I have had this in my Kindle library since 2015. I read all of the Sookie Stackhouse series and was in the mood to devour all of Charlaine Harris’s other book series. I then promptly forgot about my Kindle Library and the book was left dormant for four years! Synopsis (as taken from Amazon Kindle…

56. As the Crow Flies (DI Nick Dixon Crime Book 1) by Damien Boyd
This was the first book I read after rediscovering my kindle app. I had a kindle from 2013-2015 because I had no more room on my shelves. I didn’t take to it as well as I thought, I definitely prefer a real book, however, I enjoy reading and discovering hidden gems on the app. I…
55. Mrs Hudson and the Spirits’ Curse by Martin Davies
I bought this near the beginning of the year on bookpeople. There was something about the blurbs that really interested me. I thought it to be a fairly original idea and had always thought of Mrs Hudson as more than a dotty housekeeper. I was not disappointed. Synopsis (as taken from the back of the…
54. The Closest Thing to Flying by Gill Lewis
Sorry for the break in posting, I was reading so much and forgot that I hadn’t put up reviews on what I had read! I picked this up in Waterstones when I bought ‘A Girl Called Justice’ by Elly Griffiths. Synopsis (as taken from Amazon) is as follows: Present day: Semira doesn’t know where to…
Weekend Catch Up
I have been totally neglectful in writing my weekend catch ups of late. I haven’t even got a funky book quote to start this one – shows how behind I am. Both home life and work life have been incredibly busy of late and though I have neglected this blog for a bit, I have…
53. The 1,000 Year Old Boy by Ross Welford
This was another book I bought with a birthday book voucher. I had first discovered this book when it popped up on Amazon and thought that the premise sounded very interesting. I couldn’t wait to get a hold of it to read. Synopsis (as taken from Amazon) is as follows: There are stories about people…
52. A Girl Called Justice by Elly Griffiths
I have been most excited to read this since I first heard it was coming out. I absolutely adore Elly Griffiths and couldn’t wait to see how her writing would change in the form of a children’s book. I bought this on Saturday (11th May) and read it on the Sunday morning. Synopsis (as taken…
51. The Boy Who Flew by Fleur Hitchcock
This is another book I got for myself with a birthday voucher. I have been impatiently waiting to read it. This weekend I had one of the most vile migraines caused by the low air pressure and by Sunday had all but given up in terms of it going away, so I read a couple…
Halfway Celebration
Get excited everyone!!! I have now reached my halfway goal for reading this year! My target goal is to read 100 books this year and I have just hit my 50th book! Gosh, I almost can’t believe it, I feel so smug and elated. I should really buy some more books to celebrate but actually…
50. Shadowscent: The Darkest Bloom by P.M. Freestone
Over the weekend I convinced my friend to let me into a bookstore. I was given strict instructions to only buy two books and was marched out as soon as I’d bought the two books. This was one of the two books I purchased and I have to admit that I finished reading this the…
