Ruthless by Anne Mette Hancock is the third book in her nordic noir series featuring journalist Heloise Kaldan and DS Erik Schäfer. This one is quite dark with Heloise investigating a cold case of a missing woman in Jutland. review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Scareground by Angela Kecojevic
Rarely does a middle-grade book leave me with mixed feelings. This had potential, but probably needed a more experienced author.

My review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Almost everyone, whether they're aware of it or not, has heard music by Mozart. This children's introduction by Mª Isabel Sánchez Vegara is another in the Little People, BIG DREAMS series. He was an amazing child prodigy.
My review of Mozart with several illustrations

A Girl Called Eel is an unusual stream of consciousness story written by Comorian author Ali Zamir in which a shipwrecked teenage girl in Comoros recounts her life story. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ here is my review
Taking Flight by Adrian R. Magnuson. DNF at page 143 - loved the birds, hated the wrapped-up-in-themselves characters.
The Lake House by Australian author Kate Morton is a beautifully written, slow and luxurious book with a ruined house in Cornwall, a mystery reaching back to the 1930s and some well fleshed out characters. Here is my review
Debesa, the story of Frank and Katie Rodriguez is a memoir by Nigena (Nyikina) woman Cindy Solonec about her family’s life on a sheep station in the remote West Kimberley region of Western Australia. ⭐⭐⭐⭐ here is my review (AA)
