Living Among The Dead

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This book crushed me. My normal practice is to begin to write, immediately upon closing a book, to let my impressions flow to form my review, raw and real. My feelings upon closing this book would not allow for this. Such a huge crushing weight settling on me made…

First Second Coming

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Where to start? This is a very unusual book. What do you get when you cross sci-fi /fantasy as in “Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy”, with a budding romance, ambitious philosophical yearnings, theological history, Mexican drug cartels, murder, money laundering, and last but not least, an earthly visitation by…

Better Brain

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 1/2 This book was written (and exhaustively researched) by two PHDs at the University of Calgary, one a Professor of Medicine and the other a Clinical Psychologist. What a terrific read! The premise of the book is simple - the authors, experts in their field and blindingly aware of…

The Last Thing He Told Me

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wow. This book passed the lump-in-the-throat test. With flying colours. Reading the last few pages, my emotional reaction was sudden and visceral and my head unmistakably fuzzy as I closed the book. Who do we really know for sure? How far are we willing to go to protect the…

The Graceful Ghost

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This book is an absolute delight! Or should I say - Phantastic! Meet Gracie and Rodney - two ghostly spirits (who also happen to be children of about twelve years old). This spectral duo have haunted the Amberwood Ballet School for Girls for approximately two centuries, where they (mostly)…

Nighthawks

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Stephen Connor is a cop, a man who feels himself to be often misunderstood, and yet does his best to do the right thing, as he is, at the end of the day, including mistakes and all the messiness around them, “an honorable man, in a difficult job”. In…

Finding Her Spirit

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ What a gorgeous book. Quiet and unassuming, this book takes you into the mind of Maren Markey, as she re-lives her junior-high and high school years through an old journal she finds and reads as she is preparing to move away from home to college. Equally suitable for a…

Wolfe Trap

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ This book is great fun, and the perfect introduction to what I’m sure will be one terrific crime series. Clay Wolfe (oh, what an awesome name!) Is a former Boston homicide detective, who has now moved back to his home town, the idyllic Port Essex, situated on a coastal…
