Happy New Year!!!

Here are my December reads:

Good Reads

The Other Black Girl - Zakiya Dalila Harris
An interesting first novel set in the publishing world. Listened to the audio version which was narrated by Aja Naomi King, Joniece Abbott-Pratt, Heather Alicia Simms, and Bahni Turpin.

The Girl Who Died - Ragnar Jónasson
Very atmospheric suspense set in a small remote village in Iceland. Listened to the audio version which was narrated by Amanda Redman.

The Secret House of Death - Ruth Rendell
A nicely done tale of domestic suspense written in the late sixties. Listened to the audio version which was well narrated by Simon Russell Beale.

Happy New year Sandi! three very good audio books for you this month. I agree, The Other Black Girl was a very interesting first novel. I am still not sure how to characterize it and was tempted to put it on my top list.

I’ll have to try The Girl Who Died. The different culture and remote setting interests me.

I think I read a book by Ruth Rendell a long, long, long time ago!

Sandi I'm glad you enjoyed The Girl Who Died. I had set it aside when I heard it wasn't a traditional murder mystery. Also glad you liked The Other Black Girl.
