PattyMacDotComma | 813 comments Struggling young author Junie is accused of racial passing, known as Yellowface, by social media critics in R.F. Kuang's novel. Good story - glad I'm not a publisher!

Kerri_M | 785 comments Just finished An Unwilling Accomplice - Charles Todd #6 in the Bess Crawford series.

I generally enjoy this series because of the historical setting, but this one stretched coincidence and credibility a bit too far, so only ★★★

Carolyn | 2078 comments Body of Lies (Gemma Woodstock #4) by Sarah Bailey Body of Lies by Sarah Bailey is the fourth in her Gemma Woodstock series. A good twisty mystery, but I thought the ending was unnecessarily implausible.

PattyMacDotComma | 813 comments The Seven by popular Aussie author Chris Hammer sees Ivan and Nell's homicide investigation uncover more deaths and disappearances in a town where wealthy landowners write their own rules. Great read and good as a standalone too.
