This is why I love local bookshops!! Husband and I asked Chicken & Frog to put together a big bundle of books for our son’s nursery as it’s his last day tomorrow before he starts school. I can’t think of a better way to say thank you for looking after our little boy!

Martin's #FridayReads is IN A LONELY PLACE by Dorothy B. Hughes, a dark, atmospheric crime novel. Hughes’ focus is on the mindset of her protagonist, the washed-up ex-pilot Dix Steele, a deeply damaged & vulnerable man tormented by events from his past. uk.bookshop.org/a/1482/9780141…

Wendy's #FridayReads is THE COAST ROAD by Alan Murrin. County Donegal is slow to forgive Colette for past transgressions in this brilliantly observed novel about a closed community and the limits placed on women’s lives. Atmospheric & beautifully written. uk.bookshop.org/a/565/97815266…
