All the Light We Cannot See - Anthony Doer
Really enjoyed this one. Was a slow read for some reason, but not because I didn't enjoy it.
The Dress Maker - Rosalie Ham
Audio book - glad I didn't read this in paperbook. Didn't really enjoy it at all.
The Last Days of Rabbit Hayes - Anna McPartlin
Stuart's Christmas gift book to me. I was dreading it but it was really good. I thoroughly enjoyed it considering the sad subject matter.
The Light In the Ruins - Chris Bohjalian
Audiobook - quite enjoyed this one. Second of his I have listened too.
Violent Exposure - Katherine Howell
Audiobook - wasn't too bad for a crime one. Even set in Aussie. Quite enjoyed it though.
Random Act of Kindness - Lisa Verge Higgins
Audiobook - enjoyed this one. It was slow to start but quite enjoyed it in the end.
The Great Christmas Knit Off - Alexandra Brown
Ok story. Not a huge story line, was lacking a little. But a quick enjoyable read in the end.
The Burgess Boys - Elizabeth Strout
Audiobook - This seemed to go on for an age. Slow going & wondered the point of it really but got there in the end. Wouldn't have bothered in paperback though.
The Book of Lost Threads - Tess Evans
Really enjoyed this. Has been on the shelf for a few years I reckon. It finally got read. Went quickly as I was enjoying it so much.
The Beekeeper's Secret - Josephine Moon
Liked this a lot. A really enjoyable story. Second book of hers I have read. Both great.
That Gallagher Girl - Kate Thompson
This was OK. A follow up to one I had previously. Enjoyed that one better.
Major Pettigrew's Last Stand - Helen Simonson
This was a let down. It wasn't awful but didn't capture me in anyway. Was a struggle to finish it but I did.
The Girl On The Train - Paula Hawkins
Picked this up cheaply in a bookshop. Wasn't a bad story & I got through it quickly. Been a while since I have read a thriller. Looking forward to seeing the movie sometime in the next couple of years!
True Colours - Kristin Hannah
Enjoyed this one. Quite a good family drama.
The Adventures of the Wishing-Chair - Enid Blyton
Read this one, a chapter a night to DJ. Thoroughly enjoyed it. I read these as a child myself so to read again from an adult perspective was fun. One of the pictures I remember so very clearly too. I like how these are written. Straight to the point really. A chapter in roughly 8 pages & it is enough to bring out the magic & adventure. She is an incredible author.
The Nightingale - Kristin Hannah
Really liked this one. Based on WW2 was really interesting though horrible too. But a good read.
The Difference a Day Can Make - Carole Matthews
Wasn't bad. Another mindless read but not too awful, though a bit predictable too.
Class - Jenny Colgan
Ok read. Really mindless & simple which was great at the time.
Delicious! - Ruth Reichl
Loved this. I thoroughly enjoyed it. So much. Can't explain why, just was so nice, lovely, easy to read, but really drew me in too.
The Beach Cafe - Lucy Diamond
Nice story, although predictable too. Good holiday read, & enjoyed it over all.
The Christmas Tea Shop & Bakery - De-Ann Black
Just a light read for travel on the tablet. Was Ok, certainly nothing to get excited over. But helped fill in time. More of a novella.
