Marianne (cloggiedownunder) | 9976 comments The 8th book in Robert Bryndza's Erika Foster series, Lethal Vengeance is a gripping police procedural with a cliff-hanger ending. 4.5★s

Emily Wilde's Compendium of Lost Tales (Emily Wilde, #3) by Heather Fawcett
I expected far more from this final installment of the Emily Wilde trilogy. It was good, but not in the league of the earlier two books.

Carolyn | 9840 comments Beautiful Ugly by Alice Feeney Beautiful Ugly by Alice Feeney is a wickedly slow burn of a suspense where a self centred man is given a chance to redeem himself.

The Language of Love and Other Stories by Nancy Christie
The cover might be a bit drab, but the stories in the "love" collection hold much magic. A great option for short story readers.

1. The Last House in the Row by Lesley Parr
