Books #5 the book lovers thread!

I have finished One in Three by Tess Stimson, I only read it because Stolen was so good and it was 'free' on Kindle Unlimited. I think it was even better than Stolen. I didn't see the ending coming at all. I really like Stimson's writing. More of her books are 99p so I am tempted. But I have so many already to read.....

I'm reading 'Rodham' which is the Sliding Doors of if Hilary hadn't married Bill. It's good.

I’m reading that too and it’s great!

Really like Tess Stimson!
On my library app 3 of her books are available right now so it might be worth checking out.

I got Karen Swans new Christmas book from the library and I’m so happy it’s a bit sad to admit

Ohh interesting! I'm going to look it up. Thank you for the reccomendation.

I have 'Everyone knows your Mother is a Witch' by Rivka Galchen ordered. Was similarly looking for a book for the spooky season!

very different, but there is a book called The Heretics Daughter, I cannot remember the author but it is about the witch trials in the US, very realistic you can really picture how it was

Which series did you finish? I've started out my Brandon Sanderson journey, I'm in the middle of Elantris, and hope to pick up Mistborn next! Have you read any Sanderson, and did you enjoy it?

Enjoy!!
I’ve read Elantris, the Mistborn trilogy & just about to start the Stormlight archive
They just get better & better

The Nickel Boys is 99p today. It is one of my favourite ever books, such a powerful story so brilliantly written.

Deal of the day: The Nickel Boys: Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Fiction 2020
Amazon product

It absolutely is 99p despite that saying £4.99.

I enjoyed it so much more than the underground rail road!

Maybe a good palate cleanser? After you can return to the wonderful world of Christmas fiction.

I've just started The Hundred Years of Lenni and Margot. It's really good and I enjoy the humour in it. However I know it is going to break my heart so gearing myself up for that.

Ooh I have this on my TBR. A bookstagrammer with similar taste to me recommended it.

Im reading Ugly Love by Colleen Hoover. I love her writing style.

I’m reading Small Pleasures by Clare Chambers at the minute.

It’s set in the late 50s and tells the story of a woman who claims to have had a virgin birth, and the journalist out to prove (or otherwise) the story.

It was longlisted for The Women’s Prize for Fiction earlier this year (I actually enjoyed it far more than the eventual winner).

Guys... I'm mega confused and I was hoping someone might be able help me... Why do Evelyns seem to keep getting sevens of things?! Seven husbands, and then I've seen seven deaths, but I've also weirdly seen seven and a half deaths too, and at this point I feel like I'm hallucinating in the library. What is going on, is there any one who can help me feel a little less discombobulated in the contemporary fiction section, because I genuinely don't understand why there seem to be 3 (or more, who know at this point) Evelyns getting seven things....

We will soon discover that Snow White's real name is actually Evelyn.

Which begs the question, is Snow White bisexual or dead.
