Today I’m sharing my review of Paradise Girl by Phill Featherstone, published by Troubadour in January 2017; you might remember reading the excellent guest post Phill wrote for Being Anne in May, and you can read it again here.  Young adult, dystopian… now that really doesn’t sound like one for me, does it?

I never quite got round to reading one of Patricia Dixon’s books when they focused on French countryside life – the naughty dogs, difficult in-laws and sweltering summers. Her latest, Over My Shoulder, published in May 2017 and available for kindle and in paperback, is something very, very different – and maybe not my usual kind… Read More »
