PattyMacDotComma Sulari Gentill's exceptional Rowland Sinclair historical mystery series takes her four Australian characters to 1930's Shanghai in Shanghai Secrets. What a terrifying place it was - but a great read!

Woman Reading  (is away exploring) | 392 comments I needed a break from some grim nonfictions, and so I read UF/PNR Alpha Night (Psy-Changeling Trinity, #4; Psy-Changeling, #19) by Nalini Singh Alpha Night by Nalini Singh. This was distracting but also disappointing given what Singh is able to write.

PattyMacDotComma How could I not love The Kalahari Typing School for Men, the 4th book in the series of The No. 1 Ladies' Detective Agency by Alexander McCall Smith? These are always enjoyable and a gentle reminder that life in rural Botswana is a far cry from that of most readers.

Woman Reading  (is away exploring) | 392 comments I finished Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier Rebecca by Daphne du Maurier - a literary masterpiece. Despite being a tremendous Alfred Hitchcock fan, I never managed to see his film adaptation in its entirety, but I now see why it was chosen.

PattyMacDotComma I've not read any of Jeffery Deaver's work before, so his short story Turning Point was my introduction. Loved it! Finding RDK, the Russian Doll Killer, was cleverly done.

PattyMacDotComma Shuggie Bain, the autobiographical novel by Scottish-born author Douglas Stuart, tells of a loving, queer, little boy who adores his beautiful, alcoholic mum. It is heart-breakingly wonderful! Well-deserved winner of the 2020 Booker Prize.

Do you also follow the Hidden Legacy series?

David Allenson | 92 comments Oh, and I'm reading the Magic of Oz. I had binge read all the other Frank L. Baum Oz books when I was a child but the 13th book of the series was missing.

The KD series, as rough as it was, made me a fan of IA. I've read the entire Hidden Legacy series. Nevada and Rogan are reminiscent of Kate and Curran. Catalina and Aurelia seem to have been cast from a similar mold.

PattyMacDotComma This is designed for little kids, but adults will enjoy seeing how Charles Darwin made the scientific discoveries that changed our understanding of the world. Need I add that every school should have this one?
