  • The Mess of Our Lives

    By Mary-Anne Scott
    4 stars

    A modern twist on the coming of age trope. A strong teen male protagonist who faces challenges, makes errors, considers life choices, without being unnecessarily dramatic or with an overly full plot.

  • The Windsor Legacy: A Royal Dynasty of Secrets, Scandal, and Survival

    By Robert Jobson
    5 stars

    An interesting unpacking of the house of Windsor from Edward VII to today.

  • The Heir Apparent

    By Rebecca Armitage
    2 stars

  • Bear

    By Kiri Lightfoot
    4 stars

    At first I wasn't sure whether the stream of consciousness would detract from the story. Once I settled in, the insightfulness of the author in creating the voice of the narrator, and his lists of worries to Google :), kept the interest and engagement going.

  • Anything Could Happen

    By Grant Robertson
    4 stars

    An enjoyable read: a memoir with illuminating back story of the author's entry into politics and return to his home town.
