I read seven books in March, a number I’m quite happy with considering I was still rereading a couple of the books shortlisted for the Winston Graham Historical Prize ahead of the judging panel’s meeting. The winner was announced on Thursday 12th March at Cornwall Museum & Art Gallery in Truro – Seascraper by Benjamin Wood.
You can find my three favourite March reads below with links to my full review or the book description on Goodreads.

Love Lane by Patrick Gale (Tinder Press) – Poignant and tender follow-on from the much-loved A Place Called Winter, continuing the story of Harry Cane
Sweep the Cobwebs Off the Sky by Mary O’Donnell (epoque press) – An acutely-observed exploration of family relationships
The Perfect Circle by Claudia Petrucci, translated by Anne Milano Appel (World Editions) – A cleverly plotted story whose ending reflects the book’s title in a most satisfying way
