46% Better Than Dave by Alastair Puddick

I am working my way closer to the middle of the year and the mid-year stats I usually do! Since I have not yet documented any of my reads for the year, I see a lot of work in the next week or so! This is another of m backlist reads. It is a book…

Bad Day in Minsk by Jonathan Pinnock

I've read and reviewed the previous three books in the series I would not recommend picking this up without having read any of the previous books. The crazy antics here make more sense when coupled with the equally crazy events of the last few times we met Tom Winscombe and the people associated with him…

An Accidental Royal Kidnap (Royally Funny #1) by Paul Mathews

This was a very random book that I decided to pick up. The dialogues and sentences were constructed in a very entertaining manner. I would have enjoyed it more if not for some repetitive imagery that would have worked with just a mention instead of iterating multiple times in the book. This put me off…

The Scam List by Kurt Dinan

This is a light book with a topic that is best not drilled into for deeper meaning. The lead protagonist is a smart-talking boy whose father is in prison for the very thing he sets out to do.The legal boundaries of the narrative are blurred, and the whole situation is very filmy. Boone ends up…

Wicked Epic Adventures: Another Wallace the Brave Collection by Will Henry

I have read and reviewed two other books by this author and this collection felt as good, if not better than the others. Wallace and his friends lead simple lives with some lofty ideas at times. They live in a small town, with limited people who make appearances ( seagulls, and one in particular also…

You Couldn’t Make It Up…!: Unpublished Letters to The Daily Telegraph by Kate Moore

When I was younger, I loved looking at letters to editors from magazines like the Reader's digest. I do not remember which version we got, but they did have people from other parts of the world and fewer contributions from India locally. This changed over the years, and so did the humour, but I remember…

The Fatal Flying Affair (Lady Hardcastle Mysteries #7) by T.E. Kinsey

If you have the time, inclination and the patience, I highly recommend reading my older reviews. The gushing does come forth quite obviously for this series. Narrated by Elizabeth Kowelden There are few things more satisfying than a great series with every book as good, if not better than the last. Throw in a splash…

She’s Got The Guns: A Suite #45 Novel by M.O. Mack

I hit the 80% milestone on NetGalley and then did the obvious self destruct thing of requesting more!! This book reminded me of Investigation, Mediation, Vindication (The Many Travails of John Smith, #1) by Chris Tullbane! Once in a while, when I am in the mood for something wacky, I pick up a book with a…
