  • The Bookshop Detectives Dead Girl Gone

    By Gareth Ward and Louise Ward
    3 stars

    An amusing read with a clever storyline. A bit cheesy, especially for me being a Brit in New Zealand, but quite fun to recognise places and expressions from both countries. A good way to pass the time but I won’t be seeking out the rest of the series.

  • The Last Love Song

    By Lucinda Riley
    4 stars

    Another engaging read from Lucinda Riley. The storyline is good with Lucinda Riley’s trademark mentions of real people from the period. A little stilted and clumsy in places but an enjoyable read.

  • Forever, Interrupted

    By Taylor Jenkins Reid
    4 stars

    A rollercoaster of a book where you are swung between Elsie and Ben's whirlwind romance, and Elsie's grief following his sudden death. I'm not sure if I was emotionally stable enough for it right now! It was a great book - I think I wanted a happy ending!

  • Carrie Soto is Back

    By Taylor Jenkins Reid
    5 stars

    I absolutely loved this book. I’m not even that interested in tennis but got swept away with the story. Carrie is so relatable and you find yourself rooting for her. A classic TJR.

  • The Little Italian Hotel

    By Phaedra Patrick
    3 stars

    I read this on recommendation from the book group I’m part of on fb. It was not great. A bit fluffy for me. The characters weren’t that well developed and it was all a bit predictable and feel good. Not for me but an easy holiday read.

  • The Secret Keeper

    By Kate Morton
    4 stars

    The story of a young girl who witnesses a murder, and her quest, in adulthood, to find discover the reason behind it. I enjoyed this book, but find that Kate Morton books take me a long time to read. I don't know if I'd call it detailed, or maybe she just takes a while to get to the point! I liked the twist at the end - it helped everything to make sense!
