Here's my review of The Guilty Girl by Irish author Patricia Gibney, and the eleventh in her D.I. Lottie Parker series.

Grown Ups is a very contemporary story complicated by the timeless difficulties of sibling rivalry. I'd hoped it might be a bit like a Sally-Rooney-ish story of modern Norway, and in some ways it was, but overall not something to get excited about.https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

My review of
Her Dying Day by Mindy Carlson, where a film making student is making a documentary about the disappearance of a popular writer .https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
"The Seawomen" by Chloe Timms
The cover points us in a different direction but the story is worth a go. Brilliant for a debut work. Dystopian, atmospheric, somewhat slow.

Someone Else's Child by Aussie Author Kylie OrrMy review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Starting any Mick Herron book fills me with anticipatory glee at the prospect of so many delicious and darkly funny moments set within the clever plot. Bad Actors is another 5★ read: Mick Herron never disappoints.https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

My review of Oleander City: A Novel Based on a True Story by Matt Bondurant
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I was surprised to learn I was a bit mistaken about the significance of the actual date, June 19. The Juneteenth Story: Celebrating the End of Slavery in the United States by Alliah L. Agostini set me straight in this well-illustrated book for kids (and ignorant grown-ups like me). 
4★ My Juneteenth Story review with pictures
