Hello everyone and happy #stacksaturday ⁣ ⁣ Today I’m sharing the next five physical books on my TBR but I’ll also be reading books from my Kindle. Some of these books have been on my shelves for a while!!⁣ ⁣ ✈️ In The Unlikely Event - Judy Blume⁣ I’ve been so worried about reading this book! 😂 Judy Blume is a childhood heroine of mine and I haven’t read anything by her in years. This book follows Miri who returns to her hometown 35 years after three planes fell from the sky in three months changing the lives of families and friends. This story is based on actual events and sounds so intriguing. ⁣ ⁣ 🎸 The Blue Guitar - John Banville ⁣ This is the story of Oliver Orme, a painter and a thief whose worst theft was the wife of his friend. When the affair is discovered, he hides away and tells the story of a year in his life.⁣ ⁣ 😴 Sleeping Beauties - Jo Spain⁣ This is the third book in the Inspector Tom Reynolds series and follows the grim discovery of young women’s bodies who all disappeared in recent years. I love Jo Spain’s writing so I’m looking forward to catching up with D.I. Reynolds again.⁣ ⁣ 😱 The Dark Room - Jonathan Moore⁣ I had never heard of this book or author before I received it in a book subscription box. It follows Inspector Gavin Cain who is about to exhume a coffin and knows there is something terrible inside. ⁣ ⁣ 😬 Outsider - Stephen King⁣ I’m so excited to be reading something by King again. I’m doing this a bit backwards as I have already watched the TV series 🙊 but I’m looking forward to something eerily supernatural and a good mystery.⁣ ⁣ This latest TBR is quite crime/mystery heavy but it’s books I’m really in the mood for at the moment. Quite a good distraction from regular life! I’d love to know your opinions on any of these books or authors. Let’s have a chat in the comments! #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #booklover #bookaddict #bookaholic #tbrpile #booksimreadingnext #intheunlikelyevent #judyblume #theblueguitar #johnbanville #sleepingbeauties #jospain #thedarkroom #jonathanmoore #outsider #stephenking #crimefiction #detectivefiction #booksimexcitedtoread https://www.instagram.com/p/CMXxValgvVM/?igshid=8c9xvrsfd8yw

Who's Telling the Truth?

I liked this book and found  it addictive reading. I resented leaving it to live the rest of my life. i just needed to know the why and the real who.

Who needs to confess – and about what?

Slowly, and inexorably we find out the truth and the reasons for the first, really big, confession.

Carefully crafted, this book takes you through the lives of the 2 story-tellers – that explain the final act.

Happy publication day to Jo Spain and @quercusbooks with her latest stand-alone thriller, Six Wicked Reasons. Thank you to Quercus for the #gifted copy. 🤔 If you haven’t tried Spain’s writing yet, it really is a treat - you never quite know what you’re going to get. 🤔There are always fascinating characters, an intricate plot and moments to keep the reader guessing. 🤔This is the second Jo Spain I’ve read, after adoring Dirty Little Secrets last year and I always worry that I’m never going to get to grips with all the characters. 🤔After a few chapters, this worry melts away and I thoroughly enjoy the variety of interesting personalities she presents. 🤗Solid four star 🌟 🌟 🌟 🌟 read for me and I’m looking forward to exploring more of the author’s back catalogue! #bookstagram #bookworm #quercusbooks #jospain #sixwickedreasons https://www.instagram.com/p/B7ZHoi4BFMM/?igshid=gfqu5y8t6hsa

Jo Spain - Six Wicked Reasons

When the long lost son returns after ten years without a word, Frazer Lattimer calls his six children for a family reunion. It is only reluctantly that they return to the family villa in Spanish Cove, all of them had a good reason for leaving. Yet, Adam‘s unexpected knock on the door when they all thought him dead makes them change their mind. However, from the very first minute, underlying suspicions and open hatred dominate the atmosphere and their anger escalates on a boat trip when one of them kills their father. None of them is innocent, but who really hated the old man that much that he or she could kill him? Jo Spain‘s mystery is a highly suspenseful murder investigation combined with the psychological analysis of a family which is dominated by secrets and lies. Six children with six different fates, a controlling father and a mother who died from the grief over her lost son - there is a lot to discover under the surface of the successful and rich Lattimer clan. I highly adored how Jo Spain slowly unfolds the secrets around each of the now grown up children. Starting with the murder of their old father, you are highly alert when hearing all their different stories, looking for motives that could lead them so far. The author created individuals who all have their flaws and weaknesses that they try to hide but which ultimately have to come out, so in every new chapter, you have something totally unexpected come to the light adding to the picture of this young and pitiable generation. Suspense rises slowly the better you get to know the family members and yet, the conspiracy and murder nevertheless came as a surprise to me since it was brilliantly set up and convincingly motivated. A great read in every respect.

It’s taken me far too long to share my gifted books from the recent @quercusbooks Word Of Mouth Bestsellers evening. Thank you so much to @keeperofpages for inviting me along and to Quercus for continuing to publish incredible and intriguing books. These are some of the beauties heading your way in 2020. Which am I most looking forward to? It’s hard to say. I’m very excited for both the Jo Spain and the Kate Reed Petty but each one of these had a synopsis that made me want to grab it. #bookstagram #bookworm #publishersevent #quercus2020 #truestory #katiereedpetty #lastchristmas #gregwise #emmathompson #iamnotyourbabymother #candicebraithwaite #highfire #eoincolfer #jospain #sixwickedreasons #dearchild #romyhausmann #theslaughtermansdaughter #yaniviczkovits #thedisappearanceofstephaniemailer #joeldicker #whataluckygirl https://www.instagram.com/p/B32KS5NgLHn/?igshid=1tp0bktjsywz4
