The book that the show is based on. While a little different then the show, still a good read with now familiar characters

A story about a talking magpie in New Zealand is original and poignant. In addition to its humorous side, it deals with the difficult subject of domestic abuse. It keeps you on the edge of your seat waiting to see what will happen.

Deeply captivating while exploring complex situations. Felt connected to the characters

Vicki Delany writes several series of mystery books. This one is a Sherlock Holmes Bookstore mystery where the heroine is the bookstore owner in a small town on Cape Cod. She has a romantic relationship with the local policeman and gets involved in local murders. In this book she is in charge with her business partner at the local bakery to provide the catering at a Sherlock Holmes week-end party where someone is mysteriously murdered by poison dart. I enjoyed the Sherlock Holmes lore and will read more of this series.

This was a different take on time travel that I really enjoyed. The author in the acknowledgments mentioned that a vivid dream she had about her past led her to write this one. The premise is they travel to the past for a short time but it doesn’t change the future in any way. It’s a simple reflection back. However, those “jumpers” end up being changed forever by seeing the past with new eyes. Highly recommend.

Very depressing and predictable

Not my favorite. I wish she would have added more new characters instead of relying on old ones.

I found this book slow and not as interesting as I thought it would be. Disappointed in the ending.

The was an interesting take on the lives of 3 young boys across 3 very different generations.

It’s lovely to have a realistic professional experience in a romance.
