When she passed away last year she had said she didn't want whatever was unfinished, published after her death."Yes, I read that also Brenda, so we have to be satisfied with "Y". But I don't mind that, I am not really a fan of the recent trend for other people to keep writing for dead people.
Just finished Only the Innocent by Rachel Abbott.I liked this book, but there were things about the writing style at times that irritated me. Too many conversations/letters interrupted and not finished (I suppose to build suspense?) when in reality it was easy to easy to see where the conversations were going, so having them drawn out over days, weeks, years was just annoying.
But still,

I agree - they can't possibly be the same!

Just finished The Cold Cold Ground by Adrian McKinty.I remember clearly all the significant events mentioned in this book, the hunger strikes, the yorkshire ripper, attempted assassination of the Pope and of course Charles and Di's wedding. But I don't remember them as all happening in the same time period, and it was interesting to revisit these times.
I listened to this one on audio, and the narrator was great, with the hard, flat northern ireland accent adding to the experience. I would recommend this audio to everyone.
★★★★☆
This a good series when you want a light and fast paced thriller: The 9th Judgement by James Patterson and Maxine Paetro 4★https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

Better late than never?!
Just finished Death and Judgment by Donna Leon aka A Venetian Reckoning#4 in the Brunetti series, and another quiet, enjoyable read and I become more fond of Brunetti with each book.

Just finished Quarry's Vote by Max Allan Collins
My Review: https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
This is such a good series - I hope we don't have to wait too long for the next instalment! London Rules by Mick Herron 5★
https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
Compelling true-crime. If it weren't so well-documented, it would be hard to believe.Killers of the Flower Moon: The Osage Murders and the Birth of the FBI by David Grann reads like a novel with an outrageous plot that will outrage YOU!

SNAP!
A second look with the benefit of hindsight. Talented Aussie author Aoife Clifford has written her second book Second Sight. Lots of seconds there, but it's a first-rate read!
