pick3.5/5
I haven‘t read much Nordic noir, so I don‘t have much to compare this to, but I did enjoy this. Some parts were predictable but there were definitely still some twists and turns. The ending was a bit long-winded for me and the detectives weren‘t my favorite — broken but still seemed shallow. However, it was still entertaining and will keep an eye out more from this author.

I loved Sweatpea and In Bloom so have high expectations for this #ARC by the same author. So pleased I won a copy!

so-soRhys Bowen‘s new book drops February 2020 and, if you‘re a fan of Queen Victoria and all things Victorian, you may enjoy this novel about a young gentlewoman, Isabella, who falls on hard times and discovers she loves to cook. Assuming a false identity, Bella ends up cooking for the royal household and travels to Nice. Not as funny as the “Her Royal Spyness” series and lacking the depth of “In Fairleigh Field,” it‘s still a fun light read. #arc
Got this #Goodreads #Giveaway #ARC in the mail today. And as much as I'm enjoying The Last Time I Lied.... I really want to start this one.
pickIn a world seemingly full of predators, one brave nun of nearly 70, Sister Evelyn, protects her traumatized and diverse little flock of women with everything she‘s got. #domesticviolence #arc Full review at https://www.librarything.com/work/23660868/reviews/174306236
pickIt was so-so until the author got to the part about her Legal Aid advocacy for poor women in Kentucky, and the book filled with fire and passion. I liked the parts about the tough women in her family, and she touches on social issues in Appalachia, but I feel the book tried to cover too much. It was sweet, and I am full of admiration for the author for coming home and pitching in instead of dissing the place from afar. #arc
