I am a long time fan of Lesley Pearse, and to date there has only been one of her novels which hasn't quite hit the mark for me, which is a pretty impressive record bearing in mind this is her 27th novel! I was thrilled to be in the privileged position to be able to … Continue reading You’ll Never See Me Again by Lesley Pearse
A Secret Rose by Kirsty Ferry
I always look forward to reading the latest release from Kirsty Ferry, as not only are they so easy to get into, they are full to bursting with everything I need to fully escape from real life for a little while! A Secret Rose is no different. A time slip based in Cornwall, art dealer … Continue reading A Secret Rose by Kirsty Ferry
The Sea Refuses No River by Bethany Rivers
I am so pleased to be on the Random Things blog tour today for The Sea Refuses No River by Bethany Rivers. My thanks to Anne Cater for inviting me to take part, and to Fly on the Wall Press for gifting me a copy of the book. From the off, I was rather entranced … Continue reading The Sea Refuses No River by Bethany Rivers
Pilgrim by Louise Hall
I was lucky enough to win a signed copy of this book in a Twitter competition, and it's one that I've been intrigued by since it arrived. I was initially concerned that Pilgrim would be a little too heavy on the religious side for me, but at it's heart, the novel is about faith and … Continue reading Pilgrim by Louise Hall
My Name is Monster by Katie Hale
From the off there is a dizzying sense of unease and unfamiliarity with My Name is Monster. I found myself reading and desperately trying to make this world fit within my own, grasping for something known to me - of course, that is the beauty of dystopian fiction. The taking of what we know and … Continue reading My Name is Monster by Katie Hale
Echo Murder by Laura Laakso
Last year I shifted way out of my comfort zone and read Fallible Justice (you can read the review here), the first in the Wilde Investigations series by Laura Laakso. A crime/fantasy hybrid is something I ordinarily would have steered clear of - but I was drawn to the book, and although it took a … Continue reading Echo Murder by Laura Laakso
A Pirate’s Song by Justin Davis
A little bit different for me on this blog, but I am delighted to open the blog tour today for A Pirate's Song by Justin Davis. My thanks to Claire at Blue Falcon Publishing for the review copy. As it is half term, this is without doubt a very timely blog tour. A Pirate's Song … Continue reading A Pirate’s Song by Justin Davis
The Best of Crimes by K.C. Maher
Ok. So.…...wow. I have been utterly immersed in The Best of Crimes by K.C. Maher for the best part of today, and never have I read a book where I've felt so conflicted. The main character, Walter Mitchell tells the story via first person narration, and his searing honesty is what makes this book both … Continue reading The Best of Crimes by K.C. Maher
Juliet the Maniac by Juliet Escoria
My thanks to Nikki Griffiths at Melville House for the ARC copy of Juliet the Maniac. This is the type of book that, were I not running this book blog, I most likely would never have found, let alone chosen to read. However, when I was offered the opportunity to read it, there was something … Continue reading Juliet the Maniac by Juliet Escoria
Take Me To The Edge by Katya Boirand
It is a pleasure to open the blog tour today for Take Me To The Edge by Katya Boirand. My thanks to Anne Cater for inviting me to take part. When I first read the concept for this collection of poetry, I think I nearly snapped Anne's virtual arm off. All of the poems in … Continue reading Take Me To The Edge by Katya Boirand
