    I chose to read My Life in Horses as a member of Rosie Amber’s Book Review Team. I received a copy from the author but this does not alter my review one iota. My Life in Horses is a memoir and as such was hugely nostalgic for me. So many memories of my […]

Again, this is after the event but if you would like to see how my sugar detox went then please click here. (And if that doesn’t work as there is something up with my site this morning then I’ve put the link in the comments below – thank you!)   I might be a little […]

  I chose to read this book as a proud member of Rosie Amber’s Book Review Team. I received a copy from the author but this does not alter my review in any way. Dark Magic is a short book at around 96 pages and has a terrific hook right from the first line. The […]

  I know this is completely out of season but I’m playing catch up with all my reviews so we are where we are. A Christmas Carol is compulsory viewing in our house on Christmas Eve. The Patrick Stewart version, naturally. However, I’d never read the book, until this year. I actually started it after […]

  I offered to read and review The Solo Squid because it covers a subject close to my heart. I have been running my own one-person business for over 23 years now, and not always happily, so I was keen to find out what this author had to say on the subject. I received a […]

  I bought this short story a while ago because I like Jeanne Felfe’s writing but also because the profits from this are going to what I believe is a worthwhile fundraising campaign. Jeanne has extended this fundraising period to cover the first quarter of this year and I’ve copied below the information she gave […]

I chose to read A Sickness in the Soul as a member of Rosie Amber’s Book Review Team and received a copy from the author but this does not influence my review in any way. A Sickness in the Soul is part of The Ashmole Foxe Georgian Mysteries, a series of British historical mysteries set […]
