Suspect is the second Michael Robotham book I’ve read (or, in this case, listened to) – the first one was an advance copy of The Wreckage, where the character of Joseph O’Loughlin played a minor part.

However, for some annoying reason, the “Socialization” non-issue keeps coming up – most often by two groups: 1) … Continue reading
This post is actually a couple weeks old; I wrote it on Tumbler and then on the Fluent In 3 Months website forum: I resorted to English far too often yesterday with the kids and also with hubby. It’s so frustrating when I can’t think of the word for something … Continue reading
