I’ve just ordered the set! If they arrive early enough tomorrow they could really help push my low June total up lolomg sugar!!! i found the series of books they brought out (i can’t remember the name of them now) when tidying during lockdown and reread them all in about a dayit’s gonna bug me that i can’t remember the titles!
i reread the girls series last year and would strongly recommend giving them a read before her new book. i’m so excited for it, i love jacqueline wilson so much. i saw her in hay-on-wye once and was too scared to go and speak to her because i thought i would cry 🥲
also i have turned a corner in fourth wing and i’m into it. would like to find a xaden in real life possibly. it really comes to life when the dragons show up
Oh is this Fourteen floors or something ? I have it on my TBR list and I’ve seen it in my library!I've just seen Jack Edwards talking about this book, called Fourteen Days - a v interesting concept! Each character is written by a different author, edited by Margaret Atwood.

Aah, I’m tempted! Not sure why I haven’t book tbh, maybe assumed I’d be taking a child’s spot forgetting this isn’t for pre-teens lol.I've booked a ticket for JW's book tour for the new Girls book and I can't bloody wait.

Yes, all thanks to this thread, ahahaDoes anyone else have an extortionate TBR list? I use Goodreads “want to read” shelf to make a note of any books that I see or hear about and want to come back to. I also really really enjoy reading book reviews and recommendations and follow a couple of people who post a lot about books they read… I now have a TBR on GR of 500+ books
Ahh this is disappointing as it's a good idea!Aah, I’m tempted! Not sure why I haven’t book tbh, maybe assumed I’d be taking a child’s spot forgetting this isn’t for pre-teens lol.

I read Wrong Place, Wrong Time by the sameJust finished Just Another Missing Person by Gillian McAllister. The second book of hers I've read, first was That Night a few months ago.
I give both 3.5/5.
I liked the pacing and that they had several twists throughout the story. Realising I might prefer that over one or two big reveals which can be disappointing if they're too silly or obvious, then you've got to force yourself to read the book to the end.
LOVE criminal minds, it’s one of my favourite tv shows. There’s so many great fics in that fandom but there is a hell of a lot of smut tooI defintely would enjoy some Criminal Minds
If Spencer isn't gay as fuck, I don't want to read it.LOVE criminal minds, it’s one of my favourite tv shows. There’s so many great fics in that fandom but there is a hell of a lot of smut too
I loved both those series and the famous five, but I adored Noel Streatfeilds books and books about horse riding girls! I loved all the old stories What Katy Did, Little Women, and I still have most of them! I always kept them, thought my kids might want to read them but they just don't!samei was more of a twins at st clare’s girl but i thought daryl was just the coolest person ever. i was devastated to get to comprehensive school and find that we didn’t have a lacrosse team for me to join
She came to one of our local theatres a few years back, maybe 10 years, and we went, she talked for ages, her whole life story and the stories behind her books, then did a book signing and meet and greet. She's a fabulous lady.I’ve just ordered the set! If they arrive early enough tomorrow they could really help push my low June total up lol
She did a signing at my local Waterstones December last year and I was definitely embarrassingly staring at her in an ‘ITS ACTUAL JACQUELINE WILSON OMG’ way. The kids in the queue were way cooler than me.
Ah the dragons are great! They have an unexpected but highly welcome amount of personality.
Absolutely. Green flag all round with her.Oh doesn’t Jacqueline Wilson just seem like the loveliest person? She has such a young and kind face
I really enjoyed the series (book #3 got a bit unhinged thoughI've been listening to Good Girl, Bad Blood (the sequel to A Good Girls Guide to Murder) recently and for once I'm really enjoying an audiobook! It's odd, because it definitely feels like a book that doesn't seem particularly suited to audio format, with the little case file bits and 'evidence' at the end of chapters, but it's a good story.
I read those two Gillian McAllister books too and really really recommend "Wrong Place Wrong Time" by her - that's my favourite of hers that I've readJust finished Just Another Missing Person by Gillian McAllister. The second book of hers I've read, first was That Night a few months ago.

I think July 1st on the BBC in the UK and August 1st on Netflix worldwide.I really enjoyed the series (book #3 got a bit unhinged though). It's becoming a TV series but not sure when it's being released.
