A Readers Musings and Reviews
It’s WWW Wednesday!
WWWWednesdays meme, formerly hosted by MizB at A Daily Rhythm, has been revived and is now hosted by Taking on a World of Words.
What are you currently reading?
I’m just about to dive into Skin Deep.
Skin Deep by Antonia Lassa (translated by Dr Jacky Collins) published by Corylus Books – I’ll be posting on 1st May.
When police arrest eccentric loner Émile Gassiat for the murder of a wealthy woman in a shabby seaside apartment in Biarritz, Inspector Canonne is certain he has put the killer behind bars. Now he just needs to prove it.
But he hasn’t reckoned with the young man’s friends, who bring in lawyer-turned-investigator Larten to head for the desolate out-of-season south-west of France to dig deep into what really happened.
Larten’s hunt for the truth takes him back to the bustle of Paris as he seeks to demonstrate that the man in prison is innocent, despite all the evidence – and to uncover the true killer behind a series of bizarre murders.
Skin Deep is Antonia Lassa’s first novel to appear in English.
What did you recently finish reading?
THE ACAPULCO by Simone Buchholz (translated by Rachel Ward) from Random Things Tours and publishers Orenda Books – my post was today (19 April).
I really enjoy this series and this, actually the first in the, is a great read. The full post is linked below.
What do you think you’ll read next?
Thirty Days of Darkness by Jenny Lund Masden (translated by Megan Turney) published by Orenda Books – posting on 11th May.
#INDIEAPRIL
April is indie month which, for me, mainly takes the form of supporting indie/small publishers and their authors so I’m thrilled to be reading and sharing my thoughts on books coming out of these amazing publishers – Renard Press, Orenda Books and Corylus Books. Four books through April/May all for blog tours. If I can I’ll squeeze in more but I don’t want to overcommit myself.
