Elle Mickel's audio rendition of the aptly-titled third book in the Detective Zoe Mayer series, The Good Dog is excellent, and we can only hope Simon Rowell has more of this cast up his literary sleeve. 4.5★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...
This children's picture book about a puzzled pirate, The Hoys by Kes Gray, has some great illustrations by Mark Chambers which I shared in my review.
My review of The Hoys
On a completely different note, in The Last Coyote by Michael Connelly, LA Detective Harry Bosch is up against it following the 1994 record-breaking earthquake that wrecked his house. Mind you, that's the least of his problems.

One More Mountain by Deborah Ellis
The fifth book of the acclaimed Breadwinner series, a set of MG books talking of a little girl in Afghanistan. an eye-opening story, but best read in series order.

I was hooked by the first book in Zoë Sharp's Blake & Byron series, and the 2nd book, The Girl in the Dark is even better. I can't wait to see what this unlikely pair get up to next. 5★shttps://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

A Lady's Guide to Marvels and Misadventure by Angela Bell
An entertaining historical romance-adventure. Faith-oriented , especially in the final section, so except if you have a problem with that, I see now reason why you shouldn't read this amazing debut. :)

Just finished a reread of a book from my 2016 NetGalley shelf. It was just as enjoyable second time around.

So far the DI Nikki Galena series has been a sure bet, and Stalker on the Fens (book #5) continues the trend.https://www.goodreads.com/review/show...

A wacky cli-fi satire set in dystopian NZ. Not for everyone, but if you like dark humour, you'll possibly enjoy this.
