august reading


Three books!

She Walks These Hills by Sharyn McCrumb - More in the Ballad series, really enjoyed this one.
Last Rituals and My Soul to Take by Yrsa Sigurdardottir - I actually picked the second of these up at the library from the 'grab and go' shelf but had to put it back because I saw that it was the second book with the same character and well, I had to read the first one first. So I did, and then the second one immediately afterwards. Great Icelandic murder/detective fiction. I'll be on the lookout for her next novel.

Thanks for this - always on the lookout for a good recommendation. I'm currently reading one I can also recommend called "Brother of the more famous Jack" by Barbara Trapido. She was here for the Melbourne Writers' Festival and I heard her interviewed on 774 and drove straight to the library to get the book. They're not a series of books but apparently characters sometimes pop up in other books so I also decided to read them in order.
