  • The Unlikey Doctor

    By Dr Timoti Te Moke
    5 stars

    Amazing how someone can reach such an achievement despite racism and poverty.

  • The Songbirds of Florence

    By Olivia Spooner
    3 stars

    175 pages were set in Cairo, yet we did not learn anything about the food, the culture, or the people - they were portrayed with "grim stares and narrow eyes of the Egyptians", in contrast to the second half of the book, with the Italians, the food, the hardship of the people and how they suffered was described in detail. Disappointing.

  • The Sweetness of Water

    By Nathan Harris
    5 stars

    Excellent debut novel.
