#Read2025 #SeriesLove2025

Finished for October‘s #FictionalTraveler #Trees prompt, I quite liked this first book of the Crown Colony series set in 1930‘s Singapore. Su Lin, a young Chinese-Singaporean woman whose childhood bout with polio has made her walk with a limp & be considered “unlucky.”. Her uncle is trying to marry her off while her dreams are bigger. I like Sun Lin & her perspective on race & class & colonialism in Singapore. The ⬇️

DebinHawaii … mystery (solving the murder of a young female servant in the Acting Governor‘s house) had twists & while I had it figured out before the end, still had me guessing. I‘m going to read the second book (tagged below) for our #FictionalTraveler November prompt #Asia (edited) 1w

A brief skip through the life British oak trees, looking at the mini eco systems each tree provides. There are some interesting facts, but, although the book is aimed at all age groups, Acton‘s writing seems aimed at more at the much younger end of the scale.

The Children of Red Peak | Craig DiLouie

Pickpick

Five survivors of a cult (all other members mysteriously) are trying to live their lives as if all of that didn‘t happen. When one of them commits suicide however, they know they have to face their past. Should they return to Red Peak for answers?
A pageturner! Thanks for the recommendation @Reggie

Reggie I like the fall leaves in the background. I‘m glad you liked it. I thought he wrote music experiences pretty well like when that guy was having those cathartic moments during his concerts. 2w
