pickGood. Follows a couple and how they negotiate their feelings about each other following a break up. Full of rich detail which kept me turning the page. Thank you #MichaelJoseph and #PenguinRandomHouse for inviting me to read this via #Netgalley.

pickConnie Willis at her madcap best. A mashup of screwball comedy/road movie/alien invasion with a perfectly wacky cast of characters including the most lovable alien since Project Hail Mary‘s Rocky. Are there easily avoidable misunderstandings? Naturally. Does everything work out in the end via totally implausible turns of events? Of course! But none of that detracts from the highly entertaining romp through the desert and the world of UFO hunters.
pickGood. Focuses on a group of friends and how they respond to life and how it can change both the friendships and people themselves. Also shows how we can focus on certain places in our lives that bring us joy but it can get ruined by nostalgia. Another great book by Emily Henry. Thank you #PenguinRandomHouse for inviting me to read this via #Netgalley.

Look at this lovely tea-towel I just received from #penguinrandomhouse and #waterstones for reviewing the tagged book.
The book is published today (in the UK - it‘s already a BOTM in the US) and is definitely worth a read…one of my favourites this year!
Happy Pub Day !! 🥳🎉📚

pickVery good. Another powerful story from this wonderful author. Even though this is a love story between two people it is also a love story towards yourself. It shows that sometimes you just need to deal with your own love connection with yourself before anything else. Love how the author uses the island as a character in itself.

Every July I get a comp check for overtime shifts not paid out. I spent it in a big way today. Sorry not sorry. This is my accumulation for the past two weeks. I'm so excited. A couple are freebies from #penguinrandomhouse #readerrewards No idea where to start.
pickI needed to be reminded to chill the 🤬 out. Is this some break through parenting advice? No. Was it full of easy to digest platitudes? Yes. And, they didn't make me feel like a crappy parent or that I couldn't achieve the goal written about. So, that gets it a thumbs up from me. #parenting #parenthood #mothed #father #child #pshychology #selfhelp #familytherapy #relationship #penguinrandomhouse #stevenfonso #findingmagicinthemess #usedbooks
pickThanks to #penguinrandomhouse for the ARC of this book.
This is a real road-trippy book - Anne-Marie is just getting by after her husband left her on their first anniversary. When he turns up 2 years later, there‘s an incident and the pair end up on the run.
It‘s a soft pick for me; it‘s beautifully written but there‘s no plot line to speak of, no ending and it felt very much like an extended short story.
Always exciting to be offered an ARC! So new it‘s not even in the Litsy database yet....
The blurb sounds great so I‘m looking forward to this one.
