Let’s celebrate Thursday! I’m in a great mood today. Actually, I was in a great mood since noon yesterday. So, let’s talk about what we’re reading this week.

I’m reading an April release for review. Caro Ramsay is a Scottish writer, and On an Outgoing Tide is the twelfth book in her police procedural series featuring Detective Inspector Colin Anderson and Detective Sergeant Freddie Costello. The books are set in Glasgow. Ramsay was nominated for the CWA New Blood Dagger with the first in the series, Absolution, and her 2018 novel, The Suffering of Strangers, was a nominee for the McIlvanney Prize for Best Novel. The novel contains my favorite elements, a solid police procedural that incorporates the personal lives of the police detectives. However, I’d definitely suggest that readers start at the beginning of the series. I’m over halfway through the book, and I’m still trying to figure out some of the background in Anderson’s personal life.

What about you? What are you reading this week?
