I chose to read Writing Success as a member of Rosie Amber’s Book Review Team and received a copy from the author. This does not change my review in any way. Writing Success is, as it says on the front cover, a book filled with inspiring stories of success, with hints and tips for […]
I thoroughly enjoyed getting back to the slower pace of life on the canal network around the UK, and catching up with a few old friends from Union Clues, plus some new faces, in the second part of this trilogy, Broken Lock. I loved Nathan, freshly released from prison he is the character you […]
I chose to read this book as a proud member of Rosie’s Book Review Team and received a copy from the author. This has not affected my review in any way. Backstories is a great idea. Take famous people from history, ancient or more recent, and write a short backstory about them allowing the […]
No More Mulberries is the beautifully written story of Miriam and Iqbal, and of their family and working life in the rural village of Sang-i-Sia, Afghanistan. Miriam is a midwife who was born in Scotland, but wholeheartedly takes on the traditions and culture of her life in Afghanistan. Iqbal, her husband, is a doctor […]
Goodness… where to start with my review of Penny Pinching Tips for the Morally Bankrupt. This is probably the most diverse book of short stories I’ve come across, and with such a range of eclectic stories, among the 43 in this volume, there’s bound to be something in there for everyone.

Following on from book 1 our three intrepid travellers have once more convened in India to spend a few weeks exploring (covering over 1500 miles) and consequently this […]
Arthur and Jessie’s first day trip to the seaside is momentous for two reasons. Firstly, because Jessie realises her feelings have deepened to love towards Arthur, someone she’s only ever considered a friend before. Secondly, because as they return home the announcement is made that Britain is at war. It is 1914 and Jessie […]
I chose to read this short book as a member of Rosie Amber’s Book Review Team and I was sent a copy by the author. This does not alter my review in any way. I should say at the beginning that I read the kindle version of this book but it features eleven […]
The wonderful Rosie Amber wrote a super post on this last week, which you can find HERE, and I thought I would do something similar. So, what has been getting me through this latest lockdown through the longest winter there has ever been. Obviously, these are in no particular order… Oliver! Thursday is now the […]
When I started writing I made the decision to review every book I finished, and I’ve stuck to that thinking I could hardly expect readers to review my books if I wasn’t willing to put the same effort into those I read. I spotted a superb 1-star review for The Joker the other day, I […]
