"To a book lover, a bookshop is not a place in the world, but a world in itself.”

Anything with the words “book” or “bookshop” always attracts me, and so I came home with this volume. The above quote from the start of Chapter One resonated with me.

I am so glad I borrowed this book; it is a recent publication, written not long after the pandemic, and soon I found myself caring about the characters (and the bookshop!), which is always a good sign.

Throughout the book we are uncertain as to which twin survived, our opinion vacillating from one to the other.

Intertwined with the drama of the characters is the drama of the uncertain weather on the island. The twist at the end caught me by surprise.

S K Tremayne – real name Sean Thomas – has written several psychological thrillers, and I for one can’t wait to order another one from my local library.

Every year lists come out predicting what will be in, and what will be out, and food is a huge one.

Trouble is, they are not always right. Remember when vegan this, that, and the other was rammed down everyone's throats (sometimes literally), and was everywhere in food halls and grocery stores?

Take a look now. Not so much, huh? Sure, it's still there and rightfully has its place, but not like it was, and therein lies the problem; how far is going too far when running with trends?

Much like with some Indian dishes, the name comes not from the dish but from the cooking vessel. In this case, it refers to 'cooking pot' (lasanum), or if not, then possibly a flatbread (laganon).

There is also some Greek influence here (thanks Cleopatra and Mark Anthony, you sexy couple you), which is why moussaka is a thing, but it's been around for over 2,000 years.Lasagne can be a simple dish, but it can also be complicated, so let's see if we can find a happy middle ground and one that keeps the method relaxed. Facciamo cuocere ...
