Very good. Josie Silver just keeps on getting better and better. This book is full of passion, romance and heartache. Wonderful writing that just flows throughout and makes you feel part of the scene, not just reading it on a page. The characters are so relatable and well written. Thank you #Penguin for inviting me to read this via #Netgalley.

Good. A compelling thriller that makes you feel like you are with the characters rather than just reading about them. The story just flows and I couldn't put this down. Thank you #Penguin for inviting me to read this via #Netgalley.

Very good. Informative and fast paced. Even though going into this book I only had a basic knowledge of the queens I left with a full knowledge which is a testament to the work of Alison Weir. Thank you #Penguin #RandomHouse for inviting me to read this via #Netgalley.

Good. Even though it took a long time for it to get going the pace does pick up and even though it does the ending just comes so suddenly that it just feels rushed. Also even though the setting is at Christmas and set during a production of A Christmas Carol it can be read during the whole year as it doesn't really give Christmas vibes.

I first picked up Jane Eyre for a uni course, and I wish we had to read this book as part of it too.

It gave me so much to think about, and while it is a different style and tone to Brontë, I think it helps make the story and the characters of Rochester and “Bertha” that much more interesting.

Finished in a day too, so that‘s a bonus!

KathyWheeler I loved this book and loved getting a story about what might have turned Bertha into the madwoman in the attic. (edited) 2y

Very good. This story takes you on journey that is full of twists and turns. Even though you might think that you have worked out who has done it you will be surprised by the end. It also deals with the question of what love truly is and what you would do for it. Thank you #MichaelJoseph/#Penguin for inviting me to read this via #Netgalley.

Good. Another wonderful story from Emily Henry. Shows how we can stereotype certain types of books and that we should look beyond the cover. The characters are so well written and you are willing them along their journey all the way through.
Also you can see just how much this author loves books as the way that she writes about how readers behave and how they get captivated by the world of books and everything to do with it.

Good. Even though at times the main character was slightly annoying she redeems herself in the end and you are rooting for her to find her destiny whatever that might be. Nice romantic comedy and a nostalgia for many classic films. Thank you #Penguin for inviting me to read this via #Netgalley.
