Hidden by Catherine McKenzie My rating: 3 of 5 stars I found this book quite frustrating to read as the narrative bounced from character to character and across time zones, although the concept was intriguing enough to keep me reading. I still felt there were questions unresolved at the end…

Rooks at Dusk: On the Other Side of Despair, What Is Left to Believe In? by Chick Yuill My rating: 5 of 5 stars I'm always a little wary about 'Christian fiction' when it can feel a bit like Jesus is shoe-horned in in a way that makes no sense!…

Ink, the first of a trilogy, is set in a world where every significant thing you do, whether good or bad, is tattooed on your skin for everyone to see. There are no secrets. When you die, if you are deemed worthy, your tattoos are made into a book and…

Although I already have PLENTY of books waiting to be read on my Kindle (and my physical bookshelves), I wasn't feeling too well over Christmas, and an email came from Amazon offering The Gender Game and The Last Girl for 99p each - so I downloaded them ... sold as 'if you…

If you haven't seen Bridget Jones's Baby in the cinema, and you're looking for some light-hearted entertainment - I recommend it! Four of us sat in a row - we'd all seen the previous films - and we proper LOL'd much of the way through - unlike many 'third films',…

I've kept a handful of my classic books from childhood, and the Anne of Green Gables series is one I have read for a while, so whilst on leave I started re-reading them all, and last week finished the final one. Anne of Green Gables Anne of Avonlea Anne of…

If you've never read Georgette Heyer, can I just say that you may be missing out! Often confused with Mills & Boon, Heyer wrote these 'regency romances' 1920s onwards, the history in them is deeply researched, and the novels chuckle along without loads of random salaciousness that every M&B seems…
