I read eight books in October. Unfortunately there were also two DNFs, something that’s rare for me. A little belatedly, here are my three favourites.
Check out all the books I’ve read so far in 2025 here. If we’re not already friends on Goodreads, send me a friend request or follow my reviews.
Dominion of Dust by Matthew Harffy (Head of Zeus) – Monk turned warrior Hunlaf and his comrades embark on an action-packed Indiana Jones-style quest to obtain a sacred relic
Our London Lives by Christine Dwyer Hickey (Atlantic) – Over the course of four decades, the lives of two Irish immigrants, Millie and Pip, intersect in fleeting moments against the background of a changing London
Transcription by Kate Atkinson (Doubleday) – A thoroughly entertaining novel, set in 1940s and 1950s London, in which seemingly everyone has something to hide
What were the best books you read last month? Have you read any of my picks?

I’m glad Transcription made your cut, Cathy.
