When A Light Goes Out

February 23, 2015

This is a difficult blog post to write. It’s not about writing – although it kind of is. It’s about a friend who died. And about bad luck. And making the most of what you have. And love. Two and a half weeks ago (is it that long already?!) a friend of mine died unexpectedly. I … More When A Light Goes Out

Stormy Night – review

February 16, 2015

I don’t usually review picture books, but the lovely people at Bloomsbury have somehow accidentally put me on their reviewer-blogger list and have sent me a couple of beautiful shiny new ones. As you may recall from my last blog post, I’ve had a rough ride the past week or so (and now illness is … More Stormy Night – review

Love Hurts In Birmingham (or does it?)

February 14, 2015

I am SO thrilled. There was some … More Looking at the Stars is shortlisted for the OBAs!

Worry Magic – review

February 5, 2015

I’m a bit wary of books with ‘magic’ in the title. I don’t read a lot of fantasy these days (which is strange because I used to adore it as a child, and I still rate the Discworld novels as some of my favourites) and I think it’s because I find it harder to connect … More Worry Magic – review

The Door That Led To Where – review

February 2, 2015

The Door That Led To Where is one of those book titles that makes you wonder how it came into being. Was it the beginning of the story? By which I mean, did Sally Gardner start with the title and build the story around it? Or was it one of those titles that was absurdly … More The Door That Led To Where – review
