I’ve just finished it and really enjoyed it. I was slightly disappointed by the ending but it was very readable.

There were moments of this book I really liked but it was looooong. And then the ending totally ruined it for me. Far too “I want to win the Man Booker Prize” for my lowly tastes.

I could not cope with that but good for you! My brain will only cope with one book at a time otherwise I get all muddled up!
I'm currently reading Bomb Girls by Jacky Hyams and Shouting the Odds by Jon Franklin and I have to say I'm really enjoying them. Shouting the Odds is definitely the best book that I have read so far this year.

I couldn't abide it for all these reasons. And that one chapter with zero grammar. Pissed me right off.
Book buddies I need some recommendations. I have 4 audible credits to use and I don’t know what to get. I’m looking for something along the lines of Before My Actual Heart Breaks 
Trespasses, Elinor Oliphant, Strange Sally Diamond that kind of thing. I love an Irish narration

I’ve just finished The Prison Healer.
I did enjoy it overall, it had the perfect mix of magic without it being the entire plot of the series.
At only 385 pages (on my e-reader) it was a pretty quick read, but I found myself skipping pages to get past repetitive bits and pieces that were mentioned multiple times and overall didn’t really contribute to the plot.
As a smut reader (don’t judge me
) I did enjoy it as a palette cleanser as the romance side is sweet and a nice change from … my usual
As everyone has said, the plot twist is FANTASTIC and I did not see it coming. That alone makes me want to read book 2!

I listened to Frankie by Graham Norton recently and really enjoyed it. He narrates himself which is why I find it so easy to listen to his books.Book buddies I need some recommendations.

Actually I've not long finished listening to A Keeper (also GN) and wasn't overly impressed by the story, especially in comparison to some of his other books.
I found Confessions very boring.. I applied for the advance copy on the basis of NYC and when it switched to Ireland it got really dull really fast for me
Smut reader here tooI’ve just finished The Prison Healer.

I also love Irish narration. I enjoyed all the books you mention. I’d recommend Frankie, Our Little Cruelties, When All Is Said,Book buddies I need some recommendations.
