Thanks to the award-winning @failingwriters.bsky.social for their great reviews 😅🙌🏻
Just finished reading 1 of our absurdly talented listener’s books - @stgenevieve.bsky.social I thoroughly enjoyed this marvellously well observed, funny, and life affirming book!
And what’s this… you little tinker. You gave us an acknowledgement!
❤️😍
Well done! Bloody brilliant!

Thanks @junegemmell.bsky.social you are sooooo discerning
Finished ‘No Oil Painting‘ last night. Fantastic characters, brilliant and unusual setting, and fabulous dialogue. It’s a witty and feel-good debut novel from @stgenevieve.bsky.social
Get one!

If you order a copy from Amazon and leave a glowing review, apparently you will be exempt from income tax this year 🤷🏻‍♀️

Or summarise: À la Recherche du Temps Perdu = cakes’n’pulling
THE BELL JAR

HARD ❌

It was a queer, sultry summer, the summer they electrocuted the Rosenbergs, and I didn't know what I was doing in New York

EASY ✅

That summer was sizzling, and so were the Rosenbergs
