Still not taught this in schools 😡
@charl08 just finished my last read late last night so will be starting this one today - slightly ahead of schedule! Will try and remember to post as I go along!
pickBeautifully and brutally honestly written. Brett does not shy away from any of the tough stories about the rise and demise of the band.
To all the my #jbuk buddies that have sent me emails! Apologies I‘m a bit behind, have the dreaded lurgy - and have mostly been in bed since Sunday, tried to go back to work this morning and lasted an hour! Will hopefully send something round at the weekend.
pickAnother brilliant one in the series 👍🏻 they get creepier and creepier, a real mix between thriller and supernatural.
This is a #masterpiece to me.
I found a new cover in Waterstones the other day and hope it arrives in my Christmas books!

Thank you internet!
pickI get really sad when I realise that we‘re still fighting the same things I was fighting at 13....except I think probably worse as we now have the vile, toxic abuse on the internet!
But it was still really interesting reading what today‘s young women are trying to do in the name of feminism.
Today‘s in bed reading , no sleep last night and just couldn‘t get out of bed for work! A day in bed reading may help (well it definitely can‘t make it worse!)
pickBeen coming down with something all day, sore throat, headache, coughing!! That‘s my excuse for sitting on the couch and reading all afternoon.
I loved this one ❤️ dysfunctional family interactions, written wonderfully. A great read.
pickAnother great read from the author 👍🏻 the only books where romance and serial killers actually mix! (Not with the serial killers.....though I know that‘s a thing!!)
Always so many twists and turns, good stuff.
#weeklyforecast
WILL finish the Karen Rose one today, then finally onto Dutch House (been on the forecast last 3 weeks!), then some feminism and ending the reading week with a buddy read of Familiar Stranger with @charl08 . That‘s the plan anyway.
#borderline #movember
Not read either yet on my kindle.
#bookreport
No reading done yet today - been out shopping, eating and drinking with sisters, nieces, friends of family etc.....long day!
Anyway- finished two on the left, enjoyed both but Imaginary Friend one of my faves this year. Nearly half way through one on the right.
Tagged 😁
It‘s been a pretty crappy week, but received the above card from the SU rep that came on our recent trip to China! A well brought up young man!
Take away and wine 🍷
None living (4 originally)
Will do.
#friyayintro
pickAn engrossing read, encompassing everything about human relationships. Pius Mulvey - what a character. So many metaphors between the ship and Ireland at the time.
Thank you Danielle for the lovely gifts 😁😁 I‘ll look forward to reading this.
Litsy doesn‘t seem to want to let me tag you !! I‘ve emailed too 😘
Thank you Helen 😁 I have actually hid this from hubby as I‘ve just brought him this book for Christmas! Hoping he doesn‘t buy it before then 🤞🏻
PS. Can‘t believe the squirrel!
#likeaprayer #movember
Have a couple of Chernobyl books on my kindle that I haven‘t got to yet!
pickLoved this book. Very Stephen King like and I did guess the direction it was going, mainly because I‘ve read so many of these themed books.
Don‘t read if you don‘t like long, rambling books that expect you to suspend any rational thinking.
I hope he writes more like this as I need the books to fill in SK gaps 😁
Lunchtime read 😁 still ploughing through this one. Loving it though! Will try and finish tonight, but life may have other plans.
#beautifulstranger #movember
Quite a few on my kindle with beautiful in the title. Only these two with stranger. Not yet read either of them 😁
#ghosttown #movember
Some ghosts on my kindle 😁
#weeklyforecast
This lot looking likely at the moment. We‘ll see where the mood takes me!
#laislabonita #movember
Her books usually have some beautiful islands - though in this one they‘re not used for nice things!
#bookreport
I am drained from just finishing Know my Name, a powerful read.
The others were all great too, Heaven, My Home - second in the series, The Night Fire, Bosch still doing it and The Irish Princess - wonderful historical fiction from Chadwick as always.
Read 2/4 of original weekly forecast!
pickPowerful, inspiring, upsetting, heart breaking, empowering. Literally a breadth of emotions in this, I cried several times. But I also laughed. Chanel you are an amazing young woman.
The media and the justice system, I despair, I hope the narrative is changing, but I‘m not convinced yet.
#expressyourself - this book make me mad, sad, frustrated, angry, disappointed (in society) and annoyed and a million similar feelings. But I feel I owe it to Chanel to plough on.
#movember
A blame it on Cindy purchase!
pickFinally got a couple of hours tonight to finish this one. I wasn‘t sure how the Bosch/Ballard thing would work but I‘m liking it so far 😁 another good, solid read with plenty of action.
Everything: book recommendations, book chat and friendships, from around the world.
If I‘m not following or not interested in something I just scroll past - like you‘d tune out if it was a conversation in the pub. It‘s not a big issue.
Read alongs. Swaps when I feel like.
Really not sure 🤷♀️ I love it, things evolve.
Search your own posts somehow and post pictures in a conversation.
Generally every day
Thank you Carolyn and Misty 😁😘 very kind of you and I look forward to reading both of these! Came yesterday but I only saw them when I got in late last night!
Carolyn - that picture in the card is amazing isn‘t it!?
Thanks again.
Not book related!! No reading tonight watching OMD. Feeling very old as I was at the first tour 40 years ago 😱😱
pickHad a day off today, so squeezed another book in a day read! (That‘s my retirement aim)
This one was even better than the first, but he certainly is a complicated character that makes many questionable decisions. Here‘s to more in the series 👍🏻
Thanks Jess for the book and the lovely card that‘s just come today 😘
#girlgonewild #movember
I have 29 books on my kindle with girl in the title! The above 4 with gone and none with wild 🤷♀️ Girl is a very popular title obviously.
pickI have been craving some good historical fiction for a while now - it‘s because I‘m very fussy about time periods and authors.
Love Chadwick and love books set in Henry II period (with a little cameo from William Marshall). A great read stayed up past my bed time to finish!
#weeklyforecast
I basically just want to read all my birthday presents!!
Started The Irish Princess this morning. The rest of the week may come from these! Back in work and out two nights this week, limited reading time. 😕
pickLoved it ❤️ written as if Debbie was sat in front of you talking.
Interesting and honest, she seems to tell the truth even though she knows some things won‘t exactly make her look good.
#music #movember
She‘s one of us ❤️ loving this book.
If Debbie felt like this, there‘s no chance for us mere mortals is there.
#bookreport
This weeks finished books.
Run Away - usual fast paced good thriller from Coben.
Lying Room- not up to usual French standard I thought, just so-so.
Woolf- clever, wonderfully written and probably still rings true.
Poet X - loved it, well written (YA probably) in verse and good story/themes.
Notes- good, quick read. Nothing particularly new.
