The Night Circus by Erin Morgensternhttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
South Australian author Garry Disher's recent book Consolation is my favourite kind of writing. Perfect for place, plot, and people. This is rural Australia where crooks think they can get away with murder.

The Vet from Snowy River by Stella Quinnhttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
