I was tagged by the wonderful Pamela Power (thanks for the homework Pamela!). You can see her book confessions on her Vlog - Between the Sheets with Pamela, here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FkRuUYkhypo#action=share 1. Have you ever damaged a book? Not that I can recall.

BOOK REVIEW – The Devil’s Work by Mark Edwards
Sophie Greenwood has decided that the time is right to return to work after taking time off to be a full-time mom to 4-year old Daisy.

BOOK REVIEW – The Girl in the Ice by Robert Bryndza
Thank you to Netgalley and Bookouture for my advance copy of this book in return for an honest review. Wow!
