Bethr1986 (305 KP) rated The Anarchist's Wife in Books
Jan 8, 2023
Independent Reviewer for Archaeolibrarian - I Dig Good Books!
I found this novella extremely interesting. There was a lot of information to take in. It's been written from the wife's point of view and you can't seem to work out 100% for guilty or innocent. My first instinct is yep, of course, he's guilty, he's bound to be but then there are little things that could say he's innocent.
I've enjoyed reading this and recommend you read it too.

Thought-provoking and always-changing questions (3 more)
Customizable to your priorities and things you want to improve upon
Niche communities to join
Safe and free of creeps and unwanted interactions
A safe space for deep thoughts
Longwalks has been my favorite non-traditional social media apps I've found (though I'd hardly call it social.media - the focus isn't on your profile/profile picture etc.). Check in every day to keep a streak going, answer sometimes silly/sometimes serious prompts about your life (choose to keep your answers private, post anonymously, or publicly), and get bonus insightful questions when you join groups relevant to you. I've yet to have an uncomfortable or negative interaction and the vulnerability of everyone's answers is beautiful.

Bethr1986 (305 KP) rated Fire Wave (Fire Wave #1) in Books
Mar 19, 2022
Aiyana is intrigued by an attack that has happened on a chemical company so goes to investigate, gets a bit spooked but gets something to look further into to discover what has caused the attacks. Then the building she works in is attacked. That is only the start of the adventure!
I found this story took me a bit to get into, but once I got there I was able to wiz through it quite quickly. There is a lot of action from the get-go and a lot of cool characters.
The seem like they should belong to one of the 2 major graphic novel producers. Extremely intriguing.
Definitely recommend you read this

Bethr1986 (305 KP) rated His Lordship's Secret (His Lordship’s Mysteries #1) in Books
Mar 28, 2022
Lord Crawford has got somebody trying to assassinate him so in a desperate attempt he hires a bodyguard after watching him in a boxing match and he seems familiar. He finds his long lost friend and the reason why somebody wants him dead!
This is a lovely written story the way the friendship blooms after the time they've had apart is fantastic. Some fights occur and I found myself wincing, to be honest, it's that well written. The sex scenes aren't coarsely written they are graphic but beautiful in a way the connection they have is amazing.
It really was a shock who was attempting to murder Alfie and why!
Definitely suggest you read it

Emma (519 KP) rated The Manningtree Witches in Books
Jul 9, 2023
When I first started this book I was slightly dubious as to whether I would be able to finish it or not.
I found the writing style quite difficult at first, you can tell the author has previously written books of poetry.
After a few chapters though I was swept into the story, I desperately wanted to find out what happened to Rebecca west and the others. Ultimately it is a bitter sweet ending, but that was probably obvious from the start given the history of the witch trials. I congratulate the author on giving the characters such depth and bringing them back to life for their stories to be told again. #akblakemore

Hazel (2934 KP) rated Murder in the Family in Books
Jul 23, 2023
I really enjoy Cara Hunter's Adam Fawley series so was eager to read this, a standalone thriller but, unfortunately, whilst I enjoyed the story, I liked the characters (although not many were likeable!) and I really enjoyed the mystery of who did the deed, I wasn't overly keen on the writing format which I found quickly became tedious due to the scene setting rather than focusing on the actual story.
Despite my misgivings on the style, I did like the twists and turns and, like I said, overall I enjoyed it and I thank HarperCollins UK, Harperfiction and NetGalley for enabling me to read and share my thoughts of Murder in the Family.
