Oh I had forgotten how much I loved this one. Pratchett was a genius and wrote great female characters. Just sublime 5🌟
The secrets of Treasonfield house by JC Briggs
Absolutely brilliant book, sensitively written with great attention to historical detail.
A great read one small thing I did find it difficult at times to keep up with all the characters and who they were all related top but that was minor 4.5 🌟
Shardlake the complete BBC collection on Audible by CJ Sansom
Brilliant adaptations, they are abridged but still retain the brilliance of the books. Jason Watkins in the first is an excellent Shardlake but Justin Salinger is great as well 5 🌟
Secrets beneath the teacups by Dee Dee Edwards
A very charming cosy mystery set in a quaint town with loveable characters. A few twists and turns to keep you guessing and a satisfying conclusion. Looking forward to reading more with these loveable characters 4 🌟
From tragedy to eternity by Gary Masson
This book has moved me more than any ive read for a long time. The author is a friend of mine but that really hasn't coloured my judgement this is such a raw tale beautifully told. Inspired by real events and characters this story beautifully and passionately recreates their lives spanning from the end of the first world war to the end of the second. Moving emotional and at times funny it grabbed me and wrung my heart out. The depictions of Fraserburgh and it's folks are authentic and raw. 5 🌟
