So there we go, just a few this month. Any that you have read or now want to read? Let me know in the comments below.
Nice. I’m particularly looking forward to your reviews of the Tim Hannigan and Corinne Fowler so I can add them to my wishlist, hopefully! I am working my way through my January TBR although read one review book too early in error and need to schedule my review for later!
Green Unpleasant Land is grim but essential reading. I really am going to get to Hannigan’s book this month. It has been languishing on my reading shelf for far too long
