1 thought on “The Week in Books: August 3 – August 9”

  1. thats a lot of books – I’m impressed! I recently read death sets sail and was kind of bittersweet about finishing this series… but I think it was a very well done ending. I was a bit sceptical at first at how similar it sounded to Agatha Christie’s death on the Nile, but I can safely say it was NOTHING like that haha. Here was my review of it 🙂 : https://hundredsandthousandsofbooks.blog/2020/09/04/the-end-of-an-era-death-sets-sail/
