#ewgc Moorea Corrigan’ THISTLEMARSH sounds intriguing: an alternate WWI England where the faeries have disappeared…or have they?

#ewgc This really caught my eye: Izzy Broom’s HOUSE OF HIDDEN LETTERS. Woman wins a lottery to buy a cottage in need of repairs on a Greek island for one euro. She and the few other winners will be the first residents in the cottages since the 1940s…

#ewgc Can’t wait to get into Jo Walton & Ada Palmer’s take on modern science fiction and fantasy in TRACE ELEMENTS

#ewgc About to start Allison Brennan’s MAKE IT OUT ALIVE; I’m addicted to her Costa & Quinn series

#ewgc Excited to see Meg Shaffer has a new book coming in April THE BOOK WITCH

#ewgc Going to see how long I can stay up; logging in from lovely (but a little soggy right now) Corfu where it’s 10:30 pm. Need to hear about all the books!

Wow! Another Sarah Beth Durst, Sea of Charms, coming next July!

#ewgc Definitely on board for Claire Haywood’s THE WANDERING QUEEN, a retelling of the story of Queen Dido

#ewgc Jayne Ann Krentz’s THE SHOP ON HIDDEN LANE pairs two psychics from feuding families on a search for her missing aunt and his uncle. Satisfying romantic suspense

THE ESSENTIAL PATRICIA A MCKILLIP reminded me of just how good a writer of fantasy she was

#ewgc S J Bennett is back in the early days of Elizabeth’s reign with THE QUEEN WHO CAME IN FROM THE COLD and continues to entertain

#ewgc So lucky to get a pdf of Gail Bowen’s SOLITARY FRIEND; always anxious to see what new challenges are in store for Joanne Kilbourn, friends and family

bethmillsnr76.bsky.social @bethmillsnr76.bsky.social · Sep 4

#ewgc Val McDermid’s SILENT BONES was worth waiting for; her Karen Pirie series is so good

#ewgc Intrigued by description of Nikolas Natt och Dag’s HOPE AND DESTINY; haven’t read a lot of historical fiction set in medieval Sweden

bethmillsnr76.bsky.social @bethmillsnr76.bsky.social · Sep 4

#ewgc Laura Dave’s THE FIRST TIME I SAW HIM backs as big a punch as THE LAST THING HE TOLD ME. Does not disappoint

bethmillsnr76.bsky.social @bethmillsnr76.bsky.social · Sep 4

#ewgc If you haven’t yet met 75 year old Ethel Fiona Crestwater and her United Flying Octogenarians run out to get the first two in Mark de Castrique’s series and then read DESPERATE SPIES. I loved it!

#ewgc Count me as another reader who really enjoyed this one ❤️

bethmillsnr76.bsky.social @bethmillsnr76.bsky.social · Jul 10

Thoroughly enjoy this series: armchair traveling at its best!

bethmillsnr76.bsky.social @bethmillsnr76.bsky.social · Jul 10

#ewgc Two titles I am impatiently awaiting: Gail Bowen’s SOLITARY FRIEND and Val McDermid’s next Karen Pirie SILENT BONES. I often recommend Bowen’s Joanne Kilborn series to readers waiting for the next Louise Penny.

#ewgc Also liked Andrew Mayne’s IMPOSTOR SYNDROME: who is killing social media influencers in bizarre fashion and why?

#ewgc On a real mystery kick right now; liked Bill Kitson’s NETWORK OF EVIL; so glad I first encountered his Yorkshire set series on NetGalley

bethmillsnr76.bsky.social @bethmillsnr76.bsky.social · Jul 10

#ewgc Thoroughly enjoyed Sara Driscoll’s DEADLY TRADE; her FBI K-9 series is one I can never get enough of
