I love Kobo. I love the platform and the people who are friendly and welcoming. I put my books wide a while ago now and I’m already feeling that soon I could be selling more books on Kobo than on another well know site. We shall see. Anyway, I was keen to read Killing it […]
I chose to read My New Superjob as part of Rosie Amber’s Book Review Team and received a copy from the author. This does not affect my review in any way. This short story is basically an interview, but one with a difference. Taking place in an unusual setting, which is very well described, Samantha […]
I received a copy of this book (which I chose to read as a member of Rosie Amber’s Book Review Team) from the author but that does not effect my review in any way. This is the first bilingual book I’ve seen and it caught my interest. I don’t speak Spanish although I learnt it […]
I generally don’t share personal stuff on the blog. Maybe I should, maybe I shouldn’t, I don’t know. However, a certain someone arrived in my life a week ago who most definitely has me shouting from the roof tops. I’d like to introduce you to my first grandchild, Oliver Kevin, with a special thank you […]
I was fortunate enough to be asked to go along to one session of Brilliant Books to talk to the students at Djanogly City Academy in 2017. Over a 6 week course other guests also took part in the scheme to encourage reading and writing in the classroom and beyond. I thoroughly enjoyed my time […]
Sometime the speed time passes shocks me and I was surprised to discover that although I bought this book in 2015 I somehow missed reading it then (it was an extraordinarily busy year!) and although it’s been on my to-be-read list I’ve only just got to it. What a treat it was though! No Ordinary […]
I grew up on a book diet of Enid Blyton and loved the Famous Five. I received this book as a gift and in it the five are all grown up so this is Blyton for adults. Having said that it is still a gentle read but the group drink and swear a little – […]
The Blind Assassin is a long book by today’s standards. My paperback copy is 637 pages, but every one of them is a joy to read. The writing is exquisite, each detail and description thoughtful and showing the fertility of Atwood’s imagination. Iris Chase is remembering her sister Laura’s mysterious death, 50 years after the […]
Congeal by John F Leonard is a post-apocalyptic horror story which I chose to read as a member of Rosie Amber’s Book Review Team. I received a copy from the author but this does not affect my review at all. I think this is the longest story I have read from this author but the […]
