My Alice collection, with a new book by Anna James, Alice with a Why, taking centre stage. It's a great read, and very in line with Carroll's writing and style. I loved it!

100% a hidden gem. Adored this. One of my favourite reads of the year so far.

Another fabulous book from Paige Toon. I love that they meet on the very first page of the book, and the whole story is them. It's an emotional, exhilarating rollercoaster from start to finish and I loved it.

Thanks to Penguin for the ARC in exchange for my review.

Book 3 in the Scott Jericho series really packs a punch!
A perfect crime thriller and as gripping as the first two, with a cliff-hanger ending so shocking I had to message the author and tell him I was going to hunt him down! 😀Thanks to @zaffrebooks.bsky.social for my copy #booksky

This book certainly packs a punch. It is a multi-narrative, told from several people's perspectives. It is a book about grief, as four people meet in therapy to process the loss of a loved one. Bring tissues!

First-Time Caller is a practically perfect romantic story. It is laugh out loud funny, heartwarming and I loved every page. It's crying out for a film adaptation with someone sexy and gorgeous like Riley Keogh playing Lucie. Loved, loved, loved this book!

I always feel resentful about all these add ons. The only "service" I got was a crashed website and 40 minutes to try to get through. They should be paying me that for my time!
