Something Like Happy looks like a great book. I loved all of your July books except perhaps for Indigo Lake…I have a hard time with books with horses on the cover.

Beautiful Poison sounds great! Looks like a good mix of history, science, and forensics.

I am seeing the Jenny Colgan book everywhere. And I can’t wait to read Lonsdale’s Everything We Left Behind. She is our RBC author for September, with Everything We Keep. I enjoyed that one and look forward to reading the sequel.

Hi Mary,
I like the sound of both of your new arrivals this week, although ‘A Beautiful Poison’ just about has the edge for me. As I started to check out the links you left, I also realised that you have quite a common theme of water going on throughout your entire list of titles!
Thanks for sharing and have a good week ahead 🙂
