IT's cute and fun, steamy and smexy!
Independent reviewer for Archaeolibrarian, I was gifted my copy of this book.
Danny's ex left a box of toys. Danny isn't quite sure what to do with them, so he approaches said ex's best friend to see if he knows who they might belong to. Will just wants a quiet night, but spending time with Danny will do. Then Danny springs his dilemma on him and Will makes his mind up to help Danny.
What I did not like about this book was that it was short! Short on page space: only 90 odd pages and short on time: whole book takes place over couple days.
What I loved about this was it was short! Contradictory, I know! I loved that we get this short burst, because I really don't think it would've worked as a longer book. But I still didn't like that it was short, as I wanted more of Danny and Will!
It's cute, it's funny, it's steamy and smexy but it carries some emotion too. Especially for Danny finding out about his ex and about said ex was doing. Will was shocked by his so called best friend!
A thoroughly enjoyable 4 star read.

Poetry about life
Molly Naylor writes poetry about her life. Some of it is really funny, some very insightful. She calls it "a manifesto of my life" and a confession of sorts.
I saw Molly perform many of her poems in this collection on a "Poetry Pub Crawl" (I feel that this may be a very British phenomenon, and if you're British and have never experienced one, then go out and find one! They're great fun!) at the Chester Literature Festival. She really was great and the reason I bought her book was exactly her ability to get her message across through her poetry. Being a grown up isn't easy!

Another great Discworld book
I wasn't too sure about the Rincewind books when I first started, but he really is growing on me. Like The Light Fantastic before it, Sourcery is completely bonkers and moves on at an incredible pace. As with all Discworld books, it's very funny in parts and I love the fact that yet again I've found myself laughing out loud whilst reading. My only criticism would be that I don't believe some of the supporting characters have been quite as good as those from other books like Twoflower, the Luggage didn't seem as prevalent as it did in the past. Still a great entertaining read though.

Fun Search for Mommy
A new baby bird is about to hatch. Knowing her baby will be hungry, the mother bird goes looking for food for him, but he hatches while she is gone. He immediately sets out to find his mother. Will he succeed?
This is a book my whole family remembers with fondness from when I was a kid. The pictures are fun, and the story is straightforward and funny with a heartwarming ending. Most of the words will be very easy for early readers, and a couple of the more unfamiliar words they should be able to sound out with a little adult help.

Something a bit different!
A real laugh out loud read! One of those "it's funny because it's true!"
I think that most mum's can relate to most of this book and can appreciate the sarcasm and fun behind the main character.
Would recommend for any parent or soon to be parent, I don't have children but I still found this highly amusing and relatable!
Warning - do not read or listen to when you are in public by yourself and you will look like a crazy person when you randomly burst into fits of laugher! Also don't recommend reading while drinking tea... unless you want it to come out of your nose!

Mark @ Carstairs Considers (2498 KP) rated A Vicky Hill Exclusive! (Vicky Hill, #1) in Books
Mar 9, 2018
Vicky Hill is trying to make a name for herself in journalism, but she's stuck in a small English village. Fortunately, she stumbles on a strange case involving a dead hedge jumper and chickens. Can she figure things out? The plot hooked me early and kept me going, which is a good thing considering how much I hated Vicky. She kept spinning wild theories that any sane person would dismiss. And her obsession with losing her virginity wasn't nearly as funny as it was supposed to be.
