Hello everyone, happy Friday to you all! I’m off work now until Wednesday so that’s the perfect excuse to hopefully get a lot of reading done. Here’s three new beautiful hardbacks I’ve added to my TBR. I’ve only read one Kate Atkinson book before (currently re-reading Life After Life) but am determined to catch up on all her books. This is her latest release and I’m planning to buddy read it with @emmasbookishcorner at some point! Set in the Roaring Twenties in London in a country still recovering from the Great War, London is the focus for a delirious nightlife. In Soho clubs, peers of the realm rub shoulders with starlets, foreign dignitaries with gangsters and girls sell dances for a shilling a time. Nellie Coker is a ruthless ruler, ambitious for her six children. But success breeds enemies. Beneath the gaiety lies a dark underbelly, where one may be all too easily lost. Confession time - the middle book was a total cover/title buy. I #kellvery little about it before I decided I had to have it. Luckily the synopsis was just as good as I had hoped. In an alternate world, We learn about a Mass Dragoning in 1955 where 300,000 women spontaneously transform into dragons…and change the world. Finally, I was eager to get my hands on Demon Copperhead as soon as I heard it was being released. It has been described as a once in a generation novel that breaks and mends your heart in the way only the best fiction can. A boy is born during a traumatic birth to his single mother in a single-wide trailer looking like “a little blue prizefighter.” Raised in poverty and growing up in the middle of the modern opioid crisis, Demon is born on the wrong side of luck, the affection and safety he craves is as remote as the ocean he dreams of seeing one day. The wonder is how far he’s willing to travel in order to get there. I’m also planning on buddy reading this with @emmasbookishcorner I’d love to know your thoughts on any of these books or authors. Let’s have a chat in the comments! #bookstagramuk #scottishbookstagrammer #morebookslessproblems #shrinesofgaiety #kateatkinson #whenwomenweredragons #kellybarnhill #demoncopperhead #barbarakingsolver #booksicantwaittoread https://www.instagram.com/p/CmhLQgwrk1Y/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
