Good. Follows on from The Miniaturist. Enjoyable story about family and how secrets can affect them.

Good. Even though at times the writing was a bit disjointed and rushed I felt immersed in Victorian London and that made the story so interesting.

Very good. Even though this is a reread for me it still makes me laugh out loud. At this point in my life I can relate to her life struggles especially the dating struggles. Love how this edition has the back story of Bridget Jones and also how Bridget Jones has coped with Brexit and the coronavirus lockdown. Adds another layer to her story.

If like me, you have ever wondered what life in a refugee camp is like, then please pick up this book, now out in an updated paperback edition. The Dadaab Refugee Camp in northern Kenya is home to half a million people. This book looks at the lives of nine of its residents. Timely and necessary. #diversereads #ReadOutsidetheLines #refugees #Picador

Trying to decide if I'm ready for this one at this particular point in time 🤔 #Picador #ReadPastFear
