Current Reads

At the moment I’m reading On the Savage Side by Tiffany McDaniel, which is a very sad read but so beautifully written. I want to read this one slowly but I’m totally engrossed in it. I’m also still reading Show Me the Bodies: How We Let Grenfell Happen by Peter Apps and am finding this so interesting but also very anger-inducing at all the missed chances to prevent Grenfell happening.

Recent Reads

I’ve had such a good week of reading this week and have read so many books. First I read In My Dreams I Hold a Knife by Ashley Winstead, which I loved. You do need to suspend disbelief and the characters aren’t particularly likeable but it’s such a compulsive read! Then I read The Trap by Catherine Ryan Howard all in one day as I just couldn’t put it down, it was so good! Next I devoured The Only One Left by Riley Sager, which I loved for about 75% but then it all got very ridiculous and it required way too much suspension of disbelief. I’m still not sure how to rate it though! I finished Friendaholic by Elizabeth Day and am conflicted on this one. The chapter on infertility and how that affects friendships, and also the one about when a friend dies really spoke to me but the rest of it felt very surface-level and a bit far away from most people’s experiences of friendship. After that I started and finished Zero Days by Ruth Ware, which was so fast-paced and I literally didn’t put it down from when I picked it up to when I turned the last page! Yesterday I finished listening to my audiobook of Clutter: An Untidy History by Jennifer Howard, which was an interesting look at how it is to deal with a parent’s clutter and then your own. I enjoyed it. Then I read the new Fiona Cummins novel All Of Us Are Broken, which was gruesome and heart-pounding and genuinely an edge of seat reading experience but I loved it!

What I Might Read Next

I think this week I’m most drawn to reading Going Deaf for a Living by Steve LaMacq, which is on my 20 Books of Summer list and I’m keen to pick up as I’m partway through listening to a documentary about BritPop on BBC Sounds. I also want to read I Did For You by Amy Engel and Good Bad Girl by Alice Feeney from my NetGalley shelf.

What are you reading at the moment? I’d love to know 🙂
