Read: The Three-Body Problem by Liu Cixin ★★★☆☆ 📚
I found the Cultural Revolution section interesting, the detective predictable, the physics and harder sci-fi lost me. I did finish it though.

Read: Treacle Walker by Alan Garner ★★★☆☆ 📚
Short full of allegory, symbolism & english folklore, most of which I am sure I missed, but I enjoyed listening to the strange dialect & nonsense words.

Read: Oh William! by Elizabeth Strout ★★★☆☆ 📚
I think I liked this better than the original Lucy and not nearly as much as the Olive books. I think I prefer her older characters.

Read: The Terracotta dog, by Andrea Camilleri ★★★☆☆ 📚
Another Montalbano, easy read, and 99p. The food is the best part. I might read a more recent one to see how things develop and call it quits with this series for a while.

Read: The Mercies by Kiran Millwood Hargrave ★★★☆☆ 📚
Really interesting setting & background, remote 1600s Norway & witch hunting following the pattern of King James. The story flowed along but no real surprises.

Read: The Shape of Water, by Andrea Camilleri ★★★☆☆ 📚
Turns out I must have read this years ago. And seen the episode of the T.V. series I think. A light read somewhat non-woke language here and there, mouthwatering food descriptions.
