Murder Worth the Weight is brilliant. There are many twists and turns to keep you guessing who the murderer is, which I love.
It also calls to me, I'm a large woman and this strikes a cord. The thoughts, feelings, situations etc are like they've been plucked from my mind and that's what really sets the scene. You feel included.
Camarin is relatable, she's like so many people who have been pressured into trying to attain perfection, having ridiculous standards pushed at them and being held accountable for someone else. It's quite heartbreaking.
Acceptance and self-love are big themes, along side the murders, of course. Well worth a few cuppas and some chocolate biscuits sat in your comfy seat.

The Greatest Showman starts as it means to go on with a fantastic musical opener that pulls you into the world of Barnum and the delights of the big top, then it takes you back to a young Barnum and the poverty that his father and he had to endure.

The film is really enjoyable, and what colour-orientated aspects to it worked really well (the "white town" made me chuckle when I saw it).
The principal cast are all excellent, and I actually found the group of villains to be the most enjoyable to watch (the train heist is great).
Gory, entertaining and often heartfelt, I'd recommend giving it a watch. There aren't any lulls, there are a few twists, and the action is really well-paced and choreographed.

Cage of Bones ( Brennan & Esposito book 3)
By Tania Carver
⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
Workers demolishing a building in Colchester make a horrifying discovery in the basement: a cage made of human bones ...with a feral child inside. As Phil Brennan and Marina Esposito investigate, they expose the trail of a serial killer who has been operating undetected for thirty years - a killer with a disturbing connection to Brennan's father.
I absolutely love this author duo! You know it’s a good book when you get that itchy feeling towards the end! This was a gruesome idea for a book but then they never disappoint. Just brilliant I just have no more words I highly recommend.
