Book Display Posters As you may know, I volunteer in the book department at my local St Barnabas charity shop. Every week I change the display and yesterday I made some posters for the next few week’s displays. Today I’m doing an author spotlight display […]
The Wonder It’s been a while since I read my first novel by Emma Donoghue. It was called Room and I finished it in a day because I just couldn’t put it down. I saw The Wonder in the book shop while we were on […]
Tell No One I think it was last year when I watched The Five on TV. It was based on a Harlan Coben book and I really enjoyed it. While we were on holiday we went to every charity shop we passed to see what […]
