Atmospheric seaside mystery.

The Survivors by Jane Harper

February 22, 2021 by narfna Leave a Comment

I received a free ARC of The Survivors from Macmillan in exchange for an honest review. Getting this review in just under the wire! US pub date is tomorrow, 2/2/21*. And y’all should check this out! If mysteries and crime books are your thing. This is my second Jane Harper book. Previously, I’ve read The Dry and also have her sequel to that book and her other standalone, The Lost Man on my TBR. Just judging by the two books of hers I’ve read now, […]

Moved too slow for me

The Dry by Jane Harper

January 19, 2021 by lowercasesee Leave a Comment

I tend to be a speed reader to a fault – I know I miss stuff – but there are some audiobooks that really drive home why I am the way I am. Even at 1.25x speed, this one dragged. I did the last third or so at 1.5x which veered into chipmunk territory but it was necessary just to drag me to the finish line. It did not help matters that I google-spoiled the mystery for myself. Whoops? The book is set in drought-ridden, small-town Australia […]

Submerged secrets

The Survivors by Jane Harper

November 10, 2020 by Merryn Leave a Comment

  The sea at Evelyn Bay washes over the Survivors, the rising and falling tide measured against the bronze bodies commemorating those who survived the long ago wreck of the Mary Minerva.  They were designed to be permanently visible from the cliff and sea, and tall enough to never be fully submerged.  But Kieran is haunted by the day twelve years ago when the Survivors were gone, the day two men drowned and a young girl disappeared.  He’s not the only one. Kieran has returned to […]

Twisty Turny, More Please! (Bingo – Orange)

The Lost Man by Jane Harper

September 19, 2020 by ardaigle Leave a Comment

Ah Reading. Love it, can’t seem to focus on it. Pandemic, amiright? Something about staring at the same walls all day, and the same computer, and then needing to stare at this computer more to do reviews just doesn’t jive. I’m getting caught up with 3 books that I read…in the past few months. 9 books behind on my Cannonball. What I’m saying is, it’s a bit dire. But what I’m ALSO saying, is here I am, trying anyway. Hip hooray.* *I started this draft […]

“The rumors were fed well and grew fat and solid. They sprouted legs and heads, and they never died.”

The Dry (Aaron Falk, #1) by Jane Harper

July 30, 2020 by narfna Leave a Comment

I really liked this. Just a very solid murder mystery with good character work, and great atmosphere. Set in a small farming town in rural Australia, The Dry follows two murder cases, one from twenty years back when Aaron lived in the town with his father, and in present day as Aaron has come back to town for the first time to attend the funeral of his former best friend, Luke Hadler, who in addition to killing himself, also murdered his wife and small son, […]
