‘Together their life was a lie‘
I enjoyed my holiday read and have also enjoyed reading a psycho-thriller ‘He said, She said‘ which centres around an accusation of assault. Slightly predictable ending though!
No idea what to expect from this one- I loved the cover but I haven‘t read anything else by this author!
Let‘s find out! X
Cannot wait to give this a read!!
Busy day so now a read in the garden whilst my puppy collects bricks!
‘It‘s time for a wake up call.‘
After two months of not being able to read with exam marking commitments I am so glad to pick up a book.
I love Cecelia Ahern and I‘m hoping I won‘t be disappointed!
pickI thoroughly enjoyed this book.
It deals with struggles with gender identity, friendship and relationships.

New read 👍🏻🙌🏻
pickLoving this so far!
so-soJust started this...I‘m a few chapters in. Dual narrative before/after is slightly obvious it let‘s hope it picks up!
Nowhere and no one is safe.
Happy Sunday everyone!
pick9/10.
I got frustrated with the subplot though- it didn‘t bring much.
The villainous character makes your skin crawl. I can‘t wait to read Let Me Lie!
pickTeaching this today with sixth form. They need to compare it to poetry by Christina Rossetti. 😁
Group presentations in response to a critical stimulus ... I‘m excited to see what they can produce :)
Have an excellent day everyone!
pickI loved this book. It‘s now 5.15am and I‘ve been up since 3.30am...
Raymond was the shining star of this book ⭐️ We need more kindness in the world.
Have an excellent day, everyone.
💓💓Please let me know if you made or received a small act of kindness today 💓 💓
1. Read and drink coffee (maybe go shopping!)

4. Eleanor Oliphant is completely fine (hooked!)

‘Nothing is missing from her carefully timetabled existence. Except, sometimes, everything...‘
A beautiful, lovely read that puts the world to rights 💓
pickAbout halfway through this and I‘m enjoying it.
It‘s an easy read and quite nice to dip in and out of!
If you like stories exploring difficult family relationships then this is perfect!

Alternating my love of crime thrillers with festive romances this month!
Really looking forward to drinking tea and putting a candle on to read this 🕯💗📚
pickDifferent from any others that I have read so far! I‘m going to have to research more of Pinborough‘s work and see what else I can read! 10/10
‘This year‘s must-read thriller‘
Anybody read this?
Love a thriller! Let‘s hope it lives up to critical opinion!
'New name. New family. Shiny. New. Me'
Came home from work poorly today. So my housemate Luke gifted me with a new book. He is the best.

pickI applied for a job yesterday 🤞🏻This was given to me by my mentor during training ☺️ June 2014! It's always good to look back every now and again to see how far you have come! Happy Monday, Littens!

I haven't posted for about a month! Got caught up in work!
Weekend plans:
- Get back to reading
- Buy fresh flowers
- Drink good coffee
- Go for a walk
Although #thehappinessplanner is not a 'read' as such, it is full of mindfulness quotations and mantras. Excellent way to start the day. Hope you have a good day, Littens ☺️x
pickTrue 😂😂
Predecessor of Jack the Ripper meets Woman in Black with this one!
I have just got in from watching this film at the cinema - I enjoyed it. It was different than I expected. Maybe I shall try to give the book a go!
pickOh my life. This was a page-turner. It would make a great film. I don't want to give too much away but I had the same reaction to this as I did with Gone Girl- it's brilliant.
10/10.
Loved it.
I had so much planned to do today and I have been reading since 9am! Best get on with lesson planning now!
So true. #bookworm #booklover #drinktea #idratherread
Question:
Where is your favourite place to read and why?
:) x
pickStarted at about 3am last night. Granted it wasn't a clever choice at that time of night but it has gripped me right from the get-go.

'Sometimes you have to revisit the past to truly move forwards'
Picked this up in Sainsbury's today. Slightly different from my crime thrillers. Sometimes it's refreshing to indulge in a girly chick-flick and loose yourself to romance, cupcakes and family secrets!
I will update with a post soon!
Happy Tuesday Littens! For those of you who are teachers the threat of school looms! Enjoy every last moment of having the freedom to read! 😂 #endofsummer #resultsdaythisweek #teacherlife #goodbyereadingalldayeveryday!
'That say trouble always comes in threes'
Had a break from my Moriarty-binge and now I'm ready for some serious 'oh Lordy!' - drama that is packed into one crucial moment in time! Love the way that she crafts these narratives.
Mind you- she will have to work to impress me after Big Little Lies, Truly Madly Guilty and The Husband's Secret! #lianemoriarty #wishes #sisters #drama #relationships #crucialmoments #hiddenagendas #secrecy
Had the luxury of an early morning read with a coffee 💓This book was slightly slow to start but it has soon fired up! I cannot put it down! ...the flowers are purely decorative but why not! 🌸🌸 #paulahawkins #intothewater #crimethriller #witchcraft #unreliablenarratorsarethebest
'Nel Abbott is dead' she said.
'They found her in the water. She jumped.'
Just about to start reading- let's hope it is as good a read as The Girl on the Train #wine #paulahawkins
Just about to start! Happy Sunday!

'Questions tumbled around and around, and as I held my wife, I, Russell Green, had answers to none of them'
Sat in my fave chair in my fave coffee shop and lived my bookworm dream today. After weeks of not having the time or energy to dedicate to reading I did it in style today.
pickA random event can alter the course of your life. Love the ideas surrounding this book. Bravo, McEwan, Bravo.
