Very lucky to get an early look at Identity Crisis, the new book from the fabulous Nicola Gill Funny and moving is a difficult trick to pull off but she manages it effortlessly. Full of heart, humanity and some very bad decisions! Loved it. Bedford Square Publishers TheD20Authors

Fantastic night at The Exchange North Shields listening to Lisa Jewell being interviewed by Trevor Wood . Thank you to everyone including Vic Watson-Logan #baytales26 for a great night🎉🎉

It was great to celebrate two great books and two great authors today. The Red Shore by William Shaw and The Invisible Man by Trevor Wood. With Jane Wood Lesley Thomson 📚📚📚 #TheMysteryofYewTreeHouse Graham Bartlett and Sophie Ranson Daunt Books

Brilliant launch for these two giants of the genre last night Trevor Wood & William Shaw. Took no photos but DID get called a star twice in one night which was worth the trip. Great to see some Brighton & Hove peeps too. Thanks for a great night #TheInsideMan #TheRedShore

Thoroughly enjoyed this compelling debut from Frances Crawford, another addition to the brilliant crime writing coming out of Scotland now, gritty with two unique voices and an authentic working-class feel, it's sure to be on the prize lists next year. A.M. Heath Penguin Random House 🐧🏠📚

Look out for the superb #TheHouseOfFallenSisters by Louise Hare, which vividly captures the mean streets of 18th century London in a rivetingly dark tale of sisterhood, survival and hope through the eyes of its fabulously resilient young narrator, Sukey HQ Stories TheD20Authors

After loving Dark Island I had to grab the sequel asap! Happy to report that The Dying Light is a brilliant follow-up. Freya is a fabulously flawed protagonist, reckless, morally compromised and brave as a lioness. Hats off Daniel Aubrey, you’ve done it again! HarperNorth

Was lucky to sneak away from Harrogate with Stuart Neville #BloodLikeMine’s Blood Like Ours, the sequel to my favourite book of 2024, Blood Like Mine. It’s bloody wonderful! Great characters, stunning writing and a glorious ending which I hope means there’s more to come! Katherine Armstrong

Big thanks to Fiona Sharp for recommending The Story of a Heart by Dr Rachel Clarke. If only she had recommended buying a mop and bucket for all the tears I’ve cried reading it.
