4 Books to read

All The Rage by Cara Hunter: All The Rage is the fourth novel featuring DI Adam Fawley from awardwinning crime author Cara Hunter. The team at St Aldgate’s police station in Oxford are back; this time investigating two attacks on young girls – both reminiscent of the Roadside Rapist, Gavin Parry, who was convicted in the Nineties and is now up for parole. You’ll be deceived by a red herring once or twice, but it’s the stunning ending that sets All The Rage apart in the crowded crime fiction genre.

The Hard Stuff by David Gordon: We have the return of Joe a former black ops specialist turned bouncer and fixer and a crime boss with a problem that needs immediate attention and only Joe can even start to understand how to sort it. Can Joe and his motley bunch of cohorts pull off a heist of epic proportions?

The Captain And The Glory by Dave Eggers:

This latest attempt to satirise the Trump regime follows the Admiral (Obama), the captain of the good ship Glory (the US) who goes into retirement, and on a whim the passengers replace him with a ‘known moron’ who ‘said pretty much anything that popped into his head’ (guess who). This cartoonish, entertaining read is likely to gratify the President’s opponents without doing much to unsettle his supporters.

How To Break Up With Fast Fashion by Lauren Bravo: Reading this book feels like sitting on your bed with your best friend, realising together just how bad fast fashion is for the environment, working through each stage of the grieving process as you realise it’s time to end the affair – and finally working out an excellent game plan.
