A one-sitting read! I didn't even realise that I was literally holding my breath half of the time I was reading this! Oh my word, this is an absolutely brilliant, unputdownable thriller that just doesn't stop until the completely unpredictable end that I truly did NOT see coming! Dr Jen Miller is living in a...

Jenny is in a bit of a rut, but oh my word, she is the most self-absorbed, miserable, judgemental so-and-so I've ever come across. I think that if I'd come face to face with her in the beginning of this book, I'd probably have wanted to slap her, or shake her very hard!! Yes, it's... Continue Reading →
I'm really thrilled to be a part of this blog tour for the 20th anniversary reprint of Shari Low's very first book, What If ...?

It's Day 2 of the Blog Tour for Swallowtail Summer, the new book by Erica James, and I must admit that when I saw she had a new book out, it did bring back memories of good times spent in book clubs over the years, as typically, hers are the type of books favoured by... Continue Reading →
I've always been a Sophie Kinsella fan. You can always rely on her for a light, amusing read with a main character who gets herself into a bit of a mess, but who manages to come right in the end. I Owe You One doesn't really stray from that theme, but for some reason, I... Continue Reading →
After reading this I did wonder if the whole idea of artist colonies and the like are really so great after all. All that ego and hedonism in one place! Is there really anywhere large enough to handle it?! Tamar Hodes has based this partly autobiographical novel on Hydra in the 60's. It's a time... Continue Reading →
It's Day One on a brand new blog tour ... Only in Whispers by Jacqueline Grima, published by Manatee Books, and arranged by tour organiser Tracy Fenton of Compulsive Readers/THE Book Club on FB.

I don't understand a thing when it comes to AI (Artificial Intelligence). I know that 'they' claim it's the way of the future, but I stand my ground in maintaining that there will only be a handful of very clever individuals who will understand it, and know how to use it to the best of...
