I have read quite a few books by this author. The one most connected to this one was: Snowflakes Over The Starfish Café. Although I have read quite a few books by this author and some continuing and connected series', I have a hit and miss with some of them. In the previous series that… Continue reading Spring Tides at The Starfish Café by Jessica Redland

Murder Under Her Skin by Stephen Spotswood
This is a highly engrossing series. It veers a little away from my more traditional historical fiction reads, which have a sleuthing duo, but they have happier lives (or at least histories).I would not recommend reading this without having read the first. WillowJean has had a non-traditional upbringing, and in this installment we get to… Continue reading Murder Under Her Skin by Stephen Spotswood
The Memoirs of Stockholm Sven by Nathaniel Ian Miller
I am not one who is usually well served by hype. I tend to not 'get' what people are finding exciting from a particular book making its rounds. When I do understand the point and join my voice with all those clamouring, it is a joy all on its own. This is one such book. I initially… Continue reading The Memoirs of Stockholm Sven by Nathaniel Ian Miller
A Spell of Rowans by Byrd Nash
Truthfully, it was the cover that drew my eye to this book. There was something very haunting about the presentation. Coupled with the title, I knew I wanted to read it. It took me a while to get to it, but once I did, I really enjoyed it.It was a highly unexpected setting. I would… Continue reading A Spell of Rowans by Byrd Nash
The Lost Man by Jane Harper
I have seen Jane Harper's books talked about a lot on the blogosphere. I may have tried to get access to some advance reviewer copies and failed. When I saw this book sitting on a shelf at my library, it was only natural that I grabbed it and brought it home.I was a little surprised… Continue reading The Lost Man by Jane Harper
The Peppermint Tea Chronicles (44 Scotland Street #13) by Alexander McCall Smith
It has been almost forever since I read a book by this author. While I was still in HK and visiting my library weekly, I would end up picking one or the other from any of the series' I am familiar with. I saw this sitting pretty in my local library, and nostalgia hit me… Continue reading The Peppermint Tea Chronicles (44 Scotland Street #13) by Alexander McCall Smith
The White Lady by Quentin Zuttion
I keep picking up these Europe comics and even knowing what I am in for, continue to be surprised by the depth that these books explore. The topics are things I would not read about otherwise, at least not in this form. The words are few, the colours fewer and they convey a lot more… Continue reading The White Lady by Quentin Zuttion
Sunny by Sukh Ojla
There was something entirely enjoyable about this book. The point of view is not one I am familiar with or at least the few I have had the opportunity to read did not agree with me. This was not the case here. If anything, I would say only the incessant reference to her own physical… Continue reading Sunny by Sukh Ojla
