It’s the second Wednesday in November, so I’m back with another round of Kindle offers, and as we’re coming up to Christmas it’s a real bumper month – with relatively recent releases as well as Christmas themed reading. So lets get down to it…
Lets start with recent BotW The Darkest Sin by D V Bishop from his Cesare Aldo series. Also in historical mystery, the fourth in C J Sansom’s Shardlake series, Revelation is 99p – this is the next one I need to read in the series so I bought it, because it’s a total bargain for 600+ pages and it’s easier to read on Kindle when they’re that big! Just a mystery, not a historical mystery is C L Miller‘s The Antique Hunter’s Guide to Murder, as is the second Canon Clement, A Death in the Parish. More expensive, at £2.89 is last year’s Josephine Tey Mystery by Nicola Upson – the Daphne Du Maurier-y Shot with Crimson.
One of my favourites from last year, Jenny Jackson‘s Pineapple Street is 99p if you want some Rich People Problems. Somewhat older and rich people-adjacent is Prep by Curtis Sittenfeld as is Where’d You Go Bernadette by Maria. One of this year’s new releases Jasper Fforde’s Red Side Story is 99p.
On the Christmas books front, one of my current in progress books A Jingle Bell Mingle is 99p and one of the Christmas new releases I mentioned, Nita Prose’s The Mistletoe Mystery is 99p. One of my previous Christmas favourites is on offer too – Christina Lauren‘s In a Holidaze, also Susan Mallery‘s The Christmas Wedding Guest, one of my recent purchases The Most Wonderful Crime of the Year
The 99p Georgette Heyer is A Civil Contract, which is possibly my least favourite of her Regency novels, but your mileage may vary. The Terry Pratchett is Thud at £1.99 which is one of the Watch stories – but is particularly Sam Vimes focused. On the classic front Carry on, Jeeves is 99p and Hercule Poirot’s Christmas is 99p and in KU as well if you’re in that.
On the non-fiction front, there’s another recent BotW The Formula and also Laurence Leamer‘s Capote’s Women. And finally in things I haven’t read – there’s Rachel Lacey’s Stars Collide – and age gap romance with two pop stars at different points in their careers find they have more in common than music after they perform together 99p – also in KU – andCasey McQuiston, of Red, White and Royal Blue fame’s latest novel The Pairing is 99p
That your lot – Happy Reading and try not to spend too much…
