Sorting out ALL my books and I have the book bruises to prove it. Postman came - he heard a pile of books fall as I was at door. " Not sure you have too many yet?" he quipped. (Everyone's a comedian! ) Irony was, he had two more in his hands!

I am NEARLY finished checking and logging all my books. Bookshops how do you do stocktakes? I have a fraction of the numbers you have but OMG my home is book carnage right now

ALL OF THIS!! 'This novel is so moving and congrats to the translator as this reads very well – it’s real, emotional and that sense of anger, of confusion, of wanting to do anything to keep someone alive in any way possible, is just heartbreaking.' #DoubleRoom @annesenes.bsky.social #AliceBanks

WOW! 'This is a heart-warming and moving novel about grief and how we respond to it and deal with it. When a man’s wife dies, he fixes an AI tube imbued with her voice. Having lost loved ones myself, quite recently, this got me thinking. But it also horrified me as I could only see this as torment'

With love to @panmacmillan.bsky.social for sending Nightshade. Flicked through it and the line that caught my eye... " I am not here to fool around with criminally attractive men." I may just recover from my Joel Dicker trauma with this one...haha

I have now finished The Alaska Sanders Affair by #JoelDicker. Or did it finish me? All I know is that I am now lying down in a dark room and may never get back up. Totally worth it though. @quercusbooks.bsky.social

Currently being traumatised by the twists in the excellent The Alaska Sanders Affair by #JoelDicker . Marcus what are up to? And Perry? Oh oh... Off to the Dicker Zoo next but goodness knows what that is going to reveal haha @quercusbooks.bsky.social
