PattyMacDotComma | 3297 comments Women's words - finally found? Imaginative Aussie author Pip Williams's young character, Esme, wants to put together The Dictionary of Lost Words. Why were all the ignored words for, by, and about women considered dirty? (Many still are.)

I was really surprised by how much I ended up enjoying this book. It is not something I would usually read, and it jumped around a bit at first, but it ended up being a wonderful read.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9973 comments It's five years since I read the first two books in Aussie author Hugh McGinlay's Catherine Kint series, but I don't remember them being quite as good as the third book, just out, Bodysurfing. This is a fun cosy mystery series and the latest instalment is McGinlay's best yet.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9973 comments Sean Barrett is exactly the right narrator for the audiobooks of Mick Herron's Slough House series, especially with his gravelly-voiced rendition of Jackson Lamb. 5★s for Joe Country.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9973 comments I am a little late to the party with the sixth book in the Brighton Mysteries series by Elly Griffiths, The Midnight Hour, but I have a good excuse: I had to read the three previous books to bring me up to speed. So now I patiently wait for the next book.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9973 comments The second book in Robert Dugoni's Charles Jenkins series, The Last Agent is just as much of a rollercoaster ride as the first. Addictive spy drama.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9973 comments Really, Mick Herron's Jackson Lamb books are so good, it's an absolute pleasure to revisit them, especially when narrated by Sean Barrett, whose gravelly voice is perfect for a certain obnoxious character.
5★s for Slough House
