Gissy I watched your review about this novel and I totally agree with your comments. I love that cover so I ordered it. Also, I subscribed to your channel🤗I will be alert to those books recommendations but I confess that sometimes I read trashy books🤷🏽‍♀️😂I‘m following also Britta Bohler, Eric Karl Anderson and recently watched some interesting Greg videos (Supposedly fun) and Savidgereads and his mom videos. I wish I could be a fast reader☺️ 2y

Gissy Excellent recommendations. I will try one or two but I don‘t own those books so I will have to purchase them and wait to receive them. But I will be reading other books by Irish authors or set in Ireland. Some titles I know will be “trashy” reading for you☺️ 3y
