Love in the Time of Bertie by Alexander McCall Smith

This humorous series follows the lives of a group of people who reside in Edinburgh's "New Town" neighborhood. The characters and situations are fun, especially the children.

Good book for a chuckle. 3.5 stars

Just finished - Mercy by David Baldacci

This is the 4th and final book in the Atlee Pine and brings the long search for her sister, Mercy, to a conclusion. In true Baldacci style this is a fact-paced thriller but it doesn't quite hit the heights of the previous book in the series.

He Done Her Wrong by Stuart Kaminsky

Toby Peters #8. April 1942. Someone has stolen Mae West's newly-written autobiography and Toby has the job of retrieving it. I love this series but this is the slowest and weakest entry so far. There's very little Mae in the story and Kaminsky wastes 30 pages keeping Toby locked in an insane asylum. 2 stars.

Now starting LYING BESIDE YOU by Michael Robotham. This is the third novel in the series featuring forensic psychologist Cyrus Haven and the girl-with-no-past Evie Cormac. The first two novels in the series were terrific, so I am hoping this one continues that trend.

I'm reading The Stranger Diaries by Elly Griffiths. So far it's okay but I'm early in the book.

[Sam]

Recently read James Kestrel's Edgar-winning Five Decembers. Epic tale with a WWII background; the Decembers in question are those from 1941 to 1945. Big-canvas tale of what war does to people.

Comedy Comedy Comedy Drama by Bob Odenkirk

Bob Odenkirk, known for Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul, is a comic at heart. In this memoir, Bob traces the arc of his career, from funny skits to drama.

Good book. 4 stars

My review of Murder Among the Roses by Liz Fielding

https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

[Damo]

The second book in the Danny Ryan trilogy is very much a transitional story that takes us from the gang wars in Providence to the West Coast and life as a fugitive. I gave it 4 stars but I'm expecting it to lead to bigger things in book 3.

I always enjoy C.S. Harris's Sebastian St Cyr historical mystery series. What Darkness Brings involves the theft of the French crown jewels, murder, and spies.
4.5~5★ My review of What Darkness Brings

[PattyMacDotComma]

David Hockney by Maria Isabel Sanchez Vegara and artist Ana Albero is surprisingly open about his sexuality in this book for small children. I'm glad today's kids may not grow up as ignorant as a lot of us probably did.
5★ My review of David Hockney with several illustrations and photos
