Have you come across an author by the name of Robert Goddard?
Back to the grindstone....
Now I know why you are one of the sharpest knives in the drawer, Pen. You have your own grindstone.
All the other members of my family are more “well-read” than I am, so although I had not heard of
Robert Goddard until I read your post, when June read the post she went around to one of our bookcases and produced a copy of
Sea Change. Apparently, she had read several of RG’s novels a few years ago and liked them. So now I have another book to add to my “to-read” list.
June also pointed out the scope of my reading was quite narrow and mainly limited to “whodunits” and so she gave me a copy of
Gail Honeyman’s Eleanor Oliphant is Completely Fine to add to the list. If anybody else has read this, I would appreciate some feedback. Apparently, it has won several awards.
Some years ago, I did follow her recommendation to read
Kate Atkinson’s Jackson Brodie series and I was surprised to find I liked them despite being originally put off by the blurb.
Turn the lights down low. Here is a little light relief to finish with:
