So in June I read the following: The Cancer Survivor's Companion: Practical Ways to Cope with Your Feelings After Cancer by Frances Goodhart My rating: 5 of 5 stars I’m wavering between 4-5 for this book - I can’t think what I’d do differently, but also didn’t underline loads of stuff!

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.

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 liked the Hunger Games, you'll probably like these', which is probably a fair analysis!
