Welcome to Litsy!

Another brief but engrossing instalment in the saga of The Slough House ‘slow horses‘, although Jackson Lamb is conspicuous by his absence.

Oops! I may have succumbed to the temptation of @muswellhillbookshop when I went to buy some milk. It was Catherine‘s fault really: without her exhortation to ‘stay away from that bookshop‘, the idea would never have occurred to me. #book #books #bookstagram #reading #muswellhillbookshop #muswellhill #n10 #mickherron #anthonyhorowitz #thedrop #louismacneice #lettersfromiceland #thesentenceisdeath #themartiangirl #bookshop #fiction #crimefiction

Another impulse pick up from work. This is why I shouldn't get bookish recommendation emails. Who knows when I'll get to this one lol. #winterreads #thriller #mickherron #tbr #impulse

This is simply marvellous. A brilliant mix of hilarity and well-plotted espionage thriller, in a frighteningly familiar and up to date setting.

I have been looking forward to this for a long time. Mick Herron‘s books featuring the grotesque Jackson Lamb have quickly established themselves as modern spy story classics. Very humorous although that never compromises the integrity of very well crafted plots. #mickherron #jacksonlamb #spyfiction #espionage #knutsford #currentlyreading #soy #thriller #london #slowhorses #sloughhouse
