Well thank you! And if you like that sort of thing you should give it a go, it’s decent so far (I’m about 40%)
I might give it a go. I do like a thriller I just havent read many this year!
I enjoyed the first 2 and have the 3rd on my TBR pile.Not sure who recommended The Santa Killer but I’ve been reading it and enjoying it
If anyone can recommend more good festive thrillers, please send the details my way

quoting myself. Solid 4* read and I was right but still enjoyed it.
I listened to the audiobook but only until 45 % of it. It started interesting but than it dragged on and on ... and Grace (her name is Grace, right?) is not likeable (should she even be likeable? Is there a rule that the protagonist has to be likeable?). The idea is good (or at least not bad and it's different from other books) but the book itself ... no.
Finished Dinner Party: A Tragedy by Sarah Gilmartin this morning and loved it. Anyone who enjoys reading about family dynamics might similarly appreciate it. Also lots of grief and some eating disorder stuff with which i can relate so perhaps it was just the right book at the right time for me.
I'm awful with signed books as I dont want to damage them so have to get the kindle version aswell.Och nothing at all. I've been told my face is like an open book so I don't want to look too flustered. I admire anyone who can keep their cool when reading some good smut in public
Bookwise, do both! I started buying signed hardbacks to encourage me to keep some books after reading them. But usually end up buying a Kindle copy. Especially if they are 99p
I read this earlier in the year and found it such a slog
I read it really quickly, really enjoyed it!
I read it in 24 hrs! I missed it when it was overI read this earlier in the year and found it such a slog
It’s funny how two people can have such different experiences. But I really related with the main character. This might be Sorrow and Bliss all over againThe great Sorrow and Bliss debacle of 2022.
How funny. I love how we can have such different experiences reading the same thing. For me it took me weeks and I was contemplating DNF which I never doI read it in 24 hrs! I missed it when it was over
Im trying to get better at allowing myself to abandon a book that I’m just not enjoying. But the guilt of it is something else!
I do find I can do it after the first page or two easily enough, but once I’m a full chapter in I feel I must finish it, even if I’m hate-reading every word
I have a couple on my kindle that I abandoned halfway through and they honestly still haunt me. It’s a total waste of time and energy. There’s no point whatsoever. But I still hate not finishing what I start!

I listened to the hunger games on there a while ago just for background noise while working as I have read it before. And it was a nuisance as it didn't remember your place like audible does. So hopefully they have improved thatSpotify offering audiobooks now
