Wherever the Wind Takes Us by Kelly Harms

Posted

It may be true that "Sailing is going nowhere, slowly, and at great expense", but this book is definitely going places, and at great speed!

Becca Larkin is in the final stages of her divorce from her husband of more than 20 years. After Becca is refusing to contest the prenup, the judge awards her a sailing yacht named after her. Sailing has never really been her thing; her ex husband is however very fond of the yacht... 

With the help of the good looking, Irish sailing instructor Grant Murphy, she quickly manages to find a buyer, but the yacht has to be delivered seventeen hundred miles away. Becca decides to do the trip herself, together with her daughter Liv; a great bonding opportunity for them both. 

After a while it becomes clear that even if Liv has formal sailing experience, they are way behind schedule and they need to find help.

Kelly Harms has written a fantastic story about mother and daughter relationship, second chances and bravery; to keep on going even when it seems impossible to succeed. She deals with the ex husband in a great way too, not too much negativity, but still enough for us to root for Becca.  

Thank You to NetGalley and Lake Union Publishing for allowing me to read this impossible to put down  eARC. This book will be release in October 2022, but can be pre-ordered now.

Den som dödade helvetets änglar by Jan Guillou

Posted
"Den som dödade helvetets änglar by Jan Guillou" - freely translated as " The one who killed the angels in hell". A bit late to reading this, but what a treat!!!  His language is beautiful, the connections to true events and living people are spot on, and the criticism of governments thought-provoking and necessary in a democratic-ish society.  Written in a completely different style to his other Hamilton and Ponti books i loved this one! I’ve already got the next one downloaded and will hopefully be in for another treat.  This book is so far only available in Swedish - unfortunately similar to most of Guillou's fabulous books!
