A huge thank you and well done to @BridgeBooksDro1 for another fantastic #DromoreBookFestival. I was fortunate to attend talks with #ClaireAllan, @annamcpartlin, @MiriamOCal, @svjdempz and #LizNugent and I loved every second of it!

Saturday reading. #AbigailDean

I’ve just watched ‘Weapons’ and I don’t think I’ll sleep ever again.

@Translink_NI @DublinAirport Hi there, I was planning to get the bus to Dublin bus aras on Saturday, are the buses not travelling to the city centre?

❗ #GLE Due to ongoing protests in #Dublin City Centre there are severe delays & disruption to X1/2/3/4 services, with some services experiencing delays of up to 2 hrs this morning. Please allow extra time for your journey, buses are operating to/from @DublinAirport only

‘A Family Matter’ by @vintagebooks author #ClaireLynch is a beautifully written story about a fractured family, a broken society and a sweet little girl in the middle of it all. I loved it so much!

Happy publication day to @PenguinIEBooks author #LizNugent on the release of her new book called ‘The Truth about Ruby Cooper’ a dark and tangled story riddled with lies and betrayal. #BookReview #TheTruthAboutRubyCooper

Happy publication day to @MichaelJBooks author @LesleyPearse on the release of her book called ‘The Girl with the Suitcase’. Looking forward to reading this one soon. Thank you @ed_pr for the copy of the book. #TheGirlWithTheSuitCase

@BridgeBooksDro1 @K25052Knapp I bought it the last time I was in with you and thinking of recommending it for my next book club.

Yes, I'm late to The Names party, but it was well worth waiting for! This is the story of love, cruelty, survival, violence, resistance, courage, and hope. This is a book that will stay with me for a long time. I would have The Names on every A Level syllabus in the country.

‘Bring Me Sunshine’ is by @BoldwoodBooks author @alexbrownbooks is a beautifully written story that will brighten up the darkest of days and is a glorious book about friendship and was an absolute page turner from the first page.

‘The Honeymoon Affair’ by @headlinepg author #SheilaOFlanagan, a story that I couldn’t put down, flowing at a lovely pace and strong relatable characters and a plotline that I was fully invested in. #TheHoneymoonAffair #BookReview

Today’s reading. What’s yours?

I’m so excited to be part of the book reveal for bestselling author @lisajewelluk’s brand new thriller IT COULD HAVE BEEN HER, out on 2 July 2026. You can preorder from @Waterstones and get signed copies for half-price at this link: waterstones.com/book/it-could-…

‘A Friend of the Family’ by @deankoontz is a beautifully written story about finding your place in life and never giving up. #AFriendOfTheFamily #BookReview @FMcMAssociates

‘A Song for Me and You’ by @HodderBooks author @mikegayle is a beautifully written story about reconnecting and new beginnings. It’s the first book I’ve read by Mike in a while and I loved it! #BookReview

‘The Compound’ is the debut novel by @BoroughPress author @AislingRawle and is a cleverly written story with a protagonist that is both likeable and dislikable in equal measures. An addictive debut that was impossible to put down. #BookReview #TheCompound #AislingRawle

My first review of 2026 and it’s a festive one! ‘Let the Bells Ring’ by @TeamBATC author @millyjohnson is the perfect story to get absorbed in whatever the season. #LetTheBellsRingOut #BookReview handwrittengirl.com/book-reviews/l…

@louise_candlish Already half way through it!

@handwritten Enjoy! ☺️

A new year, a new book @louise_candlish

Such sad news to hear of the passing of #SophieKinsella, I absolutely loved the Shopaholic series and ‘Can You Keep A Secret?’ was one of my favourite books, a terrible loss to the book world. bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

I’m really enjoying reading ‘A Heart for Christmas’ by #SophieJomain, a book Advent calendar that eases the busy person back into reading with one chapter a day, a sweet and warm-hearted story minus the calories. #AHeartForChristmas
