What a thrill, as well as an honour to be kicking off the blog tour today for Michael Connelly's latest book, Dark, Sacred Night! In this police procedural, Connelly teams up his well-known and familiar detective Harry Bosch, who's now left the police force, with his fairly new character, LAPD detective Renée Ballard. After a … Continue reading BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Dark Sacred Night by Michael Connelly

BLOG TOUR REVIEW – This Stolen Life by Jeevani Charika
A beautiful story about 2 gentle souls who find each other in the midst of attempting to navigate the landscape of a country far from home, where everything seems strange. They instantly recognise in each other a familiarity and comfort, while at the same time realising that their relationship is one that will not meet … Continue reading BLOG TOUR REVIEW – This Stolen Life by Jeevani Charika
BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Bridesmaids by Zara Stoneley
Anyone who's ever been involved in planning a wedding, whether it's their own, or a friend or family member's, knows that the final product (everything and everyone looking beautiful, smiles all around, hugs and kisses etc. etc.) certainly doesn't tell the full story! Not by a long shot! Bridesmaids is the story of Rachel's journey … Continue reading BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Bridesmaids by Zara Stoneley
BLOG BLITZ REVIEW – Rosie & Ruby by Patricia Dixon
Women who aren't fit to be mothers; men who aren't fit to be husbands; girls who can't wait to be free of their roots to make lives of their own and create new futures. Unfortunately, it's not always fiction. Rosie and Ruby are cousins with equally appalling mothers. Rosie's mom care's more about appearances than … Continue reading BLOG BLITZ REVIEW – Rosie & Ruby by Patricia Dixon
BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Our Life in a Day by Jamie Fewery
In the early 90's there was this really popular American sitcom starring Helen Hunt and Paul Reiser, that I really loved, called Mad About You. For some reason, Our Life in a Day reminded me of that! Tom and Esme are your average "noughties" couple. They meet at a party, get to know each other, … Continue reading BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Our Life in a Day by Jamie Fewery
BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Swallowtail Summer by Erica James
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 BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Swallowtail Summer by Erica James
BLOG TOUR REVIEW – A Clean Canvas by Elizabeth Mundy
This was quite a different sort of crime read. Lena (pronounced Lay-na, not Lea-ner to rhyme with cleaner, although she thinks she should have reconsidered naming her business 'Lena's Cleaners) is a bit of an amateur sleuth, by all accounts. However, mostly she's a rather diligent business-woman who runs her own cleaning service. A Hungarian … Continue reading BLOG TOUR REVIEW – A Clean Canvas by Elizabeth Mundy
BLOG TOUR REVIEW – One Last Summer By Victoria Connelly
A beautiful, sensitive and thought-provoking read about who we really want to spend time with when we know that our time is limited. This also hit very close to home as the ladies in the book are only very slightly younger than I am and these types of issues are similar to the ones that … Continue reading BLOG TOUR REVIEW – One Last Summer By Victoria Connelly
BLOG BLITZ REVIEW – The Feud by Amanda James
Another book set in a village (we all know how much I love those)! This time, the village of St. Agnes in Cornwall and there's a 200-year-old feud thrown into the mix, together with the expected undercurrent of menace and unease. I loved that gothic touch that was added in here, and I absolutely adored … Continue reading BLOG BLITZ REVIEW – The Feud by Amanda James
BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Amazing Grace by Kim Nash
Kim Nash is very special to me. She's one of the very first book publicists I made contact with when I first became a reviewer!! I'm absolutely thrilled that she's now become the published author of this absolutely lovely book - the first of what I hope will be many more! I think I smiled … Continue reading BLOG TOUR REVIEW – Amazing Grace by Kim Nash
