Simple Shift for a "Quiet Colour" Day

 And Wow on Wednesday

Gail Hanlon from Is This Mutton in a simple cotton cream shift dress with colourful scarf and gold sequin bag

Dear friends. A simple cream shift dress today, a great choice for those days when you don't want to be particularly colourful.  I wanted the pretty vetch in a nearby park to take centre stage, 

The dress was an amazing charity shop bargain.  It cost just £5 in a shop in Wimbledon last year.  I haven't worn it much but pledged to give it a twirl at Gunpowder Park, Waltham Abbey.

Dead Fall by A.K. Turner

 

Dear friends. Today I'm bringing you a new book spotlight.  Cassie Raven is the antithesis of the usual crime thriller heroine. She's a pink haired, tattooed, feisty mortuary technician.

The Wrong Woman by O J Mullen

 

Dear friends. I'm thrilled today to feature the latest book from O J Mullen.  I'm a big fan of his gritty and tightly plotted crime thrillers.  This one is in the unusual setting for this genre of an ad agency.  It's my stop on the blog tour for The Wrong Woman.

Books Read in July

 

Is This Mutton's reviews of new books for July 2024

Dear friends. Here are my reviews of books published this month. Thanks to the publishers for early review copies in return for an honest review.

In the Goodreads Reading Challenge I'm at 75 books  (target 100), 22 books ahead of schedule. My reading has slowed down a little. As a NetGalley reviewer I'm typically reading books several months before their publication, and the months November to December seem to be quiet for publishers.
