My 8 Most Read Reviews of 2023

This was a new one for me last year, but I do love a good list. These books were not necessarily published in 2023 – in fact Miss Benson’s Beetle has been top for the last three years.

Miss Benson’s Beetle by Rachel Joyce
There’s hardly a day goes by when someone doesn’t visit this review and I am not sure how or why. It was published in 2021 but it’s still top by a mile.

The Twyford Code by Janice Hallett
Again this is visited constantly. It’s a great book but it wasn’t one of my favourites, as to really appreciate the book you have to play along and I don’t want to work that hard!

It All Comes Back To You by Beth Duke
I didn’t love this as much as Tapestry, but it was certainly well visited when I posted it in 2021, and still is.

Twelve Secrets by Robert Gold (Ben Harper Book 1)
No idea why this is so high. It was really good but then so are a lot of other books which don’t figure in this list at all.

Afraid of the Christmas Lights by various
A random anthology which I reviewed in 2020. Again no idea though it does feature some very well-known authors.

Lessons in Chemistry by Bonnie Garmus
No surprises there. One of the most read books of the year, which has been turned into a TV series.

The Witch Farm Podcast by Danny Robins
Delighted this is so high as it’s a podcast and it deserves the recognition. Go Danny!

Geneva by Richard Armitage
The day I posted my review, the stats went berserk. And this is an audiobook – one of my first reviews of one. But then who doesn’t love Richard Armitage and the narration is just brilliant.
