Thanks Ellie, great to have a UK visitor. Yep I noticed the new Peter Heller right at the last minute of putting the List together. I have read his other novels & think it will be perfect for an end of summer read. Perhaps his Dog Stars is still my favorite of his novels. I need to start on my List ASAP. I plan to check out your summer list. Have a great week.

Thanks Mareli. How cold does it get in S.A. during the winter? We have just had our snow outside of town melt here … after a long winter. So we are so ready for summer! We deserve it. ha. Have a great week.

Hope you had a good week so far!

Ha. So glad you stopped by. You influenced this List after last week’s chat. I probably added Malibu Rising because of you talking about it. And now I’ll add my name to the Library wait list for Abram’s thriller too. Thx for that. We need our summer kinds of books! Keep me posted on life & your reads. So glad you liked Northern Spy — that’s excellent news. Have a fun spring & summer!

Hi Lesley, they are making an Announcement later today to ease some of the Covid restrictions here. Oh thank goodness. I just have to see what it’ll be. So burnt out by it here.
When I was making this list: at the last moment I saw the Peter Heller book coming out in August. So I threw it on. I have read 3 of his others. You know it just reminds me of a summer suspense read — even though it’ll likely be just like the others. Ha. We keep going back. Have fun with your list.

Thanks JoAnn: I better get cracking on these books. I need to finish others I’m reading at the moment, ugh behind before I begin. I’d love to see your list if you make one! We always seem to like many of the same titles. Have a great week.

Hey Catherine, oh my gosh the Costco experience, crazy! Not sure I could handle that right now. We are still in mask-land here.
I’m glad we have some reading overlap. I always enjoy reading your takes. You’ll probably get to many of these before me. I know you’ve already read Klara.
The PW gig is relatively new. I’ve done 6 reviews so far. But they have to remain anonymously reviewed, crazy eh? I will keep doing it for awhile. I still need to check out the PW event. Oprah spoke!

Sure hope you guys get out from under your lockdown restrictions pretty soon!
