One of the best unreliable narrator novels I have read in a while. Click by L. Smyth was just that bit different to everything else I have read so far this year. I love the crime/thriller/psychological drama genre (whatever it is called) - but it can get repetitive. Or more precisely if you read too... Continue Reading →
I enjoyed it. I really enjoyed it. It’s the type of contemporary romance/drama that I am enjoying far more these days than the light and fluffy reads. It had substance.

I love the idea behind the collection of stories - 7 in total. A series of fairy tales about women who do not need to be rescued in the too often typical manner of a knight on a shining white horse. Pro-women fairy tales. The whole collection was good. And as an adult, I thought... Continue Reading →
I want to be blogging… I would rather be writing… I could be reading… BUT When I get an afternoon or day alone with no other immediate commitments, I end up stuck in what often feels like an endless cycle of daily drudgery. Washing, cooking, laundry, changing beds, dusting, hovering, picking up mine and everyone’s... Continue Reading →
