🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 Cymera 2026 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿 My fourth time attending @cymerafestival but my first as a panellist. It’s always a highlight of the year for me (any excuse to go back to Edinburgh and this gem of a festival). A huge thank you to @heatherpalmerwritesbooks for being an excellent moderator and asking such insightful questions. And to @tashasuri for being a brilliant conversation partner. I laughed so much more than I expected to, I got to wear a Britney mic for the first time, and I was introduced as a bestselling author (still profoundly insane). Thank you to the organisers and volunteers and to everyone who came to watch our panel and those who came to the signing afterwards. It was lovely to meet you 🫶🏼 Until next year 💜✨

With Dervla crowned ruler, Trevesiga is starving, unrest is growing, and power is once again slipping into dangerous hands.

Synopsis Steph Harper is on the run. When she was five, her mother ran – with Steph and her younger sister in tow – from an abusive husband into the arms of a small Cherokee community, where she hoped they might finally belong. But Steph soon sets her sights as far away as she can get, vowing that she will let nothing interfere with her dream to become an astronaut, and ultimately, to go to the moon. In Steph’s certainty that only her ambition can save her, she will stretch her bonds with the three women who know and love her most dearly: her younger sister Kayla, an artist whose determination to appear good takes her life to unexpected places; her college girlfriend Della, who strives to reclaim her identity as an adult after being removed from her family as a young girl through a challenge to the Indian Child Welfare Act; and her mother Hannah, who has held up her family’s history as a beacon of inspiration to her kids, all the while keeping the truth about her own past a secret. Told through these women’s interwoven lives, and spanning three decades and several continents, To the Moon and Back is an astounding and expansive coming-of-age novel of mothers and daughters, love and sacrifice, alienation and heartbreak, terror and wonder. At its core, it is the story of the extraordinary lengths one woman will go to find a little space for herself.

Book Review: Over and Over by Becky Hunter Release Date: 12 February Thank you to @randomthingstours @beckyhunterbooks @atlanticbooks Another book tour stop for me, and yep, another shoddily edited Kindle photo! 😅🫣 I’m actually posting this review on my husband’s birthday, which feels incredibly fitting given that this book is ultimately all about the choice to lean into love 🥰. When we meet Lissa, she’s been stuck in a bit of a rut for a while. She’s living under a heavy cloud of grief and general discontent... until she meets Ash. Their connection is immediate, and you honestly can’t deny the spark between them. The story follows Lissa and Ash as they navigate their feelings and the messy realities of their individual lives, all while battling a series of “bad timing” moments. Something always seems to prevent them from truly getting things off the ground; it felt very realistic, but I’ll admit it was also occasionally irritating to read! Running parallel to the modern romance are the flashbacks Lissa has of her past lives - echoes of old romances and lost loves. As a historical fiction fan, I really enjoyed these segments, though the transitions occasionally felt a bit abrupt, and it took me a moment to adjust to the new timeframes. I actually found myself wanting to stay in those past lives a little longer to see those stories fully resolved! Ultimately, this is a beautiful, emotional, and grounded portrayal of fighting for love and the weight of choosing yourself versus others. It’s a moving read, a great portrayal of grief and is a story that I know will stay with me for a while. 💖 #overandover

Huge thanks to @randomthingstours @atlanticbooks and @beckyhunterbooks for inviting me onto the blogtour for Becky’s newest romance, Over and Over. I have been a fan of Becky’s writing ever since I read One Moment-and Over and Over is a fantastic addition to Becky’s collection. It’s not just a romance, there are multiple layers and storylines woven together. It’s a tale of past lives, regret, guilt and trauma, as well as a story of finding your person. Lissa is lost in life. She’s unhappy at work, she has a fractious relationship with her mother, her dad has a new family, and she spends every day regretting her part in her baby sister’s tragic accident. She has also started having vivid dreams that seem to show her in previous lives and different times. There’s always a man in these dreams, someone that she is desperately in love with. Every time she wakes up, she feels a yearning to be back there, wherever and whenever it may be. In this lifetime, she has just met Ash. Could he be someone significant in this lifetime? It’s a beautifully emotional story; my heart ached for Lissa and all that she is carrying. I would recommend this for someone looking for a more unusual romance story and an emotional journey. #overandover #beckyhunter #atlanticbooks
