Read: What time is love by Holly Williams ★★★☆☆ 📚
Quite an interesting time travel remix, I did want to find out what happened to the first couple. The second incarnation less compelling.

Read: Knots and Crosses by Ian Rankin ★★★☆☆ 📚
First Rebus, a darker character than the later series (which I’ve read quite a few in random order). I got the first 3 in a kindle 99p bundle so will read the next couple too, not just yet.
Read: Heresy (Giordano Bruno, #1) by S.J. Parris ★★★☆☆ 📚
The rather weird idea of historical characters solving murder is good fun.
Read The Second Murderer: A Philip Marlowe Novel by Denise Mina ★★★☆☆ 📚
Pretty good job updating Marlow a little for our more sensitive times.
Read: Dead Lions by Mick Herron ★★★☆☆ 📚
The second in the series, grubby comic spies. I think I’ll keep reading these now and again.
Read: The Wych Elm by Tana French ★★★☆☆ 📚
Narrator with a bump on the head and confused brain. Murder from the past. The story unwinds & unfolds in a teasing way.
Read: Slow Horses by Mick Herron ★★★ 📚
Enjoyed this, even though I’d seen the TV series.
Read: Miss Garnet’s Angel by Salley Vickers ★★★☆☆ 📚
Spinster reborn in Venice, kept me going, somewhat puzzled and not quite convinced by end.
Read: William Blake vs the World by John Higgs ★★★☆☆ 📚
Years ago I enjoyed the songs & Marriage of Heaven and Hell, I was baffled by Blake’s prophetic books. Light is shone on this personal mythology. Amusing links to how Blake is used now, e.g. Jerusalem.
Read: Where My Heart Used to Beat by Sebastian Faulks ★★★☆☆
Enjoys this life told through wars, love & remembering.
