Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9985 comments You can count on Alexander McCall Smith to entertain even as he has his characters philosophising. 5★s for The Conditions of Unconditional Love

Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9985 comments While parts of The Desk from Hoboken were interesting, further books in the Genealogy Mystery series by M.L. Condike won’t be on my TBR. 3★s

The Story Collector by Evie Gaughan
I had liked ‘The Lost Bookshop’ by this author, but this book was mostly a dud.

PattyMacDotComma | 3310 comments Pulitzer-winner Elizabeth Strout has asked her much-loved characters to Tell Me Everything, and some of them open up. I reckon she should add I'm listening! because that's why they're talking. Wonderful book. Love it, of course.

The Unseen By N.L. Westaway

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

3⭐️s Though equally as good as book #1, disappointingly this one suffers the same lack of necessary editing. I have deducted two ⭐️s for this alone.

PattyMacDotComma | 3310 comments I generally prefer reading to listening, but audio done well can add a lot to a story.

Darkness Visible by Arvind Ethan David is like a full-blown radio play, part of Audible's Earworm series of short stories. Very entertaining.

Beyond Ivy Walls by Rachel Fordham
A charming old-world clean romance. I don't often pick up romance books, but make an exception for a few authors. Rachel Fordham is one of them.

Sandysbookaday (taking a step back for a while) (sandyj21) | 350 comments ⭐⭐⭐.8 for Interpretations of Love by Jane Campbell Interpretations of Love by Jane Campbell https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Both plot and cast of characters will remain with me for a long time to come and I will probably revise my rating upwards when I have thought more about it. 💖📚

The Lost Story by Meg Shaffer
While this is getting mixed reviews, it actually worked pretty well for me. Don't expect a faithful Narnia retelling. Great for portal fantasy lovers.
