@LauraPAuthor @thebobpalmer Agreed! It took me a few chapters to relax into the different approach, but I thought it worked really well and really enjoyed it. A memorable read!

I absolutely love a fresh take on a love story, and #MainCharacters by @thebobpalmer is certainly that. Palmer feeds us the story of Clara and Seb from the perspectives of everyone around them, from close friends to random passersby.

I enjoyed both learning about the author’s personal journey and the snippets of guidance and advice from other writers (including me!)

I enjoy books about writing, and @MrKelly2u was kind enough to send me a copy of #RealWritersNeverQuit. It’s a no-nonsense, hands-on, practical writing guide, and it would be great for anyone who’s questioning their future as a writer, or trying to decide which way to go.

I don’t want to give anything away, but you know that whatever decision they make, it’s the wrong one, and things start to go very wrong very quickly. I was completely hooked from start to finish. @ZaffreBooks

The premise is simple and brilliant - three couples find a backpack full of cash in a remote cave while hiking, and they’re split down the middle when it comes to deciding whether they should hand it in to the police or keep it.

I’ve read a handful of @TMLoganAuthor’s ten thrillers, and #TheWeekend was my favourite. I listened on audio and kept sneaking off to enjoy an extra ten minutes whenever I could.

…her husband on the other side of America, and her first love staying nearby, but I loved every bit of the journey and Serle remains a firm favourite. @QuercusBooks

In this case, a ticket that allows the women in a family to go back and change something once in their lives. I didn’t know how it was going to play out, with protagonist Lauren living at the beach with her parents and grandmother for the summer…

Rebecca Serle is an author who never lets me down. I didn’t need to read the blurb to know I wanted to read her new novel, #OnceandAgain. As always, the characters are vivid, the prose is beautiful, and the story has an intriguing speculative element.

This tense thriller follows Clara as she tries to get to the bottom of her daughter’s murder, and I found it hard to look away. There’s a great sense of place, and an ending I didn’t come close to guessing. @BloomsburyBooks

I really liked the premise of #TheGoodListener by @holly_watt, which is that a woman whose daughter has been murdered receives a phone call (while working as a phone line volunteer) from a woman who claims her husband murdered a little girl.

At first, I felt like this technique was creating a bit of distance between me and the main characters, but I did love the cleverness of it, the way the story was picked up and passed on by each narrator, like a relay baton.
