My #currentread - I’m excited to say - is a crime thriller - The Jigsaw Man by Nadine Matheson. It’s one of the reads from my #wwwwednesday post on my #bookblog today.
Do you prefer short stories/novellas or novels?
Looking ahead at my March TBR - it looks like it’s going to be a good reading month. Quite a few mysteries, a few fantasies, a few romcoms, and one contemporary novel. I think I’m going to have many 5 star reads.
