Review: Nine Coaches Waiting

Nine Coaches Waiting by Mary Stewart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

wherever you were, you took your little circle of loneliness with you

Excellent gothic thriller, with all the requisite tropes. Innocent female, child at risk, huge mansion, spooky owner, and a lover who might, or might not, be involved.

This was a DNF for me. Too much cruelty perpetrated for nothing.

Review: A Pale Horse

A Pale Horse by Charles Todd
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

love this series about a man who barely managed to survive WWI and is now trying hard to get his life back together again, and solving murders along the way.

Great characters, complex plots.

I also loved the setting. I've been to Uffington, seen the Horse and Wayland's Smithy.

Review: Recursion

Recursion by Blake Crouch
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Related but not directly to [Dark Matter], a study of what is time and what is memory. Changing the world's timeline turns out to not be a good idea. Who knew?

Review: Dark Matter

Dark Matter by Blake Crouch
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I waited a month for [Recursion] but then belatedly realized I got [Dark Matter] mixed up with something else and I hadn't yet read it. So, at the last moment I was able to get it from the library and jumped in.

I enjoy Blake Crouch thrillers. Lots of science, likeable characters, and interesting sciency scenarios. Enjoyed it a lot.

Review: Not Alone

Not Alone by Craig A. Falconer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

What a fun take on First Contact. Focus is on social and political responses rather than tech and aliens. Definitely reading more of this series.
