#ShyCreatures

I feel like I’m shouting into the void every time I post about a review, but here goes nothing again!

I loved #HeyZoey and I really think so many of you would too..

I cannot tell you how much I LOVED #SharkHeart and how I hope so many of you will read it so we can discuss it!

(Also that cover is perfect!)!

When you realise that your dog and your jumper matches your next read, it can only be a good thing!

#Mouthing by Orla Mackey is out from #HamishHamilton Penguin Books UK tomorrow, and I’ve heard so many brilliant things about it already!

Thank you Hermione Thompson for my copy.

New week, new read, and #HeyZoey by Sarah Crossan is nothing like I was expecting, but in the best way.

Let’s just say that Dolores finding her husband’s animatronic sex doll is only one tiny part of this novel!

Thank you so much to Amy Donegan for my fabulous finished copy.

This is little Solo. I gave her that name as she was tossed into the jungle all alone in the middle of Thailand.

She was covered in fleas, starving and had no mother. Someone spotted her in a hedge and asked if I’d take her.

Today was the greatest day of her life (1/7) 🧵

Bank Holiday going very nicely thank you for asking.

For anyone who loves reading about motherhood, marriage and art, I really recommend #Splinters by Leslie Jamison because it’s brilliant quite frankly.

Thank you to Buckinghamshire Libraries for sourcing my copy.

What’s happening?

Just this (and lots of torrential rain showers!)!

Just finished and completely loved #TwoHours by Alba Arikha from ERIS

A thought provoking and compelling story of first love, marriage, parenthood and families told with such beautiful prose and not a word is wasted.

Thank you again Helen Cullen for the recommendation.
