Hello Saturday Readers Club! It’s not everyday you find a murder mystery with some serious depth, but here is one very clever and heart-warming whodunnit! ‘The Thursday Murder Club’ was a birthday gift from my best friend and it became my less intense spooky season choice (after the drag that was Stephen King’s ‘Apt Pupil’…), … Continue reading ‘The Thursday Murder Club’ by Richard Osman
Good evening my lovely readers, I hope you’ve all had a splendid Monday! Unfortunately, this isn’t the most splendid of books I have to review for you today! Although, as always, each to their own! I’d love to hear what you think! Sadly, for me, this book has only confirmed that I need a good … Continue reading ‘Apt Pupil’ by Stephen King
Good evening, my wonderful readers! I have a pretty mediocre book to share with you today… but I do have to admit that I seem to be the odd one out with this reaction. Lots of fellow reviewers seemed to be absolutely loving Helen Hoang’s trilogy, so when it popped up on Netgalley, I jumped … Continue reading ‘The Heart Principle’ by Helen Hoang
Good evening readers! And my sincerest apologies for the delay with this review! The latest novel from Victoria Hislop is yet another journey through Greek scenery and history.

I have a great upcoming gem of a novel for you today by one of my favourite authors… Kiley Dunbar has a very special set of skills - not like Liam Neeson in every film he makes, but just as effective! She writes … Continue reading ‘Matchmaking at Port Willow’ by Kiley Dunbar

Hello my lovely readers, This Sunday I’ve got an interesting book to review for you. Told through the eyes of one man, allowed to be present due to his ability to write, this is the story of a group of Mennonite women conducting a secret meeting. For two years they have suffered attacks from demons … Continue reading ‘Women Talking’ by Miriam Toews
Hello readers! I have to admit, I don’t usually feel this passionately against a book. I try to be kind and try to be appreciative of a range of literary talents, but I would highly recommend not wasting your time on this repetitive, overly long “thriller”… The story of this novel follows Grace in the … Continue reading ‘The House on the Edge of the Cliff’ by Carol Drinkwater
Hello my beautiful readers, I have returned from a little Scottish venture and have got a fantastic feminist feat of writing to share with you! This book follows the lives of three real, unrelated women and the sexual experiences that seem to define their lives. Each chapter jumps from woman to woman, following each of … Continue reading ‘Three Women’ by Lisa Taddeo
Happy Saturday, readers! Here I am with my third 5 star review of the year! This time, a fantastic young adult murder mystery - although by no means should this only be read by teenagers. Even Minx the cat loved it! The premise is simple: five students go into detention, one dies under mysterious circumstances … Continue reading ‘One Of Us Is Lying’ by Karen M. McManus
