The Everyday and Far Away by Jacqueline Jones

For fans of Sally Page and Ruth Hogan, comes this heartwarming tale about love, loss and connection. 

Ernie has had three grand passions in his long life: his dear wife Phyllis, a vintage Norton Dominator motorcycle, and his mini-me son, Stephen. Now, as dementia overwhelms Ernie and takes away everything he can remember about the everyday, memories of those far away times remain crystalline and cherished.

His granddaughter Nina, seventeen, is equally at odds with the everyday. Excluded from college for her lack of concentration, it seems a job in her mother’s greengrocers is the best life can ever offer. Endless time stretches bleakly ahead, yet Nina feels she can barely make it to the end of each day.

Until, that is, Nina stumbles upon a surprise which, it turns out, can save both Ernie and herself…

My Review

I literally sobbed, reading this moving and emotional story. I have no real experience of dementia, so reading about it from Ernie’s first person point of view was devastating. As he descends gradually into the ‘far away’, and his ‘everyday’ becomes more remote, we live the experience through his eyes.

The ‘far away’ is when Ernie as a child is living in Liverpool with his mum and dad. He has friends and life is normal. Then his father dies and eventually his mum remarries Alf, a larger than life character who rides a motorbike he calls Liberty. Ernie is obsessed with the bike and Alf teaches him everything he needs to know. But when tragedy strikes the family, Alf takes Ernie to Bromley to start a fruit and veg stall, and it’s here that Ernie meets Phyllis, his wife-to-be, and they eventually have two children Stephen and Susan.

In the other timeline, we follow Ernie’s family in the here and now. Ernie is still married to Phyl, but it’s his granddaughter who is the focus of the story. Nina has ADHD and struggles to concentrate at college. Like with Ernie, we see it from Nina’s point of view and as the reader, we learn a lot. When she is asked to leave, she doesn’t know what to do with her life. She is lost. But when Ernie’s dementia means he has to go into a nursing home, she finds a project that will change her life forever.

At first it’s a bit of a slow burn and I didn’t get into it immediately, but as you get to know the characters, you start to fall in love with them (maybe not Susan so much), and the reveal towards the end is something I will never forget. I’m just glad I was at home when I was reading.

The Last Days of Leda Grey by Essie Fox

A bewitching novel about an enigmatic silent film actress, and the volatile love affair that left her a recluse for over half a century – for fans of Sarah Waters and Tracy Chevalier.

During the oppressive heat wave of 1976, a young journalist, Ed Peters, finds an Edwardian photograph in a junk shop in the Brighton Lanes. It shows an alluring dark-haired girl, an actress whose name was Leda Grey.

Leda Grey is living still, in a decaying clifftop house once shared with a man called Charles Beauvois, a director of early silent film. As Beauvois’ lover and his muse, Leda often starred in scenes where stage magic and trick photography were used to astonishing effect. But while playing a cursed Egyptian queen, the fantasies captured on celluloid were echoed in reality when Beauvois suspected a love affair between Leda and her leading man.

A horrific accident left Leda abandoned and alone for more than half a century – until Ed Peters finds her and hears the secrets of her past, resulting in a climax more haunting than any to be found in the silent films of Charles Beauvois.

My Review

The Fascination was one of my favourite books of 2023, and I’ve just been on the blog tour for Dangerous, so I had to read Essie Fox’s earlier novel The Last Days of Leda Grey. It’s very strange yet compelling and I was soon hooked.

It’s set during the summer heatwave of 1976, when journalist Ed Peters visits a shop in ‘Brightland’ where he encounters the elderly owner, Theo, and for some bizarre reason agrees to call on his sister Leda to check she’s OK. He’s no longer able to see her for health reasons. All Ed has seen is a photo of her when she was a young silent screen starlet.

But all is not well when he arrives at the house, which has no heating. electricity or running water. Leda is now very old and a total recluse. But she seems to trust Ed and is prepared to tell him about her life, her relationship with the controlling film director Charles Beauvois, and his obsessive jealousy of handsome leading man Ivor.

It’s all very Gothic and the lines between fact and fiction are often blurred. I found it very haunting and somewhat unnerving at times. I listened to it as an audiobook, which was a great way to absorb this spellbinding story.

After studying English Literature at Sheffield University, she moved to London where she worked for the Telegraph Sunday Magazine, and then book publishers George Allen & Unwin, before becoming self-employed in the world of art and design. Essie now spends her time writing historical Gothic novels. Her debut, The Somnambulist, was shortlisted for the National Book Awards, and featured on Channel 4’s TV Book Club. The Last Days of Leda Grey, set in the early years of silent film, was selected as The Times Historical Book of the Month.

Blood Axe by Menno Meyjes guest post

Bafta and Academy Award-nominated screenwriter Menno Meyjes’ first novel is the exhilarating and highly original Blood Axe.

Meet Alistair…
Alistair is a Norse-mythology obsessed, neurotic, well-read and deeply unpopular teenage boy. He lives in Staines with his bulimic older sister Belle and their depressive single mother, an Amazon worker and weekend protester of the third runway at Heathrow.

Alistair is in therapy. And he does not fit in with his classmates, ‘normal’ teenagers who bully him for being different. But when he is struggling, Alistair does not pray to God – Alistair prays to the Norse Ull, and in trying to summon him, he accidentally conjures up the formidable Eric Bloodaxe. Erik idiosyncratically adjusts to contemporary living while Alistair and Belle attempt to conceal his identity from their mother.

When Erik abruptly leaves Alistair’s house, Alistair tries to follow him by climbing through the rabbit hole in the base of the oak tree where he prays to Ull. Transported to the tenth century, Alistair meets Erik’s wife – the fearsome sorceress Gunhild and Alistair’s Norse adventures begin…

As we accompany Alistair to and from the tenth century – a world far removed from his suburban house, where Bake Off blares in the background – we also travel with him through the ups and downs of adolescence and his blossoming relationship with Madelon, a Dutch girl from history class.

Vivid and mesmerising, this extraordinary title from Bafta- and Academy Award-nominated screenwriter Menno Meyjes is The Secret Diary of Adrian Mole in the universe of Marvel, by way of Bukowski and Nick Cave.

Pimlico People by Rupert Stanbury

The Goddesses Artemis and Hebe are staying in Central London to obtain a better understanding of the lives of ‘normal’ people.

To their surprise, they soon encounter a plot to blow up a foreign embassy. Add to that a sophisticated operation involving the theft of valuable paintings from a major art gallery, and the two goddesses begin to question what a ‘normal’ life is all about.

Meanwhile, in the Underworld Cerberus encounters another dog who, amazingly, only has one head! How will they get on?

A mixture of Comedy, Fantasy and Criminality, Pimlico People should appeal to readers of Terry Pratchett and Rick Riordan (Percy Jackson).

ALL THE AUTHOR’S ROYALTIES WILL BE GIVEN TO SUPPORT CHARITIES FOR THE HOMELESS

My Review

I was always a fan of Greek Mythology, but this is not how I remember the gods and goddesses! They certainly never dressed up as cleaners to foil an art theft or stayed in posh hotels and travelled around London in a taxi driven by an old cockney with a horse called Bunnykins. Nor did they consort with little people from Lilliput (mixing our myths here) or go round saying ‘ey up’ and ‘Oggie Oggie Oggie’. But that is what Hebe and her sister Artemis have found themselves doing in order to blend in with us mere mortals.

I’m going to stick my neck out here when I say that it’s the underworld that was my favourite part by a chthonic mile. There’s dog Cerberus (woof) with his three heads and a snake’s tail called Audrey and no idea about anything, even though he’s head of ‘security.’ Then one day Charon the boatman brings the ghastly Marchioness and her dog Popsy (woofy), even though Popsy is still very much alive. Hades wants to send her back but Cerberus rather likes her. So does everyone else, so they need to hide her till Persephone returns from Olympus as she’s a dog lover.

Meanwhile, up above, it’s all Chaos (see what I did there), as Hebe and Artemis cause havoc wherever they go. Can they stop an attack on London, plus uncover the secrets of a sophisticated art fraud? With the help of lots of other gods, plus Sir Cedric, his wife Lady Felicity and nosy 10-year-old granddaughter Emily who talks to pelicans, it should all be plain sailing – in theory.

It’s all great fun and bizarre in a good way and I just love Cerberus and Popsy.

The Not So Average Life of Average Jane by Marissa Malson (The Average Jane PI Series Book #1)

Jane Smith used to hate being average. With her mousy hair and watery brown eyes, she blends into the background, easily forgotten.

But that’s exactly what makes her a successful private investigator. While others stand out, Jane goes unnoticed, gathering valuable information along the way.

Her mother, on the other hand, is the complete opposite. She’s the nosy busybody of the neighborhood and always wants Jane to investigate something. This time, it’s their new neighbors who have caught her attention. Despite numerous attempts to meet them, they seem to be hiding something. And according to her mother, anyone who rejects her invitations and welcome cookies has something to hide.

But when Jane investigates the suspicious death of a local man, she realizes the mysterious house next door may hold the answers she’s been searching for. Little does she know, the web she’s about to unravel will also reveal secrets of those closest to her.

With a blend of suspense, intrigue, and wit, this cozy mystery will keep readers on the edge of their seats until the shocking truth is revealed.

My Review

I loved this so much, but it’s totally bonkers. It starts off quite ordinary, and then it goes into the realms of the far-fetched. But who cares, it’s brilliant and hilarious, with our main character Jane and the situations she finds herself in.

Because Jane is our intrepid hero. She’s very forgettable, which means she can hide in plain sight and no-one recognises her or remembers her afterwards. Her mum Carole (also known as Gladys Kravitz, the nosy neighbour – I had no idea who that is), is also quite ordinary. Carole is obsessed with the new neighbours, she is convinced they are up to something illegal, so she tries to draw them out with cookies shaped like footballs, and invitations to dinner.

Jane is currently working for the wife of a man called Keith who was killed in a car accident, but his wife thinks he was murdered. She also believes he was having an affair with a colleague twenty years his junior.

In the meantime Jane meets Max at the convenience store, an old school classmate of her older brother Cam. They hated each other. Regardless, Jane invites Max to a football party at her mum’s house and it all kicks off – literally.

At this point it goes from the sublime to the ridiculous and I just couldn’t stop reading. It’s going to be part of a series with Jane as the main character and I’ll definitely be reading Book 2.

Out of the Dark by Heidi Amsinck (A Jensen Thriller #4)

Out of the Dark: A brand new Jensen thriller from Heidi Amsinck – a must read for 2025

A missing child … a tainted witness … Jensen’s darkest case yet …

Matilde Clausen, 9, vanishes from a crowded playground in the middle of Copenhagen, triggering a frantic search across the city. When a possible link emerges to the disappearance of Lea Høgh, 10, six years ago, DI Henrik Jungersen is thrown back into the nightmare that almost finished his career.

#OutOfTheDark X/Twitter @HeidiAmsinck1 @MuswellPress #RandomThingsTours  @annecater  @RandomTTours  #booktwitter 
Instagram @heidiamsinck @muswellpress @randomthingstours #bookstagram #blogtour

Desperate for redemption, but barred from reopening the old case, Henrik turns to his estranged lover, Dagbladet chief crime reporter Jensen, for help. As the investigation reaches deep into Denmark’s underworld, how will Henrik, Jensen, and her troubled teenage apprentice Gustav, escape the darkness that threatens to engulf them, in time to solve the mystery? What really happened to Lea? And where on earth is Matilde?

My Review

This was definitely the best of the four books so far. It was so exciting that I flew through the last chapters to find out what happened before going to dinner in our hotel. Then afterwards I read the last part again, just to be clear.

We still have most of the characters from the first three books – Jensen’s boss at Dagbladet, editor-in-chief Margrethe Skov, her teenage nephew Gustav (who’s gone back to school now), agoraphobic hacker Fie, and of course married cop, and Jensen’s ex-lover Henrik Jungerson. I love Jensen more and more with each book, in spite of her flaws, but then she accepts them. Not so much Henrik, but I think the description of him makes him sound really unattractive. It’s once again set in Copenhagen.

It’s real seat of your pants stuff – going from Jensen to Henrik and back and forth. We also meet a fascinating lady called Bodil Le Cour, who’s 83 and lives in a block of flats where she claims to have seen a murder. Except no-one believes her including the police, they think she is getting doddery. Doddery she is definitely not. Jensen believes her, but little does she know how complicated it’s all going to turn out to be. And a race against time.

An afterthought. If Jensen ever got married (doubtful), would she keep her last name (probably) because Jensen IS her last name, or change it? Then she could change her first name to Jensen by deed poll. Not sure why this bothers me, but it does!

The Klangaroo by Mark Bird

Two baby kangaroos, one wacky inventor and a gigantic robot have a day at the zoo no one will ever forget!

Genre: Children’s Poetry
Pub: HB Publishing House 
Pages: 40

With no Mummy or Daddy to teach them to hop,
the zoo’s baby joeys just wobble and flop.

Dr Try builds a robot to help them bounce high,
but when things all go wrong
will their bouncing dreams fly?

My Review

This book is hilarious, and like nothing I’ve ever read before. It’s all written in rhyme and the illustrations are a bit bonkers, but I mean that in a good way.

The poetry is clever and entertaining and I know children will love it – this is just the sort of wacky book that will appeal to my (somewhat wacky) nine-year-old granddaughter. I’m not sure if it’s aimed at slightly younger children, but it doesn’t really matter – they’ll love it anyway.

Poor Dr Try is ‘trying’ to help two joeys to sky-bounce without much success. So she builds a robot but unfortunately it just waddles and clangs and falls flat on its face. But the joeys don’t care, ‘You’re like us,’ they cheer,’You’re the best,’ and they love it! It’s called the Klangaroo.

This book is full of joy and fun and will become a firm favourite with children everywhere.

The Night Stalker by Chris Carter (Robert Hunter #3)

An unidentified female body is brought into the Los Angeles County morgue. The cause of death is still unclear.

Her body bares no marks; except for the fact that her most intimate parts have been stitched shut. But what shocks the pathologist the most is that the killer had left something inside her. Something so monstrous Detective Robert Hunter, of the Los Angeles Homicide Special Section, has to be pulled off a different case to take over the investigation.

Within days a new body surfaces. Like the previous victim, she’s also been stitched shut and something has been left inside her. Something as ingenious as it is grotesque. And the killer isn’t done yet, not by a long shot.

Instagram @chriscarterbooksofficial @simonschusteruk  @thebookdealer  #CompulsiveReaders #blogathon #blogtour #bookstagram

When his inquiry collides with a missing persons’ case being investigated by the attractive, razor-sharp Whitney Meyers, Hunter suspects the killer might be keeping several women hostage. Soon Robert finds himself on the hunt for a murderer who is much more monstrous than he ever could have expected; a predator whose past hides a terrible secret, and who won’t stop until each of his victims has brought forth the awful truth.

My Review

Welcome to post number three on this fab #blogathon. I will be reviewing one book per month.

This was a hard read. The idea that these women were intimately violated and stitched up sits very uncomfortably with me. Someone must really hate women, obviously the killer, but why?

Apart from the methods of killing, I really enjoyed the third book in the series. I found the personalities of Hunter and Garcia now more sympathetically portrayed, and their character development is growing with each novel. And I love Whitney Meyers.

I wouldn’t say The Night Stalker was gorier than the previous two books – in fact I’d say that apart from the obvious, it’s less so. In reality, the second murder in The Executioner is ‘probably the grisliest I’ve ever read about’ (as I said in my review of it in March). But this is creepier, insidious, and terrifying all the same.

I feel as though Carter gets better and better with each book. More depth, more insight and we are really starting to like Hunter and Garcia. They are becoming real to me. Roll on Book 4!

About the Author

“Imagine better than the best you know…” So begins the magical teachings in my new novel, The Color Of Dreams, which releases on May 1, 2025. Imagine if a magical visitor came to you with a chance to redeem your life, a chance to make your deepest dream come true. Could you develop the faith to chase your dream one more time? The Color Of Dreams is a story I’ve had inside me for 30 years. Now my dream is finally becoming a reality! I hope it inspires you to not only let your own dream out, but that it helps you shine your light so others can follow it to live their dreams, too.

I’m inspired by books, people, animals, nature…life itself, really. In my last book, The Owner’s Manual To Life, I collected 100 of my favorite quotes and wrote a two-page essay helping to reveal their wisdom. The subtitle of the book, “Simple Strategies to Worry Less and Enjoy Life More” sums up the intent of the book. Who doesn’t want to enjoy life more? Here a few of my favorite quotes from the book:

“Happiness is pretty simple—someone to love, something to do, something to look forward to.” –Rita Mae Brown

“We don’t need more to be thankful for, we need to be more thankful.”

“Formula for failure: try to please everyone.”

“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives.” –Annie Dillard

If you’re looking for a book to help you find the joy in this remarkable world, to help you look beyond the occasional darkness, then check it out. I guarantee it will help you become kinder to yourself, and it will help you rediscover the point and purpose of life: to help others.

Lastly, I encourage you to visit my website, https://michaelzbooks.com/ and sign up for the quotes I send out each Wednesday. Also, you’ll find my email address there; I encourage you to send me some of your favorites as well. I always enjoy the wisdom other people have inside of them.

Until then, remember what Ruth Ann Schabacker said: “Each day comes bearing its own gifts. Untie the ribbons.”

All Our Yesterdays by Guy Hale

Act I I Stratford-upon-Avon, spring 1932

Six years after a fire destroyed the Royal Shakespeare Theatre, a new troupe of actors is taking Stratford by storm. But offstage, Felix Richards suspects something is rotten in the state of Denmark.

Read Along: 28th March – 29th April
Genre: Crime Fiction
Publisher: The Bullington Press

Morris Oxford feels he needs no introduction, he’s the greatest actor of a generation. The theatre means everything to him but his talent is tainted by the depths of his ambition.

All Our Yesterdays takes us back to where it all began. The stage is set but uneasy lies the head that wears the crown.

My Review

So finally after four weeks of answering questions related to the book, here we go with the review.

All Our Yesterdays takes us back to the beginning of the Morris Oxford Players. Morris himself is a vile character. He has no moral compass. He’s only interested in furthering his career. He’s a selfish narcissist who sets out to destroy the careers of anyone who steals his limelight, the main one being so-called friend Richard. He systematically destroys his career, his marriage and finally his mental health.

Felix is the narrator. He’s not quite as bad, but he claims Richard is his best friend, yet he stands back and allows it all to happen. I never knew there was so much intrigue at the RSC.

In The Croaking Raven, we met Richard’s son Oliver (assumed to be the killer) and Felix. All Our Yesterdays explains the reasons for Oliver’s revenge spree, and at times I can’t say I blame him (though his methods are rather extreme!). This is the second book in the trilogy – the third book is coming soon.
