The Book of Life by Deborah Harkness. Review.

This was a superb ending to the All Souls Trilogy that I have read from the beginning . We have followed Diana and Matthew through a long and bitter journey to be together without those of both their kinds ( witch,vampire) trying to destroy them. In this book the battle really commences and there  are surprises and joy in store for them as well as terror . The loyalty of their true friends will be revealed when their enemies try to cause them the most harm , and the tension builds from the very beginning of the story and does not let up the entire way through the book . If you enjoy books about Vampires and Witches then I recommend this book ! It can be read alone but I recommend the entire trilogy as all the books have such detail put into them. I was really impressed by the amount of research that must have gone into this trilogy. Diana is a very strong female lead character and seeing the story through her eyes was very enjoyable . 

I received this book for review from the lovely folks over at Lovereading.co.uk.
This book has been published this month in Paperback and is available on the Lovereading website as well as all other good bookstores.

In Hospital Again

I hate hospitals so much , and to be back here so soon after last time is a real downer. I was rushed in by ambulance Friday night . I spent ten hours in casualty before getting into a bed in a ward . I was even in the same bed as earlier in the year  . The time went so long there , and the noise and the smells did not bring back good memories . Thankfully I am home again now after a painful stay and all I want is soup , bath , bed and books. The food can often be disgusting and I was def not a fan of this. 


Add some surgical tights during hot weather and it was lots of fun! 

Injections in my stomach and needles being put in are never pleasant and I go home black and blue , but I had some lovely chats with other patients and staff who were lovely. 

 Hopefully I will be back to my daily posts tomorrow or Tuesday at the latest. Wishing you all a lovely Sunday! Xxxx

The Last Anniversary by Liane Moriarty. Review

This is a story based around a fictional crime that took place 70 years previously on an island called Scribbly Gum. The story centers around a small group of people , Rose and Connie, Grace and her mother, Sophie , Callum. Veronika , Margie and Ron . Each person have their own issues and problems and are all linked to each other in one way or another. There is a lot of Secrets and lies, betrayals and old hurts and they are all entwined here with new beginnings , healing , and plenty of surprises. This is the first book I read by this author but it certainly won't be the last ! Superb!
