AKA Showcase Sunday
So a couple of weeks ago I got a giant box of Penguin Crime, which was a bit exciting to unpack but in reality I am hardly reading crime fiction these days. If anyone particularly wants any of them (and are in the UK) let me know, and I’ll try and pass them on. Otherwise they’ll be going in my free books to read on the beach box I put out when the weather’s good.
I also replaced my Kindle recently so have made more of an attempt to request on NetGalley rather than paper…at least until I clear that shelf of pesky Penguins!
Guns of the Dawn by Adrian Tchaikovsky (Tor)
The Ship by Antonia Honeywell (Orion)
The Day We Disappeared by Lucy Robinson (Penguin)
Simon vs the Homo Sapiens Agenda by Becky Albertalli (Penguin)

Just let me dust off this blog thing, I have a review for you! One of my anticipated reads released during lockdown was the follow-up to An Absolutely Remarkable Thing. If you read that, of course will will be dying to know what happened to…
I recently picked up Tchaikovsky's Shadow of the Apt series, Guns of the Dawn looks really good. Happy reading. I hope you enjoy all your new books.
Too bad you probably won't read them, but the Penguin Crime books do look very pretty. Have a great week!
I got three of them; ,they look gorgeous don't they??
That IS a lot of crime fiction, Ellie! )) Good luck with it!
Awesome haul! The crime fiction does have wonderful and bright spines. The Ship sounds like a pretty good book; I may have to look into reading that one when it is released. I hope you enjoy your books and have a great week! 🙂
