I've read anything I can get my hands on written by Jane Harper lately, but was recently struggling with a book that seemed too romancey and uninteresting to me. Wow, what a disappointing departure in style, I thought. Where is the gritty tension of The Dry I thought. Realised it was by Jane E Harper, completely different person 🤦🏼♀️At least Iain Banks and Iain M Banks were the same person!
Edit: included a book title by a third unrelated person 🤦🏼♀️🤦🏼♀️ Unexpected days off leave me bumble-headed and lacking mental structure 😆
