Sight by Jessie Greengrass
'Wow' seems to be a wholly inadequate way to express how I feel about Sight, and yet it's pretty much all I had for at least an hour after closing the back cover. The concept is so simple: a woman considering whether or not she wishes to be a mother, revisiting her childhood and her … Continue reading Sight by Jessie Greengrass
The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella
I will be very honest and say I picked this book up on the fly and was solely attracted by the cover. Looking for a fun read to pack into the beach bag on holiday, I saw pink and grabbed for it. The Undomestic Goddess tells the story of Samantha, a high powered city lawyer whose … Continue reading The Undomestic Goddess by Sophie Kinsella
The Rise and Fall of Becky Sharp by Sarra Manning
Back in 2007 Vanity Fair was on the reading list for my English Literature degree. I bought the rather sizeable book and put off reading it for as long as I possibly could, somewhat intimidated by its size. However, when I could put off the inevitable no longer, it actually became one of my favourite … Continue reading The Rise and Fall of Becky Sharp by Sarra Manning
Watch For Me At Christmas by Kirsty Ferry
Kirsty Ferry is fast turning into one of my go-to authors for when I need a zing of brightness in my day! I was originally introduced to her work with Watch For Me By Candlelight and after reading and reviewing Summer at Carrick Park earlier in the year, I jumped at the opportunity to read … Continue reading Watch For Me At Christmas by Kirsty Ferry
Fallible Justice by Laura Laakso
I shall start by being perfectly honest - a crime/fantasy novel is not something I would ordinarily read. However, when I read the synopsis for Fallible Justice there was something in it that sang to me, and I knew that I had to read it! The author, Laura Laakso has created an entirely different reality in … Continue reading Fallible Justice by Laura Laakso
The Stepsister by Jenny O’Brien
When the email landed in my inbox inviting me to take part in this tour I was truly gutted that due to prior commitments I wasn't able to read and review The Stepsister in time for the tour. Described as a gripping psychological thriller, it looks absolutely brilliant, and the reviews I have been seeing … Continue reading The Stepsister by Jenny O’Brien

A Spark of Light by Jodi Picoult
To say that I was excited to be approved to review this novel via Netgalley is an understatement. I squealed. Loudly. It is without exception my most anticipated release of the year, and I already have my ticket to see Jodi speak in Sheffield next week as part of the UK launch of the novel. … Continue reading A Spark of Light by Jodi Picoult
