The Seventh Body by Catherine Kirwan | Review

The Seventh Body by Catherine Kirwan (Hachette Ire) is a fabulously executed crime novel, an absolute cracker of a read.

Couldn't agree more with Michael Moynihan - having been in the beautiful DLR Lexicon library in Dun Laoghaire a few times for @murderonefest.bsky.social festival I think #Cork deserves a library of equally as high a standard. Let us please do the right thing by the city 📚

World Central Kitchen has run out of food to serve in Gaza. Its bakery ("recently the last working bakery in Gaza") is out of flour. There are 100,000+ tons of food in staging areas within driving distance of Gaza, and Israel refuses to let them in wck.org/news/gaza-up...

World Central Kitchen | WCK Forced to Halt Cooking in Gaza as Supplies Run Out

After serving more than 130 million total meals and 26 million loaves of bread over the past 18 months, World Central Kitchen no longer has the supplies to cook meals or bake bread in Gaza.

Common sense from Sarah Harte in @irishexaminer.bsky.social

Sarah Harte: Why are we letting the richest men in the world steal our ideas?

I might be a Luddite when it comes to AI, but writers' work should not be stolen, no matter who's doing it
