THE END OF HER – SHARI LAPENA

A mega change from The Couple Next Door which I read earlier this year... a big YAY from me, great for thriller seekers where you will be kept guessing until the end!

NINE PERFECT STRANGERS – LIANE MORIARTY

A sadly annoying, disjointed novel from Liane Moriarty - keep your expectations low compared to what I did after the success of Big Little Lites

BURNT SUGAR – AVNI DOSHI

A hard slog of a novel full of implicit meaning and a dark storyline of a spiteful relationship between mother and daughter.

I FEEL BAD ABOUT MY NECK – NORA EPHRON

A witty read by the late Nora Ephron, a successful New York based journalist who reveals her experiences of being a woman which some of us are perhaps a bit too afraid (and ashamed?) to admit. So what if we feel bad about our necks?

WHO THEY WAS – GABRIEL KRAUZE

A gripping piece of autofiction from the very first page. Prepare to squirm in your seat as Krauze details his own experiences from being in a London gang, and how he got out (just)...

KLARA AND THE SUN – KAZUO ISHIGURO

Part literary, part sci-fi, part dystopian - Ishiguro's novel for 2021 explores the meaning of life and what it actually means to be human as told through robot Klara's eyes. Do we really live mundane lives?

SILVERVIEW – JOHN LE CARRÉ

A confusing novel by the late John Le Carré - espionage, thriller, mystery and suspense. Can someone please tell me what I've missed - what is the actual story?!

ATONEMENT – IAN McEWAN

A beautiful, yet tragically flawed story for Ian McEwan's characters, as thirteen-year-old Briony Tallis spends a lifetime trying to atone for her foolish actions, all from a misunderstanding from a family dinner that ruins the lives of many...

ABOUT ME

Hi, I’m Lizzie and welcome to my blog!

I’m a Business graduate who loves to eat chocolate, read books, write, visit charity shops, eat more chocolate and read some more… (although not necessarily in that order!)

I hope you enjoy this space I’ve created, feel free to give the posts a like and leave a comment!

It’s true! 🤫 DNF - it happens… 📚 Happy Fri-YaY! Colleen Hoover - Without Merit 📎 Here are just a few of the books I’ve read recently and LOVED each of them! Mostly memoirs which probably indicates how nosey I can be, but I’d argue these women all inspire me and write beautifully 😌 They’ve made me laugh, nod, frown and feel a whole array of emotions. That’s when you know you’ve picked a goodie Crime + Thriller book stack 📚 My first reel attempt! Me and my little helper (kind of) re-organise and clean my bookcase! 📚 🐶 I read this today - well, 2/3. I don’t mind Molly-Mae but I wouldn’t call myself a superfan. I was curious to read her autobiography bc she is younger than me and I was intrigued to see if she had any more juice, besides Love Island and PLT. Verity. 🖋 What a joy this was to read!
