Rachel Burton is one of my favourite authors of recent years and I’m really pleased to have been invited to join to blog tour for the paperback launch of The Last Party at Silverton Hall. Like a lot of my recent reads it features the dual timeline with the two […]
What a way to start the new year off! I’ve always been rather fond of witches and back in the day devoured Anne Rice’s Mayfair Witches series (long before the current reboot on screen). This is not a tale of dark witches but the story of three strong and resourceful […]
Sometimes you just need to submit yourself to a book that you know will immerse you in the universe of the story and with a Milly Johnson book you just know that will happen. I started reading last weekend when we had a good fall of snow on the ground […]
It has been a while since I devoured a book in a single day but The Mysterious Case of the Alperton Angels went everywhere with me until I turned the final page. The recent fashion for True Crime is explored here in a very unique way. The reader opens a […]
I was really pleased to be invited to join the blog tour around the paperback release of Bella Osbourne’s new book. The Library is such an interesting book in that it presents two very different central characters who are both experiencing a similar sadness and isolation in their lives. Tom […]
Obsession is the debut novel from Amanda Robson. It is a story of two couples. Rob is a GP married to Carly. On a drunken night on a camping holiday in France he is pressed by Carly to tell her who he would be unfaithful with if he could. Such […]
A group of people settle into their seats in Coach B on the 10.35 Virgin train from Manchester to London Euston. Each of them has a different reason for traveling to London. Jeff is going to a job interview for a much wanted IT apprenticeship. Holly has just landed her […]
Many UK readers will know Shappi from her appearances on the comedy circuit and on prime time television shows like Mock the Week. She has already published her autobiography detailing her early years as an Iranian immigrant in London (A Beginner’s Guide To Acting English) and this is her first […]
Over recent years Mark Edwards has proven himself to be a master of psychological thrillers, the kind of twisty suspense tale that has you suspecting all the main characters. If you haven’t read his book The Magpies then you have really missed a treat. Sophie is just returning to work […]
With the recent launch of the fourth book in the Cainsville Series – Betrayals – it feels like the perfect time to go back and revisit Cainsville and books one through to three. Better known for her supernatural series about werewolves (that inspired the TV series Bitten) Armstrong has come […]
Rosie Tipcott has lived in the seaside town of Woolacombe her entire life. She has thought about travelling and leaving her roots but never found a good enough reason to carry it out. She’s happy enough in her little cottage with husband Phil and their two little daughters Leona and […]
This time last year I read a short novella that was a digital prequel to what sounded like a really interesting new series. It has been a long wait but finally the first proper book in the Hanover House series has been published. Her Darkest Nightmare takes up right from […]
I’ve had Lucie Whitehouse on my list of authors that interested me for quite a while now but never actually got around to picking up one of her books. I now realise that I was missing out because she is a master craftswoman when it comes to constructing the perfect […]
On paper I should hate this book. Set in a dystopian future where the Church has taken over the world in a bid to rid it of the soul sucking demons that tried to take over civilisation. It is a dark and heavily regimented society with strict rules being enforced […]
This was my first book by Liane Moriarty and there were times when I felt like giving up on this weighty tome. It requires quite a considerable injection of your time as it rocks up at a mighty 480 pages. Honestly I only persevered with it because two authors that […]
Hester leads a solitary life. Living alone with only her little dog for company she always finds herself on the side-lines looking in. She has no real friends and keeps her distance from the others in her adult learning class. Her only real friend was Melissa who lives next door, […]
There are many reasons for despising Southern Rail at the moment – cancelling my train means that it takes twice as long to get to work. This does mean that I get even more time to read though and I nearly missed my stop yesterday because I was so engrossed […]
I had a quick look at Lisa’s profile on Goodreads before I started to write this review and was amazed to see that I had read all but one of her books. Although thinking about it I don’t know why I was amazed. You know what you are getting when […]
Originally published in 2013 this book has just been republished by St Martin’s Press. It was the debut novel from Giovanna Fletcher. Giovanna has her own unique insight into the acting world having graduated from the Rose Bruford acting school. The McFly song “All About You” was written for Giovanna […]
Weighing in at a hefty 560 pages The Kept Woman is the eighth book in Slaughter’s Will Trent series. If you haven’t read any of these I wholeheartedly recommend going back to the very beginning and reading Blindsighted. This is the first of the Grant County series and where we […]
