The Women

By Kristen Hannah

5 stars

So fascinating - the women's (nurses) perspective of the Vietnam war, both in-country and back home. It was such an amazing story to see how minority groups were treated - women, women of colour, veterans - and responses to the trauma of loss and what they experienced.
Kinky History

By Esme Louise James

3 stars

An interesting narrative around human's 'intimate lives, past and present'. Some fascinating stories and an interesting method of storytelling - the author is famous from this series on TikTok and has adapted it into a 'dinner party' where experts are invited to share insight - a creative way to introduce academic research into the book while not being too boring for a younger audience.
The Girl in the Painting

By Tea Cooper

5 stars

A quick and easy read. Interesting characters, and I would enjoy seeing Jane develop in further books although it is not a series.
The Catch

By T M Logan

5 stars

I enjoyed the book, but did find the main characters made me so angry - an indication of great character development.
The Light Behind the Window

By Lucinda Riley

4 stars

I love Lucinda Riley's books and this one was pretty great. I felt a lot of emotions towards the characters, which reflects the level of involvement you feel due to good writing.
The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue

By V.E. Schwab

5 stars

I adored this book. A really interesting storyline. I did get confused with the dates a little bit, mostly as I was reading it digitally so couldn't go back to check things easily, but got used to it and adored the story.
The Opal Miner's Daughter

By Fiona McArthur

4 stars

Standard easy to read chick-lit that you can pick up and put down easily without needing to think about it too much.
The Dutch House

By Ann Patchett

4 stars

It was an interesting story, but does jump back and forth a lot. I enjoyed it.
As teh River Rises

By Fiona McArthur

4 stars

I read this after enjoying The Sugar Palace so much. It is a chick-lit type book so easy to read. Predictable but enjoyable.
Take Me Home

By Karly Lane

5 stars

I enjoyed this book. Easy to read and beautiful scenery described.
One of Us

By Kylie Kaden

5 stars

I love a good thriller and this one had good twists and was really easy to get into and read - kept me guessing too.
The Sugar Palace

By Fiona McIntosh

5 stars

I loved this book. It had amazing visuals and was an easy read that kept me engaged (and hooked straight away).
Take Two

By Danielle Hawkins

4 stars

This is a classic click-lit book when I needed some light reading that was quick and easy.
One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest

By Ken Kesey

4 stars

I read this as it is obviously a bit of a classic. It was ok.
