The Great Alone

By Kristin Hannah

5 stars

I traded a sunny summer weekend to explore Alaska n the 1970s. Harrowing and unputdownable story where the landscape is as vital to the narrative as the characters. I loved The Women by Kristin Hannah when I read it earlier this year. This was as equally engaging.
At the Grand Glacier Hotel

By Laurence Fearnley

3 stars

Slow but thoughtful read, set in Franz Josef during Covid. Landscape is used to mirror the emotions and physical limitations of the protagonist’s post cancer surgical journey. The authenticity of the narrative draws from the author’s own experiences of cancer during covid, so while presented as fictional it also felt autobiographical.
Canticle Creek

By Adrian Hyland

4 stars

Australian crime drama. Gives an evocative sense of landscapes of the Northern Territory and highlands of Victoria.

Sold on a Monday

By Kristina McMorris

3 stars

While it’s a best seller I wasn’t completely gripped by it. A bit slow at times but an ok read.
