✨ Book Review ✨

All Eyes on you by @samfranwriter

I won this in a competition and it was sitting on my TBR for too long! This is a crime thriller full of psychological suspense.
We meet DS Alice Washington as she investigates the stalking of bestselling crime writer Camilla only to discover that the stalker appears to be recreating scenes from Camilla’s own novels.

Alice is the protagonist and I loved her witty self, flawed and how relatable she was. She struggles with self doubt constantly trying to prove her self at work professionally

I enjoyed this one especially when I could follow all the characters through! If you enjoy crime thrillers and detective stories then this is for you! I am intrigued about the next one, One by One!

Do you like crime thrillers ?
Happy Tuesday 🫶🏼

Oddly, crime writers are the most delightful people you could ever wish to meet.
You’d think they’d be dark, brooding & menacing, right?
Nope. They’re a warm, welcoming & the very best company. I can only surmise that the darkness is all dealt with on the page. That’s certainly my excuse 😉

Thanks so much for organising last night’s get together @m_j_arlidge @heather.critchlow @john_sutherland_author @gdwrightwrites @domnolanauthor ❤️

There's a possibility that you're reading this either late on Sunday night, quietly dreading waking up for the Monday morning routine, or early on Monday morning before another week starts throwing things at you. Well, treat yourself to a few more minutes of relaxation - you deserve it - and have a read of my Q&A with another of my Harrogate pals, the lovely @samfranwriter!

It's on my #bookblog at www.mycosybooknook.wordpress.com (#linkinbio) and her answers are fabulous! 😍

As I’m sure many of you in the book community know, the lovely Laura Pearson has recently been diagnosed with leukaemia. She’s been in hospital this week, and has a book out on 6th September, so some of her author pals and I decided we’d do the promotion that she can’t right now.
Laura is not only a talented writer and storyteller, she’s also one the most supportive people in our community, and a valued friend to so many of us.
Here’s a 2 part carousel of authors who think you should buy, The Day Our Lives Collided. You trust these people’s recommendations, right?
You can find the book by following the link and in stories. Let’s see if this can follow Laura’s Mabel up the charts!
(Any reposts would be appreciated too 🙏)

What an evening!! Can we do it all again??

There’s so many people I want to mention but I’ll let the photos do the talking and just say it was a brilliant night of one or two (maybe several drinks), a beautiful sunset, witches hats, laughing so hard I was crying (@tmpayneauthor) karaoke (@samfranwriter , I believe you missed the karaoke 😂) and dancing around a wet floor sign!!

Roll on the next party and if it’s at WSM next time ~ I’ll be booking a different hotel 😂
