Once Upon a River by Diane Setterfield

This year is shaping out to be quite an interesting one in every way. I went back to my language class, something that I started last year. I had effectively been a recluse since I arrived in HK and it felt good to feel like part of something slightly bigger than my home ;). My…

Wildflower Park 1 & 2 by Bella Osborne

I received an advance copy of the first three parts of the series thanks to the publishers and NetGalley. I am reviewing only the first two here, so that I can review the next two when I get my hands on the fourth. The only error I made was not to check the size of…

The Fellowship of the Ring by J.R.R Tolkien

  Narrator: Rob Inglis There is nothing much I can say about this book that has not been said over the past fifty plus years that this book has been in print. I can only comment on my enjoyment of it and or anything else that comes to my mind as I put this down…

Two Can Keep a Secret by Karen M. McManus

I last reviewed the book One of Us Is Lying by Karen M. McManus and enjoyed the book. I was lucky to be sent a pre approved widget on NetGalley by Penguin Random House and I jumped at the chance to read an advance copy (I seem to be jumping a lot lately, but what can I…

Running from Arrows (A Running Store Mystery #2) by T.C. Wescott

The last book by this author that I reviewed was :  . I saw this book up for review on NetGalley and since I have pre approval from the publishers (thankfully) I jumped at the chance and downloaded it. Now, usually I would have pushed it down the line considering I have such a long…
