This is the extraordinary true story of a woman who joins her husband in the Arctic and lives in a primitive hut for a year, absolutely falling in love with the polar region and with the wild lifestyle. She has such an engaging personality and writing style. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

My partner loves Fred‘s books. Fred is a French woman so this is a translation. It took me a while to get into the story. Sorting out the French names in my head. A bit quirky and an ending I did not see coming. Glad I kept reading.

I had to bail after the first couple chapters. Horrific details on dog death & suffering.

I just can‘t. Huskies are *dogs*! They want what all domesticated dogs want: Loving care, good food, comfortable rest & companionship with their humans.

They deserve that. Give them that, not this miserable existence. 💧💧💧

The Runner | Peter May

The Runner is book 5 in Peter May‘s China Thrillers series. It‘s another fast-paced thriller that kept me turning the pages! Li Yan and Margaret Campbell are back in China, investigating the suspicious deaths of several top athletes. I enjoyed the mystery, but the resolution felt a little too neatly packaged. Despite that, if you‘re a fan of a good, suspenseful mystery, in an international setting, it‘s worth picking up. ⭐️⭐️⭐️💫/ 5 (3.5/5) ❤️📚

It's been a while since I was in the parisian world of commisaire Adamsberg, the enigmatic parisian detective who relies on his intuition. In this one, a crime from his childhood obsesses him with murder by stabbing with a trident. The plot takes him to Ottawa, where crimes follow him. Enjoyable series 3* and will read next at some point.
