I've just finished binging The Newsreader series 3 on the BBC iPlayer and I cheered. It ends on the fall of the Berlin Wall which is doubly emotional for me but I just love Helen and Dale - so flawed and so human. Best character is of course powerhouse Noellene. 😍

Yes! @netgalley.bsky.social delivered! 🚂❄️ Thank you to @themillyjohnson.bsky.social and @simonschusteruk.bsky.social ! #booksky 💙📚

I just finished @jennikeer.bsky.social's The Peculiar Incident at Thistlewick House and I'm blown away. If you loved The Ravenswood Witch, you will love this! Out 11 October. Here's my review: app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/8566... #booksky 💙💃🏼

Happy Publication Day to @samanthadowning.bsky.social! Too Old For This is a wickedly good fun five star read! #booksky 💙📚 Read my review here: app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/2754...

@fliceverett.bsky.social Happy Birthday! Just found this on NetGalley! #booksky 💙📚

Just received a widget for the new Phillipa Ashley through NetGalley! Thanks @penguinrandomhouse.bsky.social ! #booksky 💙📚

I ended up in floods of tears. The ending nearly broke me. What a beautiful story. Highly recommended! #booksky 💙📚 app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/f5b1...

Argh, NetGalley is down. #booksky 💙📚

This is on Amazon First Reads for August and having read it on NetGalley already, I'd say it is a very good choice if you're still undecided on which book to select. I loved it! #booksky 💙📚

Yay, I got the new @laurapauthor.bsky.social Laura Pearson from NetGalley ! 💃🏼 #booksky 💙📚

It took four weeks but I finally got approved for the latest @heidiswain.bsky.social from @simonschusteruk.bsky.social via @netgalley.bsky.social! Woo!

THAT WAS AWESOME!!! ⚽

I'm legit! What a palaver.

80s music really is THE BEST. #LiveAid

I just received a widget for Phaedra Patrick's new book and I'm made up. Look at the gorgeous cover! 😁 #booksky 💙📚

I've slept all of 4 hours, I'm HOT and I'm CRANKY. 🥵😡

It's bad enough that My5 makes me press Force Stop after every episode because it becomes unresponsive, it really should have a way of indicating which episodes I've watched already. I was just half way through an episode of A&E: After Dark before I noticed I've seen it already!

I don't normally quote anything from TwiX but... 🤣🤣🤣

I'm on the fourth shower of today and nearly missed this light show over Greenwich!

Happy Publication Day to this beautiful book! #booksky 💙📚

Top tip of the day: I can absolutely recommend a day trip to a hospital like St Thomas in Westminster as they have AIRCON, plus the MRI scanner is positively freezing. Have a cold drink and chillax in their coffee shop, just don't get admitted to a ward, they are boiling even at lesser temperatures.

Yes! Just got this beauty from NetGalley UK! 💃🏼 It's fabulous @rebeccaraisin.bsky.social but even if it wasn't, look at that divine cover! Can't wait to dive in. 😁 #booksky 💙📚

Would you like to win a summery Cornish care package? My latest novel ("a captivating tale" - HEAT), Cornish tea, honey and Parmesan thins. Just repost this and I'll put you in the draw! Ends Sunday 22 June, then I'll draw the winner. (UK only, sorry!) #Cornwall #books 💙📚

Happy Publication Day to @lisatimoneywrites.bsky.social ! #booksky 💙📚

Just received a NetGalley widget for this new serial killer ARC from @harpercollins.bsky.social. Thank you, very much intrigued!

I've just blocked a German author who admits in her bio that she loves to play with AI to create her covers. That is an automatic block. Don't do that, you're hurting your own industry. Disgusting.

Let’s hear it for all the really big, important men in power!

Menopause? It's probably all in your head.

WHAT? #DoctorWho

Would you pay this? I'm not expecting anything.

Happy Publication Day ! #booksky 💙📚

Joanna Lumley's Danube is a lovely programme and she should be commended for her use of German but someone should have told her that Vollpension does not translate as "full pension" but as "full board"!

Happy Publication Day to the talented Sarah Morgan and @hqstories.bsky.social. A Secret Escape is a heartwarming and uplifting ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ read! Read my review here: app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/db65... #booksky 💙📚

Every song from the Intergalactic Song Contest in Doctor Who was miles better than Eurovision, even the song titled "My Big Feet". I feel robbed that we didn't have that Song Contest in full. 🤨

United Kingdom 👎🏼 #Eurovision

Today's episode of Doctor Who, which is on the BBC iPlayer already, is an absolute MASTERPIECE. Camp Song Contest fun, Rylan, danger, the doctor getting angry, mavity, Graham Norton as a hologram, a serious political message, and Mrs Flood is a baddie. My mouth fell open at the end. Captivating! 🤯

Room 21 by Jessica Huntley is a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ read. Read my review here: app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/e82f... #booksky 💙📚 Out 27 May.

The Woman Who Got Her Spark Back by Fiona Gibson is a ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ read! Read my review here: app.thestorygraph.com/reviews/c134... #booksky 💙📚

The new Sarah J. Harris ist Read Now on NetGalley UK! #booksky 💙📚

Why do publishers do this to ARC readers? 😡 I want to throw the book in the bin but unfortunately my Kindle is attached to it. Sort your formatting out, this is barely readable! 🤬 #booksky 💙📚

Dear @vintagebooks.bsky.social thanks for approving me for Island Calling on NetGalley but it's the second book in the series and I haven't read the first so pretty please can you also approve me for Welcome to Glorious Tuga?

Me Vs Perimenopause
