Book Review 18 2025 Welcome To Cooper by @TariqAshkanani No wonder this won the McIlvanney prize! 5* read from me! #ReadingCommunity #bookreview So… this is not a comfortable read - not by a long chalk. However, it is really, compelling & will stay with me for a long time.

Book Review 14 2025 8 Months Left James Patterson & Mike Lupica A decent read with plenty of action & good to highlight people living with cancer. Lots of adrenalin. I had expected more legal drama than there was and the abrupt ending caught me off guard. Still an enjoyable read!

What a brilliant atmosphere at #stockportnoir Fabulous panels, engaged audience, lovely to catch up with friends and meet new ones. Such a happy inclusive atmosphere. Thanks to Chris McDonald and Serenity books for organising. Can't wait for next year.

Book review 13 and my first read of February 2025 is Open Season by Jonathan Kellerman and a thoroughly enjoyable read it was. I've dipped in and out of this series for years now and rarely (if ever) been disappointed. 4 * from me

Book Review 12 and my last read of January Hijab Butch Blues a memoir by Lamya H I absolutely adored this memoir and think it will be so affirming for queer people from non affirming families and especially for Muslim LGBTQI+ folk. Absolutely loved it 5*

Last night we went to see Bhaji on the Beach part of #Bradford2025 it was fantastic. Shaheen Khan's intro was full of sisterhood & hope. Of course I was delighted to chat with her afterwards(& snag a photo). She is the narrator of my Bradford set Nikki Parekh books.

Off to Picurevile to see Bhaji on the Beach as part of #bradfordcityofculture2025 . Tribute to Northern powerhouse women. Can you believe it was first shown in 1993?
