Imperfect Lives Is a mystery that features a killer for hire and some of those impacted: how could I resist! More of C.J. Washington's work is definitely on my TBR. 5★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I'm never disappointed when I listen to Adjoa Andoh's narration of any of Alexander McCall Smith's No 1 Ladies Detective Agency novel, From a Far and Lovely Country is no exception. 5★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
I felt there was a good story in here waiting to get out with the help of a good editor. Lots of interesting events based on real life experiences, but overshadowed by the larger than life main character and the main story wasn't introduced until half way through and rushed.
