June 2020 Books Vs Moods

My last post for this recurring theme was May 2020 Books Vs Moods. I have a new 'mood' to try out this time! (Thanks Kate!) This month was not as great as expected, I was not enthusiastic in the reviews for the most part. I hope July will be different! This is my version of a…

Constable on the Hill (Constable Nick Mystery #1) by Nicholas Rhea

I was introduced to James Herriot quite early on thanks to an Aunt who had all the four omnibus editions. I saw that this book was on a similar line and decided to give it a shot. I have since found out that this was a very long-running series in Britain and even watched a…

Sunny Days and Sea Breezes by Carole Matthews

I need to preface my review that I really enjoyed Happiness for Beginners by Carole Matthews and that has significantly influenced my current review.

Everything You Are Kerry Anne King

Narrated by: Will Damron I picked this up solely on the basis of the cover appeal and that I was looking for a new type of book to read. This story has hints of magical realism woven through the lives of three unsuspecting music lovers. The innocuous beginning just indicates a 'special' musical instruments shop. How…
