I loved The Secret of Strangers, it was in my top 5 last year
Malibu Rising was the biggest load of pap imho. Evelyn Hugo slightly better.

That is an impressive haul. And makes me feel like my addiction isn't so badMy addiction is back in full forcejust ordered another 11 books including the housemaid and the secret of strangers. So that's 29 books in total I've bought this month now I need to find the time to read them all
Freida McFadden, it’s on KU if you have thatGot a £15 voucher for Amazon….who is the author of The Housemaid that keeps getting mentioned? Think I’m also going to buy Betty….it’s available in my local library but I can’t slyly read that at my desk at work like I can on my phone (first world problems!)
I shop in Asda and my husband has to steer me away from the book aisleI was in Asda today and they really had a good selection on the 2 for £8 deal. Im not mad keen on physical books so I didnt buy anything but they did have a great display.
Also saw on facebook someone saying Aldi had a stand alone display of some romance books £2.99 each.
Not at all!It's my birthday soon and my mum has offered to take me shopping and for lunch. For context, we both hate clothes shopping but I think she's running out of ideas (plus I think she wants to spend time together, just the two of us). AIBU to say can she just take me to Waterstones and/or The Works and set a budget??

i support this idea too!I love this idea I think that's great!
Sounds perfect to me! If you’re right and she just wants to spend some time with you then where better than somewhere you’re definitely going to enjoy? Is your mum a reader too? Maybe you could have a wander round Waterstones and share some recommendations with each other? Or if she’s not you could suggest something you think she might want to try.It's my birthday soon and my mum has offered to take me shopping and for lunch.

Book subscriptions are a great gift idea.not at all. I bought my sister and my mam a book subscription for their birthdays in the past
I’ve just finished I Who Have Never Known Men - read it in two sittings, one last night up to 50% then the other half on the train today. I loved it! So intriguing but yet heartbreaking. But I totally agree with the point in your spoiler - I want more!It wasnt too long and i didnt want to put it down really as it was quite fast paced and didnt drag like most books in that genre do.
Yes definitely not one to read if you’re feeling like that, not sure what I would have done in that situation
bit annoying we didnt find out what actually happened/where they were but nonetheless still a good read
my thoughts are with you as you try and wade through this bookI can’t see it’s been mentioned, but for all the TJR chat I’ve just got Carrie Soto on kindle daily deals for £1.99. I finished Daisy Jones last night and actually found it quite boring, I didn’t like the interview style of writing because I didn’t really care for the story of most of the characters, I think a book purely from her perspective would have been far more interesting, but even she was quite annoying. However, I really like tennis so I wanted to read Carrie Soto but didn’t wanna pay £8 when I’m on a book ban
