My last #12booksof2024 for #December is very appropriate for this graphic/challenge @Andrew65 !

Stephen argues that the 12 gifts in the song are actually ALL UK birds, and his argument is pretty convincing, although there are some weak links.

Honourable mentions for the second half of the year:
Dead Simple by Peter James
Bible of the Dead by Tom Knox

The 2 books from the Waterstone's sale!

My one book I received for Christmas! I have to read some physical books before I can splurge, but I did buy a couple in the Waterstone's sale - see my next post!

Honourable mentions for the first half of the year:
Matrix by Lauren Groff
Dissolution by CJ Sansom

Another women's prize for non-fiction book.

#12booksof2024 #march @Andrew65

An interesting look at what Thomas Hardy's life COULD have been like during the writing of Tess of the D'Urbevilles and what it MIGHT have been like the days after his first wife's (Emma) death.

I tried to read all the books nominated for the Women's Prize for Nonfiction, so a couple of these come from there.

As I don't think I'm going to complete my challenges this year, I'm posting my final picks for the prompts.

#aty24 @BarbaraBB

Hello Litsy!
I know it's been a while since I posted, but it's a combination of the app not working, a broken hip, and a reading slump!
Anyway, this book has helped get me out of the 4 month reading slump, so I recommend it with reservations. The next picture I post will be under a spoiler, as it contains the content warnings.

It was very close between The Word is Murder and Dead Simple (hence the bonus pick), but considering that I've already bought another book in the Horowitz series and not the James, I think it means this book won for September.

Best book for August!

This is a definite new favourite series! I can't say too much about this because we haven't discussed it yet, but I feel for Shardlake. He doesn't seem to get a break from some of his problems!

I'm doing the series on Audible, and Steven Crossley does a fab job of doing different voices for the characters.

No surprise that this is my top book for July!

With the tagged book being my last read for July, I hit my page goal! Any more is an added bonus - I didn't know at what number to set my goal so the final result will be a surprise!

#popsugar #recommendedbyabookseller - this was recommended to me when I went for my reading spa at Mr B's in Bath a couple of years ago!

Thank you for my #staycationintimeswap! I love everything and looking forward to reading the books whilst drinking the coffee!

I picked up the book on Monday, & finished it on Wednesday! 😂

This is my second Percival Everett (after Dr. No), & I'm searching out the backlist (luckily, I have a few on Kindle already). Considering I don't like Huckleberry Finn, I'm surprised at how much I enjoyed this retelling! It's not quite 5 stars, as there were a couple of bits that were hard to read.

It's arrived!

There is no photo of the parcel, but the #staycationintime swap is coming!

June's best book of the month!
