5 fabulous stars for this historical fiction/contemporary fiction/romance by an Aussie Author
The Quarantine Station by Michelle Montebellohttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I loved Aussie author Garry Disher's country cop mystery in the dry, dusty (dangerous) outback of South Australia. Peace is the 2nd book featuring demoted cop Hirsch. The powers-that-be did not appreciate his whistle-blowing.
4.5~5★ Link to my review of Peace
The Last Reunion by Aussie Kayte Nunn is historical fiction with a war story, romance, and mystery.

I have deliberately chosen not to watch the new series of The Handmaid's Tale, because I just couldn't face another bunch of hours watching the systematic subjugation and degradation of women ... not right now, maybe later.So, instead I read Faithless in Death by J.D. Robb...

I assume true crime fits this group's parameters? Here's my review of Blood in the Water: A True Story of Revenge in the Maritimes by Silver Donald Cameron. It's a fascinating account of a controversial crime that occurred in Nova Scotia, Canada in 2013. And it's recommended by Margaret Atwood!

My review of Shatter The Bones by Stuart MacBride, #7 in his Logan McRae series. This would have to be one of my all-time favourite crime series, and I'm trying not to plough through them too quickly!
