The highly anticipated 19th book in the Inspector Gamache series The Grey Wolf by Louise Penney
The quiet village of Three Pines is nigh on impossible to locate to anyone but those who live in Quebec. Yet, someone has managed to find the home of Inspector Gamache and is now bombarding him with incessant phone calls. Inspector Gamache is determined to not pick up the phone, so the calls go ignored. As his wife looks on, she notices he becomes increasingly agitated as he clearly knows who is on the phone. Finally, bending to pressure, the phone calls are answered and the quiet, idyllic afternoon is shattered as Inspector Gamache finally loses his ability to stay calm.
The phone calls are just the beginning to a plethora of strange events that plague the Inspector. A coat that has mysteriously taken a walk, an alarm that should only go off for an intruder alert, an intriguing note that simply says ‘this might interest you’ and then a murder.
These are all propelling Inspector Gamache to a horrible realization. There’s something sinister at foot and it’s more than he has ever seen before.
This Will be Fun by E.B Asher
This Will be Fun is a Romantasy, or a Cozy Fantasy if you prefer.
Ten years ago Beatrice and Elowen saved Mythria, helped by Clare a former bandit and their fearless leader Galwell. Their heroics are talked about all over the land, but instead of bringing the friends closer together, it’s drawn them apart and they refuse to speak to each other.
One day, they both receive a summons to the Queen’s wedding. As you can imagine, one does not simply say “no, thanks, I’m washing my hair today” to the Queen. So, the ex friends attend the wedding not sure what to expect or how they will react upon seeing each other after years of not speaking. Each friend is harbouring feelings that they can’t control. Clare is still not over his fling with Beatrice and Beatrice is still guilty over the way the fling ended. Elowen is unprepared for the feelings she has after she sees a former boyfriend. And as if that wasn’t enough, dark forces have returned to threaten the peace of the Kingdom they all love.
Working together they must stop the forces that will rend their kingdom apart.
For fans of the Princess Bride and the People We Meet on Vacation this is a cozy read that speaks to the heart of friendship.
