Free holidays start with chapter one. Just turn the page and leave the World behind BookBlogger using NetGalley and, when lucky, Edelweiss

I’m currently listening to The Correspondent by Virginia Evans on my daily commute to work. I didn’t know what to expect but certainly didn’t imagine I would be crying in the work’s car park at 7:47 this morning. It’s absolutely brilliant and I can’t recommend it enough.

Each night when we go to bed, I toss a handful of Dreamies for a bedtime treat for the cats. Would you care to hazard a guess to their usual landing spot…
