The Major’s Daughter by JP Francis
Greetings Bookworms, I don’t know what’s going on with me lately, but I feel like Grumpy Pants McGee. I’m not sure if it’s just a bit of a summer slump or if I’m slowly morphing into an old man who yells at kids to get off his lawn. Probably the latter, if only I had… Read more »
My Very First Author Event: Jo Baker
Happy Friday Bookworms! You’ll recall that last week I was raving about Longbourn by Jo Baker (review). It’s essentially Pride and Prejudice from the servants’ perspective, and it’s pretty great.

Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo
Zdravsvtvuyte Bookworms! That was a Russian greeting, because I’m all about setting the scene, and I recently finished reading Shadow and Bone by Leigh Bardugo. I’m not hugely into YA fiction, but I read an article on Book Riot last year and the series landed on my radar. Kit Steckliener wrote the piece, and I typically trust… Read more »

Howdy Bookworms! Today I’m FAMOUS. Annabel Smith (half of the duo behind the glorious Six Degrees of Separation meme) has interviewed me on her blog! Here’s the link. Leave a comment while you’re there so Annabel doesn’t think I’m a total fraud, okay? Thank you my little worms!
