NUMBER 13! 📚Continuing the countdown of my books, from 1st to 25th, THE JACKAL‘S MISTRESS. Today it‘s my 13th, SECRETS OF EDEN (2010), a novel about what looks like a domestic abuse murder-suicide. This was my third movie and starred a terrific John Stamos.

It‘s not my habit to buy new books because I get so many from the library and Lord only knows when I‘ll actually read these, but I‘m so happy to have them. Europa Editions rarely steers me wrong and I‘ve really liked Chidgey‘s work before so I‘m looking forward to it. And of course The God of the Woods has been getting lots of love lately. 💕💕💕
