July 2021 Books Vs Moods

I did not stick with my plan for July, but on the whole it went better than I expected in terms of posting (which is very revealing!). My post for the last month was: June 2021 Books Vs Moods. I once again have to warn that I have a ton of reviews to go which I…

Psycho by the Sea by Lynne Truss

I have reviewed another book by the author in this series : here Narrated by Matt Green I liked the other book that I read out of context in the series but was not fascinated by it. When I saw this as an audiobook, I had to give it another shot.I loved the narrative style…

Love and Miss Harris (The Company of Fools Book 1) by Peter Maughan

I have read two books by the author of a different series: The Cuckoos of Batch MagnaThe Ghost of Artemus Strange The two other books I read by the author focused on a village and its inhabitants. There were discussions about wealth and survival amidst general humour that I could get.There were moments in this…

Written in Bone by Sue Black

See Her Die (Bree Taggert #2) by Melinda Leigh

Mind Thief: The Story of Alzheimer’s by Han Yu

This is a frightening disease, and the book traces its history from the man it got its name from and the different types. There is no conclusion or speculation about the cures, but detailed information on all the investigations is provided.I felt like it worked as a combination for laypeople and people who have knowledge…
