My sweet boy. Sometimes I get very lonely, but Edward makes all things better. His quiet companionship has reduced so much stress over the past three years since we rescued him, and his mellow, playful nature is a blessing. #cats are so special. Show me pictures of yours. #lovecats

A beautiful day out there today, I’d suggest it’d be even more beautiful if you bought a book to go with it. - Michael

If you have a favorite author, tell me here. It’s hard to say just one name as there are so many. Mine is trad author Jeneva Rose, because I love the way she’s unapologetically Jeneva. Everything is genuine and fun. Oh, and she writes brilliantly too! Which indie authors do you recommend?

First book of the day is one of my favourite books I've read this year, "Everyone On This Train Is A Suspect". It's that rare thing of being a sequel that might be even better than the (already excellent) first one... - Michael

A method actor. A deadly affair. Who is playing whom? This high-stakes game of cat and mouse is perfect for fans of Jeneva Rose, Alice Feeney and Kiersten Modglin. Dual POV - Wife and husband. a.co/d/5n5fREa #thrillerbooks #clairestibbe #plottwists #books

Went into town. Stood like a gom outside various bookshops because THAT IS MY BOOK. Was recognised in @hodgesfiggis.bsky.social by a reader while looking for *my own book* which is a new level of cringe but also so nice to get to talk to someone who has read The Secret Room in real life.

If you enjoyed #Conclave consider giving The Vatican Conspiracy a read. The book explores many of the same issues, within the taut confines of a fast paced thriller. #Booksky #books #Vatican #VaticanCity #conclavemovie a.co/d/i5OiHNI

The relief! My editor loves the second Estella novel! "It's a thrilling, dark, fascinating and utterly compelling read and I am so excited about bringing it to readers. As with Revenge, I think it will be adored both by fans of GE and Dickens, and those who have never read him."

When a hit British crime series about a notorious surgeon and secret serial killer takes a dark turn into real-life murder, a celebrity's wife begins to question whether her method actor husband can portray a killer on screen without becoming one off-screen. a.co/d/fwCF04W #thrillerbooks

I wish I could drop my body off at the gym and pick it up later... Actually, I love walking. If I had a dog, I’d walk more. Here's a view of the Wasatch Front. One of my favourite walks and one I do most weekends with my son. #walking #healthylifestyle #booksky
