pickIn rural Australia, 2 women have gone missing. The body of the first has been found and the second is sought, along with the suspected killer, horrifying this small community. We mainly follow the lead investigator here, but the cast of characters is (too) broad. There‘s a great red herring, but the vast cast sometimes made this confusing. A low pick for me.
pickIt‘s been a while since I enjoyed a book as much as I did this one. It‘s set me off researching other books. Watching Gina Chick on Who Do You Think You are and filling in the pieces not available to Suzanne when she wrote this book 30 years ago. How much we inherit and how much is environmental and then comes the choices we make. So interesting. Loved loved loved it.
so-soAn ex library book I got it not knowing it was short stories. I‘m not a fan of short stories. I was in my younger days. Anyway I gave this a go. The best story was the last one which was titled Australia Day. So that made me glad I had persevered and made it to the end. A story I feel is probably close to the authors heart.
My local book club chose ‘Australia‘ as the theme this time. Luckily I had a copy of the selected book - my daughter bought a signed edition for me for Christmas 2023. I‘m looking forward to getting stuck in as Kate Morton is one of my favourite authors.
More book swap raids on the way home from ballet on Sunday afternoon.
pickThis book will stay with me for a while. Knowing the authors background and that she died the year this was published made this a thoughtful read for me. A story about relationships, living and dying and more. I loved it. I‘ve read a couple of her books now and loved them all. A talent lost too soon.
Tonight‘s #hyggehourreadathon selection.
Scores from my building‘s book swap last Friday night after a disastrous ballet performance where my classical group created chaos on stage.
Yesterday‘s op shop purchases after my 3 hours of ballet for the grand total of $39. So relaxing. Nowhere to be and the only thing to do was go home for a wine and a stretch and seafood salad for lunch. Love my weekends.
