My Five Favourite February 2023 Reads

I read nine books in February, a relatively quiet month for me but I was on holiday for two weeks and didn’t get quite as much time on my sun lounger reading as I’d imagined. Below are  my five favourite. Links from each title will take you to my review (or the book description on Goodreads if I’ve not yet published my review). You can find a list of all the books I’ve read so far in 2023 here.  If we’re not already friends on Goodreads, send me a friend request or follow my reviews.

My thanks to Hodder & Stoughton, Gordon Doherty, Verve Books and Aria for providing me with review copies, including via NetGalley.

A Gift of Poison (Brontë Sisters Mystery #4) by Bella Ellis (Hodder & Stoughton) – The last book in the author’s historical mystery series in which the Brontë sisters turn amateur detective.

The Emperor’s Shield (Legionary #9) by Gordon Doherty  – All-action historical adventure set in the 4th century featuring fearless Roman soldier Pavo.

Butler to the World by Oliver Bullough (Profile Books) – Excoriating exposé of Britain’s role in facilitating global financial ‘skulduggery’.

Cut Adrift (Jen Shaw #2) by Jane Jesmond (Verve Books) – Compelling thriller set in France and Malta

The Last Party at Silverton Hall by Rachel Burton (Aria) – Dual-time mystery with a touch of romance
