Just fixing an incomprehensible sentence in this review. Other than that, check out our favourite books for this year on our front page.

I adore The Moonstone. It was, quite likely, the only book that my father introduced me to (book recommendations were usually my mother's domain). It really captivated my imagination when I was a kid and I felt that excitement again when rereading as an adult. To me, it's the romance of Austen, the exotic mystery of Holmes and the sinister epistolary style of Dracula rolled into one. With good results!

It was a fun read. The solution and it’s method, which I kept out of my review, was bizarre, but I liked the way the book linked with England’s role as a colonial power. It’s fascinating to read as an early crime novel which does not wholly conform to later crime writing conventions.

Love the tutu! & happy new year to you all!
Also, found this comment on the Guardian and thought this is the place for it: "Say "zozz" instead of 2022, for the whole year"
