It's Friday so #currentlyreading time:
including the last fortnight's updates:
Still juggling, still not getting enough books read. Not the worst problem, I've got, but apologies, as always to the authors and publishers wondering why I'm always so far behind! #JustFinished I think I'm reading too many books at once - so nothing in the just finished pile in the last week but quite a few in the currently reading which are nearly there.

The days are definitely shortening now which means the Spring Classics bike racing is in full swing, which means no sleep and a freaked out dog from all the ooing and jumping every time a rider gets into some risky trouble. #JustFinished Lucky Thing by Tom Baragwanath (2026 Ngaio's)
The latest currently reading list (check out Lucky Thing by Tom Baragwanath - 2nd in a good NZ based series):
and an update on the last fortnight's activity:
This update is bought to you in the aftermath of an Easter break where not enough reading got done. To be honest, not a lot of anything much got done, I started wading through a recently deceased relative's boxes of photos and disappeared down some very nostalgic byways.
Some catching up - March Newsletter went out yesterday and you can read it here (new releases / upcoming ones - lots of book mentions!)
Also the currently reading / fortnightly update on the site:
February / March update in case anybody else does the "Easter is for planning what to read next (as well as catching up on the things you still haven't read)" thing. There's some tantalising new releases around at the moment, hopefully something for every sort of reader. Another long list of releases so a two part newsletter again. Click here for the Other Places listing.
Today's #review is of Black Velvet and Vengeance by Deborah Challinor
https://www.austcrimefiction.org/review/black-velvet-and-vengeance-deborah-challinor
The third (and it seems possibly the final) novel in the story of Tatiana Crowe, a female undertaker in 1870s Sydney, sees the return of a character from an earlier novel who has had quite the change in personality (interestingly - explained in the author's notes at the end of the novel).
It's Friday so time for a #currentlyreading post:
and, because again a lot of upcoming releases - the last fortnight:
Friday's #currentlyreading and the Last Fortnight on AustCrime all combined into one post because there's (again) a lot of new / upcoming releases being listed:

Last Friday's #CurrentlyReading didn't get posted because I was busy meandering with dogs but it's there now. And it's a bit long.

Turns out a week off is not enough time to catch up ...
Took a break over the first week in March so I'll backdate this post but it's not going live until Tuesday the 10th. So the reader need not think they are losing their minds - it's me. #JustFinished Old Games by Fiona Hardy Dark Desert Road by Tim Ayliffe (where does the time go)
