Book Reviews
I may not always post my book reviews to this blog but they will always be on ReadandRated or you can visit me at Good Reads.
One thing I promise, is that I’ll only ever say I love a book if I truly do.
The Reader – ‘The opening scenes tainted the book for me’
A Casual Vacancy – ‘Overall a good, if bitter-sweet, read’
Lasting Damage – ‘For me, this was Sophie Hannah back on form’
Halfhead – ‘Brilliant’
A Room Swept White – ‘Brave subject, could have been brilliant, but wasn’t’
Moonlight Mile – ‘Great characterisation, a little stereotypical maybe but I liked it all the same’
Cold Kill – ‘Well woven storyline with lots of bits and pieces to keep you guessing’
Notting Hell – ‘I’d hate to live there!’
Birthdays for the Dead – ‘quite frankly kicks butt!’
