Book Recommendations
A few more book recommendations from my recent reading:
A Wedding For The Bomber Girls by Vicky Beeby
I relished being back with Vicki Beeby’s Bomber Girls. Reading this book was like re-joining old friends and I loved the ups and downs and ins and outs of the story.
Pearl, Thea and Jenny definitely go through the emotional ringer in this book and it brought home some realities about what life must have actually been like in the war, even planning a wedding or getting a wedding dress was not straightforward. The bomber crews must have had terrible anxieties and flashbacks and felt such relief when they had completed the required number of missions.
Vicki Beeby has such a lovely way of writing that reading is effortless and flowing. I will admit to not wanting to stop at the end of the chapters and to often sneaking off to read when I should have been doing other things. Can’t wait for the next one.
Vicki is featured on my blog next week. Link to book on Amazon here.
The French Cookery School by Caroline James
I loved Caroline James’ The Cruise, but I think I like The French Cookery School even more. The author draws on her extensive knowledge of recipes and celebrity chefs for this title and I found that I wanted to be included as a guest at some of the meals described.
It took me a few chapters to get to grips with the many characters in this book but once I had, I loved living the cookery school students experiences in France at the exclusive La Maison du Paradis the venue for the course.
The characters of this novel rapidly get under your skin with their own unique back stories adding to the action. I found myself wishing I was as flamboyant as Fran, although I think if I could choose I would be Sally with a healthy dose of Fran thrown into the mix.
A thoroughly enjoyable read, but just to warn you – it may make you hungry with all the talk about food.
Caroline is featured on my blog very soon. Link to book on Amazon here.
Under A Summer Skye by Sue Moorcroft
I have been a fan of Sue Moorcroft’s novels for a long time and loved this the first in her new Skye Sisters series.
A tale of complex relationships, past secrets and true modern life problems. As usual in a Sue Moorcroft story, there are also some serious issues raised such as drinking, adoption and internet bullies. I thoroughly enjoyed this read, even if Sue did keep me on tenterhooks and reading on frantically waiting for the big bombshell to drop.
Loved the Isle of Skye setting, was on Thea’s side from page one and didn’t want Deveron to lose the chance of a relationship with her (although I think I might have been less forgiving than she is in the novel). Even related to the dog, Daisy and her part in the book.
Now can’t wait to read the rest of the series.
