Rachel (mimbza) | 697 comments The Pearl Thief by Noor Al Noaimi The Pearl Thief is a short, sweet novella by debut Bahraini author Noor Al Noaimi. It is set in Bahrain when it had fishing villages and a pearling industry. Here is my review

Carolyn | 9840 comments Recommended for fans of action packed thrillers featuring a unique man of action - Dez Limerick, a likeable cheeky, short stocky Brit with a sense of humour, who's never found a door or gateway he couldn't open.

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9975 comments The narrator is so important for the enjoyment of an audio and, for Mikki Brammer's wonderful debut novel, The Collected Regrets of Clover, Jennifer Pickens was the perfect choice. The interview with the author is an added bonus. 5★s

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9975 comments The eye-catching cover drew me in to the first Audrey Markum book by Linda Cotton Jeffries, after which the second book, Picturing the Dark became a must-read for me. 5★s

PattyMacDotComma | 3299 comments This is another good sci-fi story from Amazon's The Far Reaches collection. Falling Bodies by Rebecca Roanhorse has a more advanced "offshore detention" than what is currently used.

PattyMacDotComma | 3299 comments A Sydney brothel in 1930 may not sound like a YA setting, but I think teens would enjoy young Violet. Even the title, Violet Kelly and the Jade Owl, sounds good. It's a mystery with some local history by Aussie author Fiona Britton
