Happy Christmas to the lovely person who left their trolley to roll into the back of my car in the supermarket car park this morning... I hope you forgot the most important ingredient you went shopping for and when you go back the queues are horrendous 😂

This year has been hit and miss for reading with two close family bereavements but I'm back and can't wait to share more book content with you all 🌟 This is what I'm reading (and thoroughly enjoying) at the moment. Any recommendations for a good festive read?🎄

Thanks to everyone who suggested I read The Tenant next - a great psychological thriller with a couple of HUGE twists, I really enjoyed it and look at those sprayed edges 👀 ⭐⭐⭐⭐

I enjoyed this fast paced thriller on my recent holiday - when a surgeon is forced to attempt to kill a high profile politician on the operating table you know you're in for a wild ride!

If you want to experience time travel put a load of washing on...
I'm running a 30 minute 'quick wash' cycle:
20 minutes ago it had 7 minutes left...
10 mins ago it had gone up to 8 minutes...
and now it's at 10 minutes 🤯
Make it make sense!!

I can't praise Laura's writing highly enough, I'm always recommending her books to everyone that enjoys a gothic ghost story that has a realistic explanation behind the supernatural goings on!
