Books Incoming: Early May edition

This month’s Books Incoming comes slightly earlier than mid-month, but that’s because the arrival pile was getting a bit teetering and I wanted to sort it out. And some of these have already been read so they can go straight from the pile to the proper shelves, without adding to the pending pile(s).

Lets start with the ones I’ve already read, so that’s Death at the Playhouses which is the sequel to Death at the Dress Rehearsal, then there is A Case of Mice and Murder and The Witching Hour aka the most recent book in the Dandy Gilver series. Then we have a couple more in series that I read: the latest in Ann Granger’s Campbell and Carter series which came out in paperback this week and which I had preordered, likewise the eighth Vinyl Detective, then there are two Follet Valley books, one of Elly Griffiths’ Brighton series, another of the Edmund Crispins as I try and tick that series off, another in the Writers Apprentice series, and the next book in a historical mystery series that I had somewhat forgotten about.

And on the non-series front, there’s Beyond Belief which is non fiction about the Pentecostal church and which I bought after seeing the author pop up as a talking head on a documentary the other week and my two purchases from Market Harborough the other week – A Conflict of Interest which was the purchase in Quinns and the Rosemary Shrager which was the Oxfam bookshop one. That’s the lot, and it’s still too many – the pile next to the tbr shelf is teetering, so I really need to do something about it. And yet I keep getting distracted by re-reads and the NetGalley list. What can I say – I’m a law unto myself!

Have a great weekend everyone.
