This is the entertaining and compelling start of a new cozy series. It’s set in Australia, one of the few set in this continent, and I thoroughly enjoyed as the mystery is solid and kept me guessing.
Ruth and Doris are a well matched copy of detective as they are able to collaborate and share their skills.
The setting is lovely and there’s plenty of mouth-watering descriptions of food. I read this book at the beginning of a very strict diet and I can tell you I suffered.
This is the start of a new series and there will be soon another instalment as this story was very enjoyable and a good introduction to characters and setting.

Bookstores are not just stores, they're places where you discovered new worlds, learned something new, and they're forever part of your soul.
This is the story of a bookstore, of people who love it, and how they fought to save it because it was part of their life and soul.
It's lovely book with a cast of great characters and an interesting plot. It made me smile and root for the shop.
The beginning is quite slow and it takes someting before things get going but if you are patient you are going to read a lovely and entertaining story.
It's the first book I read by this author and won't surely be the last.

The blurb and the gorgeous cover made me request this ARC, the brilliant plot kept me hooked.
I think that women are bringing back South American literature and Brenda Lozano did an excellent job in delivering this fascinating story that mixes tradition, magic realism, politics, and a pinch of paranormal.
It’s a story of different women: a curandera, a Muxe, a journalist and their voices tells their story letting us know how they face the pros and cons of their position in a society that can love or despise them.
Feliciana was my favorite character and I learned something new about an ancient tradition. Ms Lozano did an excellent job in developing these women and giving them a distinct voice.
It was a fascinating and riveting read, strongly recommended.

I fell in love with the cover and think there's a lot of potential in this series. Unfortunately I was a big fan of the characters and found the dialogues a bit unrealistics
Not my cup of tea

I discovered this series via Netgalley and love the Lucas Page, his wife and family, how math and science are used to discover the culprit.
This is another fast paced and adrenaline fuelled book and I throughly enjoyed. Well plotted and well written.
Highly recommended.

Ian McEwan can surely write and this complex book is a clear example of what he can do. It's the story of a man but it's a the story of an age.
it's a well written book that kept me hooked and I found it fascinating and thought provoking.
I wouldn't define it entertaining but it's surely intriguing even if it's very slow at times.

I found this book intriguing and fascinating: a mix of mystery and techno thriller with elements of mythology.
A story full of twists, secrets, different timelines that surprised me and kept me guessing.
Ella, the woman in charge of the investigation, is a complex character and she grew on me. I like the claustrophobic atmosphere of the island and loved the storytelling.
It's was an entertaining and gripping read.
Highly recommended.

I think that Tom Harper mysteries are amongst the best historical mysteries. I love this series and I'm always glad to catch up with the characters and travel back in time to Leeds.
The historical background is well researched and vivid, the characters are interesting and I like the developments and how they are aging.
The mystery is solid and gripping as usual and kept me guessing.
Can't wait to read the next one.
Highly recommended.
