We'll start 2021 with a new thread for our reviews - I'll close the old one a bit later when people have finished posting 2020 reviews.

Angela Verdenius (angelacatlover) | 67 comments I've just stepped off a horror run, so won't mention what I just finished ;-) BUT I have started Hangman (Timothy Blake #1) by Jack Heath , and this one looks to be a little off-the-wall!! Also written by an Aussie ;-)

Kerri_M | 790 comments Just finished The Nature of the Beast by Louise Penny, and enjoyed it as I always do her books - they have become my little rewards to myself! BUT the whole way through this book I have had the Bony M song as an earworm I couldn't get rid of (I wont say the name of the song as I dont want to spread the earworm, although I probably already have.)

So now I need to start another book FAST to try and get rid of it.

The Nature of the Beast (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache #11) by Louise Penny ★★★★

The only way to get rid of an ear worm is to sing another song - trouble is that usually becomes an ear worm too.

PattyMacDotComma | 821 comments A Clash of Spheres by P.F. Chisholm is the eighth in this favourite historical mystery series where the dashing Sir Robert Carey is always close to being assassinated! Scotland, 1592.

Always suspenseful!
