I don’t read thrillers, but I read about Dear Child by Romy Hausmann on Yvonne’s blog and on Kelly’s. I’m so glad I read it because I couldn’t put it down. Although reading this after watching The Fall, a fantastic series about a serial killer…
I picked up a copy of The Christmas Party by Karen Swan from the library. I went to get a reserved book for next year and the librarians had a small Christmas related display. Unusually for me, I got three books, thinking that if I…
Cilka’s journey by Heather Morris is the second book I read by her. It was published earlier this month and I was so keen on reading it. The first book I read was The Tattooist of Auschwitz (see my review linked at the end of…
Lolita by Vladimir Nabokov is one of the most controversial novels of the twentieth century. It is one of the classic books I challenged myself to read this year. I was reluctant to pick it, because of the story, but I was curious at the…
I wanted to read The librarian of Auschwitz by Antonio Iturbe after I saw Dita at BBC Breakfast. The book is about her, a fourteen-year-old child that is living in the concentration camp at Auschwitz. She is designated as the secret librarian by Jewish leader…
Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine by Gail Honeyman is a novel (almost) everybody knows about. It was the winner of Costa Book Awards in 2017 and I’ve read reviews for it on a lot of blogs. Finally I’ve borrowed it from the library and I’ve…
I’ve heard about The Tattooist of Auschwitz by Heather Morris, I’ve read reviews on blogs, like the one made by Sarah at salocainwonderland.co.uk. I loved the book, with the picture of the entrance to Auschwitz and the uniforms the prisoners would wear. Of course, I…
I received Angelica Stone by Susi Osborne as part of a Book Blog Tour*. It is the story of Angelica Stone, a victim of sexual abuse that resulted in psychological trauma. She was reluctant to allow others in her life, but becomes best friend with…
Inner Harbor by Nora Roberts is the third book in the Chesapeake Bay Saga. I took it from the bookshelves on a whim, before leaving for a short holiday, camping in Oxfordshire. This is the love story of Phillip Quinn and Dr Sybill Griffin. He…
Shopaholic Ties the Knot by Sophie Kinsella is the third book in the Shopaholic Series. I’ve already blogged about Confessions of a Shopaholic and Shopaholic Abroad, the first two in the series. While the other two got a 4 stars, this one is 4.5 stars.…
My Not So Perfect Life by Sophie Kinsella was a book I wanted to read, but didn’t think I would be able to do so soon. I didn’t even take a picture of it for my “currently reading” update. A few days ago I went…
Confessions of a Shopaholic by Sophie Kinsella is the first book in the Shopaholic series, but the second one I’ve read. I should have started with it, as some of the things that happened in this book will be mentioned in the second book, Shopaholic…
I’ve been reading a few books by Sophie Kinsella in the last few years, but I didn’t stick to the Shopaholic series. Now I plan to read more from the series. When it comes to other books by her, last year I’ve read I’ve Got…
