What a way to start the New Year with @jenniegauthor.bsky.social TLOST PB storming into the bestseller charts at no 3!
Delighted to finally be able to announce that THE LIST OF SUSPICIOUS THINGS @jenniegauthor.bsky.social is Waterstones BOM for January. A wonderful way to start 2025!
This is my last book of 2024. A novel about a woman who's best friend - a politician's wife - has two step-children who randomly & frequently catch fire. Unexpectedly pacy, complex & emotional. I took a risk on this but it paid off in full.
I have read 116 books in 2024 not for work. There have been so many I have enjoyed or loved but these are the ones which clawed their way into my heart & which I'd foist on anyone and everyone.
Part 2
My first foray into reading outside of my comfort zone with Hitchikerd Guide to the Galaxy. Obvs this is just my opinion as someone who is trying to broaden their reading experience. No shade intended.
Part 1
If you have not read this memoir I implore you from the bottom of my heart to do so. It is the kind of book that not only reminds me why I want to work with authors, but how stories can truly save lives as well as change them.
Part 2 of 2
Starting some new reading habits - pushing myself outside of my comfort zone. Welcome to the Uncomfortable Book Club.
Part 1 of 2
"I was sitting in a taxi, wondering if I had overdressed for the evening, when I looked out the window and saw Mom rooting through a Dumpster." The opening line grabbed me & the rest of the book held me. This may be nearly 20x years old but it's power does not wane.
This novel has been overwhelmed with riches this year - not least being the top selling debut of 2024 but now to add to this would be Crime Fiction Lover's debut winner in their annual awards. Congratulations @jenniegauthor.bsky.social crimefictionlover.com/2024/12/the-...
Extremely late to this party but so glad I succumbed. Perfect love story for these cold and wintry nights & I can't stop thinking about Rose & Will. @ClaireDaverley is a wonderful writer. 💔
It's nearly that time of year for each of us at @RMLagency to pick our fave read of 2024. These are my absolute ride or die loves this year & it's going to be tough to narrow down. Which has been your fave?
I am beaming to see this! Well done @jenniegauthor.bsky.social you star
woo hoo Bryony Gordon. What fun we had on tour with this marvellous book earlier this year. Congrats to you! #madwoman
Thrilled to see Bryony Gordon's MAD WOMAN as one of Amazon's top 10 NF books of 2024: www.amazon.co.uk/amazoneditor...

My reading list for the rest of this year. Some are a re-read and some are totally new. All of them are indicative of an omnivorous taste & I'm hoping to surprise myself with what I enjoy.
Thrilled to see @jenniegauthor.bsky.social The List of Suspicious Things on @bertsbooks.bsky.social 2024 list of best books
Congratulations to @sarahbrooks.bsky.social on Cautious Traveller on being @data.ft.com top books of 2024: www.ft.com/content/1c7e...
The Grapevine @katekemp.bsky.social is out in 2025 and she's already making waves speaking about this fantastic debut
Read it and loved it!
Very excited about this event coming for Lizzie Damilola Blackburn next year @waterstones.bsky.social for The Re-Write, her follow up novel after the acclaimed debut Yinka, Where is Your Huzband?
Already read it!
Genuinely fell for this book and never thought it would be one for me. But great for these cold nights and dark afternoons. I'm looking for more book recommendations so please send some!!
