⭐GIVEAWAY⭐ Happy bank holiday weekend! Today I'm excited to be able to offer you a chance to win your very own copy of new supernatural psychological thriller, The Forgotten Girl by @rio_youers as part of the @titanbooks Instagram tour! Lots of instagrammers have been saying great things about this book this week! The Blurb: Harvey Anderson is a twenty-six-year-old street performer from New Jersey. He likes his peaceful life, but everything he knows is turned upside down when he is abducted and beaten by a group of thugs who have spent the last nine years searching for Harvey’s girlfriend, Sally Starling. There's only one problem: Sally is gone and Harvey has no memory of her. Sally has the unique ability to selectively erase a person’s memories. An ability she has used to delete herself from Harvey’s mind. But as Harvey recovers from his beating, he discovers that Sally left him with one partial memory... a dancing girl in a blue dress. Life isn’t peaceful for Harvey anymore, and he soon finds himself in a war he can never win. Or can he? To win your own copy: ⭐ Be following both myself and @titanbooks (I will be checking) ⭐ Tag two friends in the comments ⭐ For an extra entry, share this post to your stories for 24 hours. This giveaway is in partnership with @titanbooks but is not connected to Instagram. Entrants must be over 16 and must be willing to share their name and address with me.

I don't really do parenting books but Confessions of a Bad Mother: The Teenage Years was funny while offering lots of great advice! Stephanie Calman talks about her kids Lawrence and Lydia and their progression from the age of 7 when teenage tendencies start to kick in, to their actual teenage years as they learn independence to when they leave home. This made me laugh out loud several times. Full review on the blog today. Photo taken on a real teenage boys bed! I was going to take it with my messy teenager's bedroom in the background but couldn't bare sharing the mess! #confessionsofabadmother #teenagers #nonfictionbooks #parentingguides #bookblogger #blogtour #bookreview #flatlay #gifted
Today we have an orange TBR stack in honour of the sun that shone today! 🌞 I met my friend for lunch and we sat outside...maybe summer is finally about to happen! Do you see any here you'd like to read for that I should move up the pile? Now I've got them all in front of me I'm wondering why I haven't read them yet! #orangebooks #tbr #tbrproblem #jennsrainbowchallenge #bookstack #donttellteacher #thecostofliving #birdsofamerica #theboyonthebridge #thesummerofimpossiblethings #thelostvintage #theonewhowrotedestiny #bookblogger

Let Me Be Like Water by S K Perry was the Brighton City Reads Choice for 2019. It's about 23 year old Holly, who moves to Brighton after the death of her boyfriend Sam. She soon meets Frank, a retired gay magician who introduces her to an eclectic mix of people who help her come to terms with her grief. I loved that it was set in Brighton - the author did a great job of writing about it (I've lived in Brighton in the past and still live close by.) It's a sad story...the whole book is about Holly's grief but the power of friendship is an overriding theme too. Really enjoyed this. My blog post is up today (link in bio) Hope you've had a good weekend. Ours has been pretty quiet but I've done lots of jobs and am feeling positive about the week ahead! #letmebelikewater #skperry #bookclubreads #bookclub #cityreads #brightoncityreads #brightonbooks #booksaboutgrief #booksaboutfriendship #bereavement #grief #bookreview #bookblogger #booksoutside #booksandwater
Yesterday @making_up_junk and myself had an unexpected day to ourselves so took ourselves off to Chartwells, which was Winston Churchill's home. I've wanted to go ever since seeing it in The Crown and it was a great place to visit. The house is lovely...there are books everywhere and the grounds are just idyllic! Photographs are of the library, the breakfast room and exterior of the house. Do you like visiting houses of historical figures? I think I'm officially middle aged! #libraries #librariesofinstagram #winstonchurchill #chartwellhouse #nationaltrust #worldwar2 #historicalfigures #statelyhomes #librariansofinstagram #historybuff
