This is not the first book on King Richard III that I have read this year, so little of it was a surprise or new info. It was, however, written in a very accessible, readable way, backed by contemporary sources without becoming bogged down in minutiae. There's a lot in the book about King Edward IV's reign which allows us to see glimpses of a young Richard, but there is comparatively little information about his early life. (continued)

OutsmartYourShelf Richard has been villanised over the centuries but compared to other English monarchs he was neither a saint or a monster. Some historians made much of the murders of the 'Princes in the Tower' but swept Henry VIII's role in the horrific death of Margaret Pole, Countess of Salisbury, & the disappearance of her young grandson, Henry Pole the Younger (thought to be around 13 years of age when he disappeared into the Tower of London & from history - 2d
OutsmartYourShelf possibly starved to death) under the carpet as it were. I thought that this book was written in a very balanced, giving evidence both for & against Richard's role in the death of his two nephews & the additional chapter from Dan Jones on the discovery & reburial of Richard's remains ends the story. 4🌟

My thanks to #NetGalley & publishers, Head of Zeus/Apollo, for the opportunity to read an ARC.

I've seen the drama and read the first volume of the manhwa so I was interested to see what the novel would be like.

The two characters have very unique voices which made it easy to identify with the shifting POV.

It was fun to see their different interpretations on things and their thought processes. It added a lot of depth to the characters and their interactions.

PuddleJumper I did find the pacing challenging. Some bits were slow, some bits were fast, and it made the reading experience a bit jarring.

I would definitely recommend it to fans of the show/manhwa because it adds another dimension to the story.

Thanks to #NetGalley and Yen Press for the #ARC

No one is expecting Nancy to return to Eleanor‘s School. But ghosts are killing the living statutes of the Halls of the Dead. & Nancy needs all the help she can get.

Love the return of Nancy! The story got to acknowledge how hurtful her leaving had been, showed friends reconnecting after a long time apart, gave us insights into 2 new worlds! I was frustrated by who the villain turned out to be, otherwise a solid entry into this series!🌕🌕🌕🌕🌑

For 3 years earth has been in the grip of the Great Thaw - winter was postponed indefinitely with wide-reaching repercussions. Now the Great Thaw is over, Ben Baldwin decides to take his family on a short holiday to a remote Highland cabin retreat. The cold is not the only thing that has returned though - Belsnickel, who punished the bad whilst St Nick rewarded the good, has been asleep but he is now awake & he smells mischief everywhere.

OutsmartYourShelf Liked: the premise of using the antithesis of Santa Claus for a horror book, & the effects of climate change on the rest of the planet. I think at times, humans tend to forget that other flora & fauna would be affected & using a supernatural being to illustrate this was well done. It was fast-paced for the most part with the final third an out & out slasher horror, & I loved the isolated cabins setting. 4d
OutsmartYourShelf Disliked: It could perhaps have been a bit longer, allowing the readers to connect to some of the characters before they meet their grisly end. 3.25⭐

My thanks to #NetGalley & publishers, Victory Editing NetGalley Co-op, for the opportunity to read an ARC.

Joyful, Anyway | Kate Bowler

Just got this #NetGalley #ARC for this #April2026 #RandomHouse release! Seems right down my alley!

After surviving a stage-four cancer diagnosis, Kate Bowler knew she was supposed to be grateful. But still she ached for more connection, more surprise, less resentment on an ordinary day.

So she went looking for joy that sneaks in unexpectedly: A lemur sunbathing. A belly laugh at a funeral. A dive into the Atlantic with a shark wrangler.

This really does take you on a journey to get to the truth but I enjoyed the ride. It jumps from past to present and from Laurel to Rosie but it also has the odd chapter by other characters. I like this style as it adds more depth to the story. THe plot is clever and filled with a few twists along the way. The ending was dark but very well written. You're never truly sure who to like or even trust in this #Netgalley 4*.
