Thorne Moore has been on my radar as an author I must read for a long time now. In fact, as it turns out, I bought her book A Time for Silence back in 2014, but still haven’t got to it. And what a mistake that was. I chose to read The Covenant, the […]
I chose to read this book as a member of Rosie’s Book Review Team and the author sent me a copy. This does not affect my review in any way. Alfie Cooper is in his mid-eighties and lives unhappily in the Pinewood care home, but with no family to look after him he has […]
I think most of us can agree that the last six months have not been the easiest. Some might even suggest that is an understatement but this book of poetry has been written over the same six months and is remarkably upbeat and perky in tone. I found it a wonderfully refreshing read, even […]
I made a mistake when I downloaded Verity, which I won’t go into, but what a terrific mistake to make! I loved reading this book. It was a real page-turner, one which I wanted to go to bed early for so I could carry on reading. Lowen is a struggling writer who is asked […]
I wouldn’t usually choose fantasy to read, but, luckily for me, I didn’t know this was fantasy when I bought the book, which just goes to show you should always tread outside your comfort zone. I did know it was adventure though, and I do like an adventure. I have to say I was […]
Springtime for Murder is one of seven books in this cosy mystery series. I started it thinking it was book 1 for some reason but I can confirm, having found out it wasn’t, that it can be easily read as a standalone, as, I believe, can the others in the series. This tale starts […]
I chose to read this short book as a member of Rosie’s Book Review Team and the author sent me a copy. This does not affect my review in any way. This book is made up of short stories and flash fiction written by the author somewhere between high school and his mid-twenties. This is […]
Union Clues is the first book in a series and is set, mostly, in the world of narrowboats and canals, about which I know little. This story is split into three parts, each of which is told in the voice of its main character – Stella, Nancy and Dawn. It is a mystery but […]
You know that feeling you get when you realise you should have read a book months, if not years ago? Yup, I had that moment when I opened Newsletter Ninja. And the worst part about it is… I’ve had it on my kindle since 2018 and simply haven’t had the time to get to […]
I chose to read this novel as a proud member of Rosie’s Book Review Team and received a copy from the author. This does not affect my review in any way. The reader is warned at the beginning of this book that it is unrevised for authenticity and, for what follows, that is exactly […]
