Joël Dicker: L'énigme de la chambre 622 (French language, 2022, Rosie Wolfe)

Very meta and very Dicker

It's another murder mystery with layers upon layers, which I like. But this time, the setting is Dicker's Switzerland, and himself as a character. As always, a very engaging page-turner.

Julie Zickefoose: Saving Jemima (Hardcover, Mariner Books)

A delightful read

If you like birds, this book will delight you. This lady has decades of experience rehabilitating and releasing birds. One day, someone brings her a baby blue jay. The book combines personal narrative, scientific info about jays, and is just a delightful read. She's a bit into some woo woo stuff but it's minimal in the book. If you need a nice summer read, that's the book to pick.

As well done as the revious two

This is the 3rd novel in the Marcus Goldman trilogy. It's as well written and intriguing as the previous two. There is an English translation.
