If you’ve never picked up one of Susan Mallery’s book you are in for a real treat. She has a huge back catalogue and writes such relatable stories that it is really easy to feel empathy for her characters. She has a unique brand of witty, emotional storytelling. All of […]
I seem to have read a number of these multi generational novels recently. Perhaps that is the latest fashion in fiction like when you couldn’t escape a vampire book or a dystopian future for quite a while? Thats not to say that I didn’t enjoy it, because I really did. […]

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 […]
The clocks have now changed and the evenings are drawing in. We survived the Halloween weekend so now thoughts can legitimately turn to Christmas! No Christmas season would be complete without another festive Mandy Baggot contemporary romance. It is no ordinary love story though and feels like a big Father […]
Having just got a puppy myself I was quite intrigued by the idea of a romantic comedy from the dog’s point of view. You do have to wonder just how many male pugs get called Doug? Back in the mists of time when I worked in an office one of […]
I will shamelessly admit that I am a huge Mandy Baggot fan and was delighted to be invited to take part in the blog tour for her latest book Staying Out For the Summer. Mandy’s books have always been like having an amazing summer holiday vicariously, with her vivid characters […]
You’ll remember Zoë Folbigg from her Amazon number-one bestseller The Note, based on the true story of how she met her husband on her daily commute. If you read The Note you’ll know that Zoe has a real gift for writing about realistic characters with pathos and a good deal […]
Now I will never admit this to your face but I’m a bit of a closet Country Music fan. Growing up on a diet of Johnny Cash and Glen Campbell, my Dad made it a compulsory accompaniment to every childhood car journey. As I result I now secretly love the […]
If you’ve ever had nightmare neighbours you can sympathise with the residents of Lowland Way. It’s a pretty well to do street in an area of South London that has become gentrified. Waitrose shoppers aspiring to send their well heeled offspring to good schools and to have the best start […]
I started reading – and really enjoying – Zoë Folbigg’s new book The Postcard, quickly realised it was a sequel and went out and downloaded her first book. I’m not quite sure how it managed to pass me by when it came out in 2017 as it is exactly the […]

Book two in the Children’s House series sees Icelandic author Yrsa Sigurardottir at her chilling best. Not for the faint hearted, this is Scandi Noir at its finest. When a time capsule is dug up at a local school after ten years it contains a very creepy note written by […]
Modern American literature isn’t always a favourite of mine. There is such a difference in tone between a European author writing on a subject and that of their American counterpart. I’m very pleased to say that Rowley has crafted a modern American novel of significance with a pathos and circumspection […]
A small community in Bristol, Melville Heights, is the very epitome of British village life. Although it is part of a larger metropolitan area it feels like a small enclave where everyone knows everyone else. It’s a well to do neighborhood with lawyers and doctors and more recently the elite […]
UK readers may be familiar with Cathy Newman from her role as journalist and presenter on Channel Four’s nightly news programme. She has a very direct but completely amicable style that often disarms the people that she interviews. This easygoing style translates into her written prose and what could be […]
I love a good book cover and shamelessly I will admit that it is often the difference between picking up a book in the store or not. This latest book from Isabelle Broom has the most gorgeous cover art and it captured me right from the start. Alice lives with […]
