    By Rosie Clarke

    Next instalment of the series based around women living in London's East End during World War 2. This one included a bit of drama with rape, murder, break ins and loss.

  • A wedding at Mulberry Lane.

    By Rosie Clarke
    4 stars

    Book 2 of the series. Well written and I found myself becoming quite invested in the loves of the characters.

  • The girls of Mulberry Lane

    By Rosie Clarke
    4 stars

    Nice easy read based on a group of women living in the East End of London during World War 2.

  • Great Big Beautiful Life

    By Emily Henry
    4 stars

    I enjoyed this one. A very easy read, but a couple of unexpected twists.

  • The Bad Bridesmaid

    By Rachael John
    3 stars

    Very light romantic comedy. Very easy to read (I read it in a couple of hours). Nice story, but a little predictable.

  • Leading Professional Conversations: Adaptive expertise for schools

    By Helen Timperley
    4 stars

    A book I had to read for my study, but very worthwhile. An easy read with lots of practical ideas. It really made me analyse my own practice and identify changes I want to make in the future.

  • The Wedding People

    By Alison Espach
    3 stars

    An okay piece of fluff. Good for holidays as I didn't have to concentrate too hard on it.

  • The Ballymara Road

    By Nadine Dorries
    4 stars

    A lovely conclusion to the Four Streets series. The underlying themes of a corrupt church, pedophile ring and poverty were quite confronting throughout the whole series, but the connection between the main characters and the support of each other was really touching. The neighbourhood cat bringing home the dead priests 'langer' had me giggling for days! Pleased I finally finished the series.

  • How to escape from prison

    By Dr Paul Wood
    5 stars

    Wow, I couldn't put it down. My housework didn't get done! The stories from his journey to and in prison were pretty confronting.

  • Atlas: The story of Pa Salt

    By Lucinda Riley and Harry Whittaker
    3 stars

    A nice conclusion to the series, and it fills in a few blanks. The writing wasn't as good as the previous books, but an easy read to start the holidays.

  • Be Slacker Better

    By Steve Zonnevylle
    4 stars

    A really easy read. Key themes: just focus on what's important and remember, no matter how rocky the bath water may get, the rubber ducks never completely sink!

  • The Missing Sister

    By Lucinda Riley
    4 stars

    Nice easy read with a couple of hidden twists that kept me interested. Looking forward to reading the final book in the series now.
