It was so lovely to read that Helen Rolfe had signed a contract with Orion Publishing, with a series on its way – starting with a free short story, followed by four novellas throughout 2018, with the entire series to be published as a paperback and ebook by the end of the year. I’ve featured… Read More »
Oh, I do like the look of this one… no reading time again, but one I’d love to catch up with later. Scandal by Sasha Morgan was published by Aria Fiction on 1st February, and I love its description as “a sexy, scandalous page turner”… As the new custodian of the ancestral home, Treweham Hall,… Read More »
If I’ve been stepping outside my comfort zone a little recently, today I’ve carried on walking and found myself in a totally unfamiliar place – and unexpectedly found I rather liked it there. I’m reviewing Ravens Gathering by Graeme Cumming, published for kindle back in 2012, and in paperback by Matador in February 2017. I’ve… Read More »
It was a real pleasure to welcome author Elizabeth Ducie as my guest here on Being Anne way back in November 2016 – you can catch up on our conversation here. My life rocked on its foundations a little after that – and I never did manage to read and review either Gorgito’s Ice Rink or… Read More »
I always feel I should apologise when I share a review for a second time – but no, I’m not going to this time! I loved Tell Me No Secrets by Lynda Stacey when it was published as an e-book, and I’m really delighted that it’s being published in paperback today by those lovely people at… Read More »
I’ve always been a bit of a fan of a good saga, and The Runaway Wife by Rosie Clarke – published on 1st February by Aria – certainly looks like one I should be adding to my wish list. I’m delighted to join the blog tour today – doesn’t this look good? Love, marriage, obsession, betrayal… Read More »
You might just remember my excitement at discovering Adrienne Vaughan’s gorgeous writing last year, when I read and reviewed The Hollow Heart, the first of her Heartfelt three book series (read the review here). Well that pales into insignificance compared with the excitement of having the privilege of being an early reader of an e-copy… Read More »
I do find (just sometimes!) that one of the frustrations of being a book blogger and reviewer is the impossibility of reading every book you really, really want to. I first discovered Stephanie Butland’s exquisite writing many moons ago – back in April 2014, with Surrounded By Water (you’ll find my review here), which was… Read More »
I’m really delighted today to be sharing my review of Different Genes by Claire Baldry, published by Matador, and available for kindle and in paperback. My thanks to Emily at Troubadour Publishing for the e-copy she provided for my review. Claire really has really become quite a celebrity recently – you might have read my… Read More »
I missed out on Rachel Burton’s first book, The Many Colours of Us – and really kicked myself when I started to see the fantastic reviews and endorsements. So I’m not making the same mistake again – The Things We Need To Say is published on 11th May by HQ Digital (available for pre-order), and… Read More »
I do sometimes wish I could read several books a day – because here’s another I would have loved to add to my reading list. Court of Lions by Jane Johnson was published by Head of Zeus in hardback and for kindle in July last year, and in paperback on 11th January. I very much… Read More »
I’m delighted to be back with you today – all now well again, thank you – to bring you news of a book that’s really got me rather excited. As soon as I heard about The Letter by Ruth Saberton – now available for kindle and in paperback – I knew it was one I… Read More »
