Dreams Come True at the Wartime Hotel by Maisie Thomas #Review

With the tide of the war turning and victory on the distant horizon, Kitty is keen to keep her independence once the men come home.

October 2017 and still here!


Well it's now two years since I started this blog so I thought I really should update About Me, just so you know I'm still around! 

The blog has changed quite  a lot since I started it, I'd say. Mainly, I'm featuring lots of new and contemporary books of all genres. I've discovered the joys of Blog Tours and this has squeezed out some of my other reading. I just need to try to get the balance back and I'll be happy.

It's been great to get to know people in the blogging world- virtually- and I'm still thrilled that I've been able to have guest posts from authors. I've found independent publishers who are so inspiring- especially the wonderful Orenda Books which is my favourite.

If you're an author reading this, do get in touch. If I haven't got time to read your book, I'm always happy to feature you on Meet the Author.  The same goes for anyone with any links to the publishing world. It would be fantastic to let readers in on your working life.

I also have a blog about Children's Books which you can find over at  Cat and Mouse Reading...

 Children's authors- do get in touch at catandmousereading@gmail.com.

All for now and happy reading!

One last thing- I've always blogged as Marianne but my real name is Pam so you will see that from now on.
