    A fascinating story of two women, two centuries apart, being forced to hide their identity in order to have their voices heard.

  • Variation

    By Rebecca Yarros
    3 stars

    Simpering steamy romance - could have sorted out all their problems in the first chapter - how I endured 464 pages I'm not sure!

  • Catch a falling star

    By Eileen Merriman
    4 stars

    Great YA read re raising mental health awareness for our teenage students.

  • The night she fell

    By Eileen Merriman
    4 stars

    Renown for her YA books, The Night she Fell is a tight psychological thriller based on the premise Suicide, murder or accident. Dunedin's infamous grimy student life is front and centre and, as in all good crime novels, our loyalties to characters twist and turn as the story evolves.

  • Blood Pact

    By Fiona McIntosh
    3 stars

    Not brilliantly inspiring but an easy holiday read. I really hate how the author explains the same information over and over again as thought the reader has no brain! However, an interesting insight into blood, blood donations and transfusions.

  • The collected regrets of Clover

    By Mikki Bremmer
    5 stars

    A beautiful layered book on life and death which was uplifting and reflective. For those of us who have been intimately involved with death, the book provides solace and humour as well as hope. A wonderful read.

  • Remember me

    By Charity Norman
    4 stars

    Great read - especially if you are familiar with the Ruahine Ranges , supporting those with dementia and returning from years overseas to New Zealand.

  • The Murderer's Daughter

    By Jonathan Kellerman
    3 stars

    Psychological thriller (holiday mode). A little pedestrian - background story of the the protagonist was interesting but the 'thriller' part was certainly not up to Kellerman's Alex Delaware's series. A tad disappointed.

  • Dead on Dartmoor

    By Stephanie Austin
    3 stars

    Book 2 of series - not improving@

  • Dead in devon

    By Stephanie Austin
    3 stars

    A bit hohum but ok to pick up and put down while looking after kids when not a lot of brain power is needed.

  • There are rivers in the sky

    By Elif Shafak
    5 stars

    Simply brilliant - storytelling at its best - totally unforgettable and hard to move on to the next book.

  • The Instrumentalist

    By Harriet Constable
    5 stars

    Wonderful story based on a true story and is a fascinating tale of ambition, passion, sheer talent and the 'non-existence' of the role of woman in 18th century Venice.

  • Kill Our Sons

    By JM Dalgleish
    4 stars

    Book 3 of the Hidden Norfolk Series by JM Dalgleish. British crime thriller set in the beautiful Norfolk regions. Dark mystery thriller tinged with dry humour. Good holiday reading.

  • One Lost Soul

    By JM Dalgliesh
    4 stars

    First book in the series. Characters were engaging enough for me to read next couple in the series. Understated British crime thriller.
