Greenteeth included everything I enjoy in a fantasy story - a great setting, mythology, the fae, a quest, and an endearing group of central characters. 💙📚 #BookSky #AmReading

Book Review: The Cruel Dark (The Cruel Dark #1) by Bea Northwick #BookSky 💙📚 pagesandteablog.wordpress.com/2025/07/22/b...

The third book in the Three Dahlias series sees our mystery-solving trio take on something slightly different as they become involved in a cold case, but it isn't long before another murder takes place, giving the Dahlias another piece of the puzzle... 💙📚 #BookSky #AmReading

Book Review: Maude Horton's Glorious Revenge by Lizzie Pook #BookSky 💙📚 pagesandteablog.wordpress.com/2025/07/17/b...

Enchantra was another enjoyable book in the Wicked Games series. A murderous game, a family of characters forced to play against each other, and Genevieve arrives with no idea what's she getting into, but takes to the game quickly. #AmReading #BookSky 💙📚

Book Review: Death in the Clouds (Hercule Poirot #12) by Agatha Christie #BookSky 💙📚 pagesandteablog.wordpress.com/2025/07/08/b...

Gothic, ghostly, action-packed and romantic, Phantasma was really enjoyable and I can't wait to continue on to Enchantra... #BookSky #AmReading 💙📚

‘Useful phrases for the murder mystery writer abroad’ (my cartoon for this week’s Guardian Books)

Good Bad Girl was puzzling at first, with several threads but no indication as to how the characters were linked, if they were at all. All became clear as I read on, which made it a real page-turner 💙📚 #BookSky #AmReading

A Quiet Life in the Country is the first in a series of mysteries featuring Lady Hardcastle and her maid/friend Flo. I enjoyed meeting these characters and following their adventure as they attempt to solve a number of crimes... #AmReading #BookSky 💙📚

Here's a word I don't think I've come across before: Spindrift • \SPIN-drift\ • noun: sea spray; especially : spray blown from waves during a gale Noticed whilst reading Maude Horton's Glorious Revenge by Lizzie Pook. 💙📚 #BookSky #AmReading

Today is #WorldBeeDay so we made a bee out of books and now we're buzzing. 🐝

Apparently my detective skills aren't improving at all - I was completely taken in by one of the red herrings in Death in the Clouds! Better leave the mystery solving to Poirot, I think... #BookSky #AmReading 💙📚

So ends my first foray into Cowboy Romance. I've finished the Chestnut Springs series by Elsie Silver. I don't think I've ever binged a whole series back to back before so that was a new experience. I'm going to read something different next, possibly another Poirot book, but next time I want 💙📚

Book Review: The Tainted Cup (Shadow of the Leviathan #1) by Robert Jackson Bennett. This was a 5 🌟 fantasy murder mystery that I couldn't put down. I'm already looking forward to reading the next book in the series. #AmReading #Booksky 💙📚 pagesandteablog.wordpress.com/2025/05/13/b...

It's time to begin the last book in the Chestnut Springs series. Can't remember the last time I read an entire series back to back and I'm going to miss this world and these characters... 💙📚 #BookSky #AmReading

Powerless is the 3rd Chestnut Springs book and I think I may have found a new favourite. I enjoyed Jasper and Sloane's story so much. And I still can't seem to stop reading these so on onto Reckless I go... #BookSky #AmReading 💙📚

There's a new review up on my blog today - The Magpie Murders, the first in the Susan Ryeland series by Anthony Horowitz. I really enjoyed this mystery within a mystery and look forward to reading the rest of the series... #BookSky #AmReading 💙📚 pagesandteablog.wordpress.com/2025/05/02/b...

I didn't enjoy Heartless quite as much as Flawless but I'm still enjoying the Chestnut Springs series by Elsie Silver enough to want to move straight on to Powerless. Will I end up binge-reading the entire series back-to-back? It's still looking possible. 💙📚 #BookSky #AmReading
