I picked up _The Lie of the Land_ by Amanda Craig mostly because it had a puff from Alison Lurie on the back. I found it a frustratingly inconsistent look at modern Britain through the eyes of a divorcing couple who leave London for Devon. Written in 2017 it's just old enough to seem that bit wrong but not old enough to get nostalgic about. Mostly it's really well written with great characters but the plot is all over the place. But I'd happily read more by the author all the same.

And I'm running out of space on my #SummerReadingChallenge #journal pages - plus it's definitely feeling like autumn is arriving here - and will make my next book the last one to round out the summer I think.
