Author: @_hankingauthor Publisher: @Noexitpress Publishing Date: 9th April 2026 Many thanks to the publishing team and @RandomThingsTours for my physical copy of the book and a spot on the blog tour. Full review is live on my blog page ✨️ Blurb January 2023. Cara’s great-aunt Audrey has died, and her husband Tony needs her presence at the funeral. It will be a stretch for Cara, whose every day is an emotional challenge, a challenge which is getting harder as her daughter’s tenth birthday approaches. But with her family beside her, she’s prepared to try… June 2000. Ten-year-old Cara and her sister Charlotte are sent to live with their great aunt and uncle, part of a famous acting family, when their mother is hospitalised. The Wolfes see the world as a drama they are starring in, and while her sister seems instantly at home Cara feels very much the outsider. And for all the staginess of Chaplin House, there is real tragedy brewing… #littledarlings #reading #bookblogger #bookreview #noexitpress

Full review is live on my blog page ✨️ Blurb Nobody told her that marriage would be murder... Ned Wheeler was devoted to his family. He was also convicted and jailed for murder. After spending three decades in prison, Ned's up for parole. But this is not his story. It's about Joan, the wife who was fooled by his good looks and charm; Cass, the daughter who wants nothing more to do with him; and Florence, the woman who wants the world to know she's saved him. #bookblogger #bookstargram #happilyeverafter #bookishcontent #BookReview

Author: @zoemanlowbooks Publisher: @bedfordsq.publishers Publishing Date: 23rd April 2026 Many thanks to the publishing team and @RandomThingsTours for my physical copy of the book and a spot on the tour Blurb When Caroline Alleyn inherits Wickham Grange, all she wants to do is sell up. There are bad memories there, linked to her childhood as the daughter of a single mother – and to all the other mothers she knew in that house. But her grandmother Frances’s will means that it can’t be sold without the consent of five elderly women, and they all refuse. None of them will tell her why she has to keep a house she doesn’t want. Instead, she is given a stark warning: don’t look for Lizzie Sixpence. Though Caroline has other worries. Someone is watching her; the house’s elderly tenants are lying to her; and an old man is hoarding mementoes of her past. Then she finds the bones. And Caroline is left with a choice: keep silent, or betray everything her grandmother stood for. Because there is one final secret to be revealed…

Author: @ben_tufnell Publisher: @influxpress Publishing Date: 5th March 2026 Many thanks to the publishing team and @RandomThingsTours for my physical copy of the book and a spot on the tour. Full review is live on my blog page ✨️ Blurb A world on the brink of collapse. Dense woods, mountains, a standing stone, a barrow, and a very old house. But if you've only ever known concrete and glass, how do you live in a place like this? Recruited by a mysterious organisation, Nash thinks things are finally going his way. But when a job goes badly wrong, he is taken to an isolated location to await a decision on his fate. Paradise is a crumbling cottage deep in a forest; Nash is free to leave the house but must not leave the woods. It is winter, and this wild and remote place is unknowable and terrifying. He attempts to map his surroundings to find a way out, but they resist him, the land seemingly shifting and changing. Moreover, he begins to suspect that his employers' intentions may be much darker than anticipated. Forming an unlikely friendship, Nash finally begins to understand the consoling power of the place that has become his home. Brigid is sure of herself and at home in the natural world, while he is urban, lost. But she longs for his world, and he longs for hers. Now the wheel of the year is turning. As winter gives way to spring Nash's fate has been decided, and they are coming to deliver their verdict... #BookReview #influxpress #paradisebook #randomthingstours #bookblogger

Author: @harrietarmstrong2000 Publisher: @les.fugitives.press Thank you to the @midascampaigns team for sending me this book for review as part of the Dylan Thomas Prize. Full details and my review is on my blog page. Blurb What does it mean to be a person? In her final year of university, our narrator is struggling to relate to the world around her and find her place within it. Drifting from lectures on gifts, vision, the history of global warming to Louise Bourgeois exhibitions to study groups discussing babies manipulating objects, she finds nothing to further her search for the great revelation she has been promised – except, perhaps, for her budding interest in a fellow student named Luke. Will this relationship bring the understanding of reality she is yearning for, or will Luke turn out to be just as incomprehensible as everything else? #torestourmindandbodies #midas #bookblogger #bookreview #bookstagrammer

Full review is live on my blog page. ✨️ Blurb  Two sisters, a lifetime of secrets, and the chance to set the record straight... Meet Goldie and Vee: sisters, dreamers, grafters. In their forties, both appear to have it all... Until Goldie finds the courage to leave Benedict. Once upon a time, their faux marriage worked, but when the magnetic Wolfie comes on the scene, her world of pretending falls apart. Vee’s neat world is spiralling, too. Since her ex-husband Jamie started dating Juli, her cruel school bully, Vee’s long-buried insecurities are out of control. She needs to get awa and fast. So when Goldie suggests a holiday in France, Vee leaps at the idea. A curiously well-timed invitation - just as speculations around Goldie’s brilliantly brief pop career back in the nineties are beginning to resurface. Escaping’s one thing, but nothing stays secret forever, and as Vee and Goldie’s unresolved pasts make surprise returns, the stories them girls once told themselves begin to look very different... #themgirls #bookblogger #booktour #bookreview #bookstargram

Author: @carolinecorcoranwriter Publisher: Thomas & Mercer @amazonpublishing Publishing Date: 16th March 2026 Many thanks to @TandemCollectiveUK for my physical copy of the book for a read-along book group . Full review is live on my.blog page. Blurb Lily knows every inch of Aurora Island―she came here to disappear. Hidden away, a mile off the mainland, it’s a paradise of beautiful beaches and picture-postcard villages. The perfect place to reinvent yourself. To keep secrets buried. But this summer, women are vanishing―in a chilling alphabetical pattern. First Alice. Then Beccy. Then Corinne. Each disappearance more mysterious than the last, leaving no trace behind. As panic builds on the island, a hit true-crime podcast seizes on the story. Its magnetic host, Ross, arrives with questions, charm, and an agenda no one can quite pin down. For Lily, each new disappearance brings her letter closer. And on Aurora, where some come to hide and others vanish without a trace, time is running out―one woman at a time… #thenextwomen #tandemcollective #tandemcollectiveuk #bookstargram #bookblogger

Author: @author_thomas_enger and @johanagustawsson Publisher: @OrendaBooks Publishing Date: 27th March 2025 Many thanks to the publishing team and @RandomThingsTours for my physical copy of the book and a spot on the tour. Full review is live on my blog page Blurb Everyone here is lying... Expert on body language and memory, and consultant to the Oslo Police, psychologist Kari Voss sleepwalks through her days, and, by night, continues the devastating search for her young son, who disappeared on his birthday, seven years earlier. Still grieving for her dead husband, and trying to pull together the pieces of her life, she is thrust into a shocking local investigation, when two teenage girls are violently murdered in a family summer home in the nearby village of Son. When a friend of the victims is charged with the barbaric killings, it seems the case is closed, but Kari is not convinced. Using her skills and working on instinct, she conducts her own enquiries, leading her to multiple suspects, including people who knew the dead girls well... With the help of Chief Constable Ramona Norum, she discovers that no one – including the victims – are what they seem. And that there is a dark secret at the heart of Son village that could have implications not just for her own son's disappearance, but Kari's own life, too... #bookblogger #bookstargram #orendabooks #sonbook #BookReview

Author: Linda Duncan McLaughlin Publisher: @IntoCreative Publishing Date: 19th February 2026 Many thanks to the publishing team and @RandomThingsTours for my digital copy and a spot on the tour. Full review is live on my blog page Blurb When a troubled woman discovers her birth father was a serial killer, she's forced to confront a terrible question. What if the darkness in her own soul is a direct inheritance from him? Despite having made a promise never to do so, Joanne Marshall sets out to trace her birth parents when her adoptive mother dies. She's always felt unable to connect with other people, even her family, and her lack of history is a black hole that only the truth can fill. Her search unearths increasingly shattering information, however, and when she discovers her birth father was imprisoned for murder - and that he's still alive - she decides she has to contact him to lay her fears about her own nature to rest. But she finds, instead, a strange connection to him. And, as their relationship deepens, she doesn't realise that she's making herself vulnerable to a potentially still very dangerous man. Will she finds the strength to stop another tragedy taking place?
