Highlights of the year!

Clockwise, but randonly ordered:

Yellowface - Deliciously ghastly.

Clarice Bean: Don’t Look Now - Exceptionordinarily excellent and quite good too.

A Woman in the Polar Night - Enchanting. High adventure in understated prose.

PK Pinkerton: The Case of the Good-looking Corpse: Fabulous hero. Cracking pace. Immersive world-building. Sometimes shocking! Loved it.

Poison in not Polite - A charming and fiendish whodunnit.

The Notorious Scarlett & Browne - Exhilerating. Exceptional world-building and descriptive prose.

Kick the Latch - A rodeo-ride of a book.

The Extraordinary Voyage of Katy Willacott - Fantastic sea-storm scene. Loved it.

Elizabeth & Zenobia - Read the whole book with a smile. Wish I had my own Zenobia. Loved it.
