#CurrentlyReading this one. I started it this afternoon and it already has me on the edge of my seat... Special thanks again to @joscho for sending it to me!!

And, of course, you have to love the tagline... Don't take #Candy from strangers.

Extra special shout out to my brother (who'll never see this 😂) for the props used in this photo lol

Not much reading today, but I did get to see the balloons launch at Spiediefest. I have some more pics on Instagram.

Two girls go missing, decades apart. What would you do if one was your daughter?
When eight-year-old Grace goes missing from a sweetshop on the way home from school, her mother Emma is plunged into a nightmare. As the police hunt begins, cracks begin to emerge.
What are the secret emails sent between Emma‘s husband and her sister? Why does her mother take so long to join the search? And is Emma really as innocent as she seems?

Mehso-so

Meh.
Pedestrian and predictable. Not a credible plot and I was desperate for this to grind to an end. Not unremittingly bad but, well, just, meh.

Next up is this-a-one... Audiobook version again. My last “read” helped me through a day of washing, ironing, hoovering (Dyson-ing if that‘s a word?), bed-making and kitten herding. Yes, that was me answering the door with my headphones on.
Only just started this and I‘m a little put off by the use of several narrators. Anyhoo, let‘s see how we go. Looks like harrowing subject matter so there‘s a cheery prospect, eh?

This fell into my inbox this morning. I like the sound of it. At 99 pence it was definitely worth a punt and then I saw just Qa.99 for the audiobook as well... Deal done.

Ms_T Looks interesting... 7y
Peterfox123 @Ms_T I'm ready for a bit of crime and mystery. It was either this or rob the Co-Op. 7y
Ms_T Hmm...*thinks*...I think you made the right choice. 7y
