recommend reading Bitter Wash Road first.
