One Two Buckle My Shoe is the first in a series and I really liked the setting for this easy read opener of what promises to be an excellent series of books.
Diamonds & Dust is a Victorian murder mystery set in London and written in the present.

Some of my most creative thoughts happen when on a dog walk, as do my best conversations with my dog-walking buddy. So I thought I’d invite some of my author friends along to join me and my girls and see if I can find out a little more about them and the book they’ve just […]
Today I start Hollywood Shakedown… We’re off exploring this morning, aiming to find a beach at Mgarr ix-Xini (you’re on your own with this one, I’ve never heard it said out loud…) A restaurant, called Rew Rew, that overlooks the bay has been recommended in our visitors book and we thought we’d check it out […]

Here I guarantee she will raise at the very […]
