A sorceress comes to call

By T Kingfisher

5 stars

Great fantasy read. Magic and romance woven through the story plus some lovely comedic characters.
The Leonard Girls

By Deborah Challinor

4 stars

The story of Jo & Rowy, sisters with a backdrop of the Vietnam war. A well written fictional story hung on facts of the time. Number 4 in a series but is a really good stand alone read.
Better the blood

By michael bennett

4 stars

Not a huge fan of detective stories but this has done the rounds of staff so thought I would give it a go. Loved that it was set in Auckland but all things leading back to the detective was a little too much for me.
Bearmouth

By Liz Hyder

5 stars

Bearmouth is a mine where men & boys work under a reign of tyranny. This is the story of Thomas' crew which includes young 'uns Newt & Devlin. Intermediate aged story with twists and turns making it a great read.

5 stars

One of the twelve go rogue unleashing the past and steal Libby as a sacrifice to this end. Kit & Story (named after an astronaut) time travel to put the past back where it belongs. The friendship which strikes up between Kit & Story is nicely written.

three dogs, two murders, and a cat

By rodney strong

4 stars

Mystery story set in Wellington. about a pet detective who gets swept up in something much bigger than an injured pet. An easy read and comedic in parts.
into thin air

By Jon Krakauer

4 stars

One person's account of the disastrous spring season in 1996 of the climbing of Mt Everest. It tries to be objective but very hard as the story of those that died is not able to be told.
