I'm listening to The Strange Case of Dr Jekyll and Mr Hyde by Robert Louis Stevenson. Its read by Christopher Lee who is amazing!!

I'm reading Pagans by James Alistair Henry. It's a modern crime thriller but it's set in a world where the Norman conquest never happened so the UK is still populated by the ancient tribes.

I am reading She Didn't See it Coming by Shari Lapena - a definite page turner

I love Agatha Christie, but this is my first time reading any of her non-crime books. Class and money worries conspire to thwart the main character's ambitions. Can he marry for love, keep the family estate and pursue a career as a musician? Place your bets...

I'll be reading our latest book club choice. An emotional one but a beautiful story. Think I'll be thinking about this one for a very long time.

Hamnet - Maggie O'Farrell

Inspired by current Bridgerton hype, I decided to try the "Queen of Regency romance" - Georgette Heyer. The Quiet Gentleman is not a typical Heyer romance, it's also a mystery as Gervase Frant, the 7th Earl of St Erth, returns from Waterloo to find his stepfamily plotting to kill him...

Just started The Women by Kristin Hannah after finishing Seven Husbands of Evelyn Hugo. The Women is about young nurses experiences in the Vietnam war. I read a book called The Things They Carried about this war years ago and its stayed with me so I'm looking forward to getting into it!

Reading this at the minute. Not my usual reading of serial killers however, this series of books by Ben Aaronovitch of witches, wizards and magic related crimes in today's London are really good. This is book 6 or 7. Definitely worth a look :)

I'll be reading this novel. I am loving it despite taking a while to get into it!

Rereading The Poisonwood Bible and crying!

I’m re-reading this after watching People We Meet On Vacation - feels like a good read for the start of summer.

A little late, but I actually finished, "When Among The Crows" by Veronica Roth. It was a nice wee novella, about different folklore and monsters.
