I was really pleased to be asked to join the #neglectedfaithfuls challenge started by @hook.me.a.book I’ve been keen to read Matt Cain for a while having read rave reviews for Albert Entwhistle from some fellow #bookstagrammers I’ve enjoyed my first #buddyread of the year with The House in the Cerulean Sea by TJ Klune. I was a HUGE fan of Friends, I’d watch it but tape it at the same time so I could watch it all over again, I owned all the videos and when videos died a death, I replaced them all on DVD, which still have pride of place on my shelves today. Even now, it’s a rare day when an episode doesn’t get put on the tv. I was invited to take part this year in a group where we all read our #neglectedfaithfuls - books by authors we love but have neglected, or books we’d love to read but have been languishing far too long in the TBR. Tonight at @therabbithole.brigg Reading Group, the first for 2023, we’ll be talking #wearethebrennans by @tracey_lange Happy publication day to @janice.hallett and the fantastic #themysteriouscaseofthealpertonangels This rather lovely journal from @lswmindcards turned up for me - a complete surprise and there was no note but I love it so thank you very much! Introducing my current obsession…..
