I reviewed nine books in April, which comes as a surprise as it didn't feel like a typical month of reading. That's especially the case given I also read a couple of non-fiction books that I've not yet got round to reviewing. It felt like a five book month! The standout read was Rubbernecker by Belinda Bauer.

So many people have been so impressed with Rubbernecker, I am going to have to try it, even though it doesn't seem to be the type of mystery I would like. A great list of books you have read recently.
Hi Rob,
The amount of books you devour is impressive to me, as I'm a slow, analytical reader. It's always useful to read your detailed reviews.
Keep up the good 'work'.
Regards,
Col
Have to agree on Rubbernecker, Rob. Brilliant recommendation. The Patrick Fort character was a triumph.
