Dear Edward by @annnapolitano was my first 5 star read of the year and I've reviewed it on my blog today (link in bio). Dear Edward tells the story of a plane crash in which Edward is the only survivor. He looses his parents and older brother and the story is about how Edward comes to terms with his survival and the loss of his family. A remarkable story, this was an emotional read but was ultimately heartwarming. I was lucky enough to meet the author last week and listen to her talk and it was really interesting. It took her 8 years to write! Thank you to @vikingbooksuk / @penguinukbooks for my #gifted copy. #dearedward #5starreads #fivestarreads #annnapolitano #bookreview #bookblogger #flatlay

Blog post today for The House on the Lake by Nuala Ellwood! I really enjoyed this thriller, it was both spooky and tense! Full review is on the blog (link in bio!) I had a great day yesterday with @lovedreadingthis and our youngest children in London which included a trip to the Sea Life Centre (for them) and a book event (for us!) I've been to a University applicant day with my oldest son which was a success and I'm back at work tomorrow for a rest! Hope you are having a good week #thehouseonthelake #nualaellwood #thrillerbooks #blogtour #bookbloggers #london #booksoutside #southbanklondon
Who says book bloggers don't buy books? These are last week's purchases! While I generally try and make do with my enormous TBR, sometimes you just have to have a splurge! Pictured are 3 hardbacks I couldn't wait for. Marian Keyes is an auto-buy author for me; The Foundlings by Stacey Halls just sounds wonderful and I've seen Can You Hear Me? everywhere and really wanted to read it. I went to an author talk at Waterstones last week and didn't intend to buy anything but accidentally bought Lake Child by Isabel Ashdown as it sounded so good. The two novellas are part of the Spotlight Series of books which aim to support under-represented writers. I went to the launch last week and these two stood out for me! Don't tell my family! #mariankeyes #grownups #thefoundlings #staceyhalls #canyouhearme #jakejones #isabelashdown #lakechild #spotlightseries #bookbloggers #bookstack #booksandflowers #newbooks
Even though we are over half way through February I figured it wasn't too late to #spellthemonthinbooks. Still haven't got a book that starts with Y so I cheated a little! Hope you've had a good weekend! It's school holidays here in the UK this week and I've got a couple of days off work. On Tuesday my son and I are meeting @lovedreadingthis and her son for some London fun! Then on Wednesday I'm taking the oldest to a University Applicants Day to try and help him decide where he wants to go! Have a great week! #followers #anechoofscandal #readyplayerone #andthemountainsechoed #burialrites #unravellingoliver #rebecca #harrypotterandthecursedchild #bookstack #bookspines
