Coffin Road
by Peter May
save the bees (7/10/2019)
This is my first Peter May book and I thoroughly enjoyed it. I have to wonder if people would really go to these lengths to save bees in the real world. I enjoyed the characters and the descriptions of the Hebrides Islands. I will definitely read more in the series.
Baker Towers
by Jennifer Haigh
bittersweet (6/11/2019)
I basically enjoyed this book but I thought the ending somewhat sad. The characters are well defined but none of them seem very happy as they go through their lives. I might read another book by this author.
Death In Holy Orders
by P.D. James
Hard to read (3/29/2019)
For some reason I had a hard time getting into this book.
