A lil wyrmy dragon art doll lays curled up, looking to the right. Their face is cheeky, white with silver horns and pine-green scales. Their body is ivory, with silver sparkle and evergreen stripes.

I’m on the tour today with @gilbster1000.bsky.social and @ianwmcfadyren for the gripping Blood Matters.

A highly entertaining crime read that gripped me from the beginning.

Hi I’m Susie a book lover and reviewer from just outside Glasgow 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿. I read quite widely but crime/thrillers have a special place in my heart! When I’m not reading I love to travel, listen to podcasts, hang out with my family, and drink cocktails (Espresso Martini please 🍸)

Sign up to the Bert’s Books Secret Santa by 30th November, and pick a book you'd like to gift to someone else.

I'll work out the best person to send that book to - and in return you'll get a book to unwrap too!

Well I've been busy decorating my Christmas Tree today! Not completely sure I'm happy with it, but that could just be because I'm sure my tree has less branches each year!
A view of my newly decorated Christmas Tree, showcasing purple, silver, gold baubles and a whole bunch of decorations I've picked up across the world over the years!

Apparently I am now here too! Not entirely sure why, but clearly FOMO, and being a good bookish sheep, I'm following the crowd!

I book review on Rachel's Random Reads and love reading all things romance and also thrillers etc..
