My Greek Books--October 2026 Reads is out! Check out my latest book reviews! mariakaramitsos.com/2026/10/…

My dearest Jeffrey… This is news I wasn’t expecting to wake up to hear, I thought this day was a long way off, you seemed utterly invincible. Thank you for the brutal pep talks and writing advice, thank you for telling me I was unbelievably bossy and for telling my husband I reminded you of Margaret Thatcher, and thank you for your gift of storytelling. Your final novel is astonishing- as you quite rightly told me it would be before I’d even read it! I’m heartbroken you won’t see it fly around the world as it was always going to. You were one of the most generous people with your time, care and energy, an outrageous flirt, filled with mischief, a font of knowledge and an utterly devoted family man. Dearest Dame Mary, how you loved her and your boys and grandchildren. I will miss our banter and chats about politics, Lord Archer- which irritated you beyond measure when I called you that. Thank you for always being unapologetically you.

Novel set in KARDAMYLI (Peloponnese) tripfiction.com/novel-set-in… Beneath the Orange Blossom by Emma Cowell @EmmaCowellBooks "A delightfully engaging story that will transport and keep the reader hooked.." @avonbooks

Reeling in the years!… #Greece @emmacowellbooks

Is anyone suddenly getting messages from folks saying they’ve been nominated for something with a link to vote? I’ve had the same DM from three different people and I hate to be cynical but I’m scared to click the link but I also want to support…. What the X is occurring!!?

All I'm saying is, I can't be held accountable for any ordering I do whilst I'm living through the apocalypse 🥵 @EmmaCowellBooks @MitchAlbom @Donna_ashworth @BearGrylls @helenphifer1 @robertdugoni
