I enjoyed just how the author portrayed the Queen‘s humanity in this book.She was quite likable to me & had me rooting for her! It‘s 1957, & Queen Elizabeth,new at her royal role,suspects someone among her father‘s courtiers intends to sabotage her reign in public.2 bodies are discovered in Chelsea that are possibly linked to her monarchy. She asks an ex-code breaker to help her unravel the truth. #serieslove2025 #4

Bookwormjillk I didn‘t know there were more of these! Yay! 2d
kspenmoll @Bookwormjillk I have #1 in my TBR but not the others, so I am reading out of order. I got this #4 thru Libby. There is a #5 being published this year. 2d

I'm definitely a #4 and a very close #5. I can't read while with family or at work, although I wish I could do the latter. 😂
What's your favorite time to read?

I spent my entire Sunday reading this book, and I‘m not mad at all. Another good psychological thriller from FM. Just when you think you‘ve figured it out, wrong there‘s an insane twist coming!! Book #5 in 2025

mcctrish @CatLass007 this is a Christmas candle, I didn‘t get it finished before Christmas and now I‘m wondering if I shouldn‘t have saved it for next year 1mo

So these are all the books I got for my bookish #adventcalendar 🙌🏻

I have only read 1 of these 👍🏻
Several are hardcovers 👍🏻
At first blush, many seem to be historical fiction - I could be wrong - and I‘m iffy on that. That‘s not my usual genre. We‘ll see.
🤷🏻‍♀️
Many are set in Pacific Rim/Asian countries. Which was part of the draw for me 👍🏻

Overall, I‘m looking forward to many of these books.
Glad I did this.

Ruthiella Nice pile of possibilities! I‘ve read and enjoyed the Atkinson title. 👍 1mo
Sweettartlaura @Ruthiella I am split on that series. I loved 1 & 3, loathed 2 & 4 🤷🏻‍♀️. I was ok with walking away from it … but now I just happen to have #5 💁🏻‍♀️😜. So I guess I‘ll have to give it a try 😉 1mo
Ruthiella Interesting! I‘ve enjoyed them all, but 3 is perhaps my favorite 1mo

Book 8 read this month. Short novella (96 pages). Two time lines: past, Ashley Smith, an American student, her experiences when was invited by a college “friend” Emma Chapman‘s, to spend Christmas at her house. There Ashley will fall in love and will know about a crime recently committed in the area. Present time, Ashley diary is read by someone. How these 2 time lines are connected?
I really liked the twists that occurred here. ⬇️

Gissy (Cont.) That ending remind me at some point The Kind Worth Killing but the conclusion is for those who liked Behind Her Eyes which I didn‘t like much. So I have mixed feelings with this story but I liked the way it was developed. 3/3.5⭐️ 1mo
