Fun read. Enjoyed being introduced to Auntie Poldi and her family.

Starting the weekend off with a little reading.

It was great, ok? It‘s Ali Hazelwood, and very little of hers hasn‘t been fantastic for me. #DannyBoy is, as always, my reading companion, and particularly velcro-ey since we got home from our trip a few days ago.

That thing you taught us!
What thing?
Misdirection.
I taught you that?
Yeah! You, or Siegfried, or Roy…

This whole thing, about Maya looking so much like her older brother reminds me of my brother‘s wedding. He‘s 8 years older, and everyone thinks I resemble my sister (5 years older) until they meet him. One of the bridesmaids, friend of his, was so excited to meet me and we had this 👆🏼 kind of exchange. It went kind of like “You look so much like John! But…you‘re pretty!” And then to save it, “It just means John would make a really pretty woman!”

Have been meaning to start on this series for a while. The first book on sale at a local bookshop was the push. A book with a very strong sense of place. Looking forward to continuing.
