Island of the Mad by Laurie R. King
Rate this book
Clear rating
Another good one. This time Mary and Sherlock (disguised as Sheldon Russell) are walking around Venice, on the lookout for the missing aunt of Mary's friend. A good deal of the middle of the book is given over to this fun stuff. I loved it because it ...more

Castle Shade by Laurie R. King
Rate this book
Clear rating
King’s bow to the vampire obsession of a few years back, not that either Mary or Sherlock give any credence to the bloodlust. But the setting is wonderful: Castle Bran, which became known as Dracula’s Castle in Romania; makes me want to visit that bi ...more

The Road by Cormac McCarthy
Rate this book
Clear rating
Thought I should read this. Afterall he was granted a Pulitzer for it. However. . . In a word: Bleak! An almost unbearable post-apocalyptic Becket-like vision, particularly the first half, if you like that sort of dystopian nightmare. But does make o ...more

The Loneliness of Sonia and Sunny by Kiran Desai
Rate this book
Clear rating
Interesting, and certainly some great set pieces, but also a little too long. Or perhaps the author just wants her readers to sink into Sonia's nightmare of panicky madness. I wondered whether or not this really was going to be a romance of sorts; ho ...more

The Sicilian Method by Andrea Camilleri
Rate this book
Clear rating
Published after Camilleri's death in 2019, at the ripe age of 94. My hero! He left two additional MS in his vault to end the series. I shall miss Mr Salvo Montalbano. I should probably take a few months off and re-read all 29 books in order, then tak ...more

A Place of Greater Safety by Hilary Mantel
Rate this book
Clear rating
Nearly 800+ pages long with some quite memorable scenes: like Camille Desmoulins using a bowl of fruit at a dinner party to explain the movement of money through the very corrupt pre-revolutionary French government. The novel concerns the lives of th ...more

Riviera Gold by Laurie R. King
Rate this book

Just what I needed when I needed a break from the intensity of reading Hillary Mantel's Place of Greater Safety. Mostly Mary Russell on her own while Sherlock is off doing Sherlocky detections. Great descriptions of the South of France from Cap d'Ant ...more

Duke of Egypt by Margriet de Moor
Rate this book

I enjoyed this book, which I picked up to learn more about Gypsies in Europe, a topic we rarely hear about. Who were they? What were they like? How did they behave? Why were people so frightened of them? This novel IS strange but if you are intereste ...more
