I’m just about to start The Bleeding by Johanna Gustawsson, a multi timeline historical gothic thriller set in Paris and Quebec in 1899, 1949 and 2002.

I’m reading Wilding by Isabella Tree. It’s for my local f2f book group. The theme is an ecological read. It’s about a couple who decide to take their back to nature.

I’m also reading via Pigeonhole Make Me Clean by Tina Baker, a psychological thriller about a cleaner she takes her job seriously. So much so it it sometimes leads to murder!
