My November 2024 Reading
My favorites this month were The Law of Innocence about Harry Bosch’s half-brother, Mickey Haller, accused of murder and forced to defend himself from prison, and Mrs. Hart’s Marriage Bureau, a historical novel set between the wars in Britain. I also enjoyed another book about Orphan X and two books by Joan Aiken for Witch Week 2024 – Night Fall is just as memorable as the first time I read it.

The It Girl by Ruth Ware
It’s been ten years but Hannah Jones has not recovered from the tragedy that ended her first year at Oxford – when her beautiful, charismatic roommate, April Clarke-Cliveden, was murdered.

My June 2024 Reading
June found me starting an absorbing new-to-me series by Susan Hill about Simon Serrallier, a police detective in a Cathedral town in southern England where there is an unexpected amount crime. I am already on book five! Other winners this month were two new historical novels, the delightful The Hazelbourne Ladies Motorcycle and Flying Club by Helen Simonson, which reminded me of Flambards, and the more serious Becoming Madam Secretary by Stephanie Dray, about Roosevelt’s female Secretary of Labor.

My May 2022 Reads
A busy month of reading - I expect June will include more visits to libraries and bookstores and less reading, but those are equally delightful pastimes!
Mystery/SuspenseShe Shall Have Murder by Delano Ames (1948) – Everyone tells Jane Hamish she should write a book about the goings-on at her London law firm but when a client is murdered, she finally starts writing and her boyfriend enthusiastically takes on the investigation. This is the first of a 12-book series; enjoyable but I am not sure I will pursue it because mostly out of print. My review.
