Synopsis (as taken from the Amazon Kindle Store is as follows: London, 1849 Charles Dickens has set up Urania Cottage as a sanctuary for fallen women. But he is shocked…

63. Illusion by Stephanie Elmas
I found this on Kindle under the ‘recommended for you’ tab. I had to take the picture under my desk at work (the only place I could picture it without getting a reflection on the screen.) Illusion became a hidden gem for me, a story I wouldn’t have read otherwise and I’m so glad I…

59. Mrs Hudson and the Lazarus Testament (Holmes & Hudson Mystery Book 3) by Martin Davies

57. Real Murders (Aurora Teagarden Mysteries) by Charlaine Harris
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…
