A couple goes into the crime lab and holds people hostage because the police failed to find their missing daughter several years ago. They threaten to burn critical evidence of major crimes until the police find their daughter. This is a quick thriller that was really good. If you like James Patterson, you‘ll probably like this one.
Was 🏡 for the hols but leaving 2morrow. Went 2 Salvos with mum 2day. She found me the linen tea towel (a steal at $2) of my fav country & godson & I scored some $1 📚! Lots of dvds to watch over the school holidays plus some crafty projects. The 👖 are Uniqlo for $6 & perfect 4 work. They‘ve functional pockets! There r some travel sized toiletries 4 my waterskiing trip in a wk or so & 1 can never have enough tea strainers. Total🟰 $34.40.
Just finished watching season 2 - was hooked just as throughly! This season featured an actor who was in a show I watched growing up so it did hurt a little to see him play a baddie.
Reading the book synopsis makes me think that storylines were blended - if anyone has read it - I am curious about the fate of Twist. Unfortunately it hasn‘t got enough traction online for someone to have written one of those handy book vs show articles.

pickThis was a really good book. It was heartbreaking and inspiring at the same time.
⭐⭐⭐⭐
panWell that was offensive. I kept reading because of the audacity!
White savior, incorrect information about an existing culture, and cultural insensitivity

pickCraig Silvey is a local (Perth Western Australian) author. I‘ve read all of his books and this is his latest, a children‘s book that has just been made into a movie that I‘m going to see this weekend. If anyone is looking for Australian fiction recommendations my favourites written by Silvey are Jasper Jones and Rhubarb. #ozfiction
pickAnother perfect day for reading outside . Lucky yet again to find this in an op shop for $2. Published in 2011 , it took me to a country town in West Aust and to Sydney and around the Quay with the Opera House and the Bridge. It follows 4very different characters who visit the Quay , their thoughts , their stories . The writing is superb. 🤞I find more of her earlier works.
We have a shop here that sells library discards and other second hand books. Money goes to the Para quads. It is next to a Para quad op shop. It‘s a great place for book lovers and not too far from where we live. I was so happy to find these two books. The tagged book by amazing Aussie author who died way too young. Other was a favourite of my mums. . It will join my TBR shelf.
Found this in a little side bookshop in Newcastle.
