Book Reviews

‘The best moments in reading are when you come across something - a thought, a feeling, a way of looking at things - which you had thought special and particular to you. And now, here it is, set down by someone else, a person you have never met, someone even who is long dead. And it is as if a hand has come out, and taken yours.’ Alan Bennett

“Many a book is like a key to unknown chambers within the castle of one’s own self.” ― Franz Kafka

Thanks and Apologies

I apologise for the lack of new blog posts this week. It's troubling me, but I have found myself unable to focus on reading or writing coherent reviews. Without going into details, I've been struggling with my illness recently and feeling worse than usual at times... 


I just wanted to post this in the meantime, to say thank you, to Kate at Me, My Books and I, and to Barbara at March House Books, for these two lovely blog awards which my blog received recently. Both are very gratefully received and very much appreciated. I will try and pass them on fully when possible.






Reviews are coming up as soon as I feel brighter and can get myself focused on writing them.
All the best.
