Haven't read that one yet.

[Lisa]

Just popping on (hello!) to say that the three Philip Pullman His Dark Materials books are 99p on Amazon Kindle today. And they are excellent.

So excited about the forthcoming new installment, as well as the TV series (if it ever actually happens), which should be much better than the mediocre film!

[Paul]

Hope you're well Lisa

Oh good - I hadn't heard that there was going to be a new Dark Materials book.

There is Joy : La Belle Sauvage

Uprooted by Naomi Novik is 99p today. Really enjoyed this as it is a different sort of fantasy

[Paul]

The Invisible Library and Uprooted are both 99p on kindle today, particularly liked Naomi Novik's book

[Jason]

Silent Fear is currently free on Amazon. This was the last book I read, very entertaining if you like a good whodunit.

[Rebecca]

Thanks for the tip Jason, just downloaded it

[Pat]

Nope. But we both like To the Lighthouse.

[Jason]

Amazing bargain here. Where the Wild Winds Are: Walking Europe's Winds from the Pennines to Provence is down to 99p.

https://www.amazon.co.uk/dp/B071DTQ22...

[Paul]

Very good it is too

[Jason]

Been on my amazon wishlist since this chap called Paul started reading it.

[Paul]

His first is good too; after that read the books it is based on.

[Cathy]

Just spotted that In Patagonia is 99p on Kindle today and snapped it up.

[Paul]

Thank you Cathy. Someone mentioned in a FB group I am in, and I had meant to come on and say, and got waylaid with other stuff

[Anna]

I'm always getting waylaid with other stuff too, Paul. I miss quite a lot but then I'm not sure I could cram anything more in to my life anyway!

[Catherine]

The Hummingbird Bakery Cookbook is 99p today for all you bakers out there. I already have a hardback copy and can verify that the spiced pound cake is excellent!

[Catherine]

Yup thanks Cathy, I forgot to post that one, didn't forget to purchase it though!

[Catherine]

Also at 99p today is Why We Sleep: Unlocking the Power of Sleep and Dreams, which I would have thought would be a short book. Page 1. We sleep because we get tired. Page 2. The end.

I only mention this one because this is supposed to be a bestseller.

I think I would need some proof of how good this cake is.

I reserved a copy from the library. If it is no good it can go back!

I am making one this week as it happens. I'll send you a picture of me enjoying eating it!

[Paul]

That reminds me of a friend who always posts pictures of empty plates saying how delicious it was...

Ooh thanks Catherine. It's still 99p today. I don't normally buy cookery books on Kindle but I'm making an exception for this one because we all need more cake to get us through February...

[Catherine]

That is so true Cathy!

[Paul]

The definition of being an adult is knowing that you can have cake without it being a special occasion

[Jo]

I can concur that the Hummingbird Book is fab, we also have it! I've not quite mastered how one uses a recipe book when it is an e-book - I did buy one last week for the first time (The Roasting Tin: Simple One Dish Dinners) so am going to try and find out soon!

I got this as well - have heard so much about it.

[Catherine]

At 99p on Amazon today is The Plague and which is one of my 5 star reads

Also at 99p is SPQR: A History of Ancient Rome

[Catherine]

Although double checking the SPQR doesn't appear at 99p on Amazon but at £3.29, which although I am sure is a bargain considering all the hours Mary Beard must have poured into the book along with her knowledge, is still not the 99p that was advertised to me.

[Catherine]

The Reluctant Fundamentalist is at 99p today on Amazon.

[Catherine]

A Town Like Alice is 99p on amazon today, which is typical as I just read it from the library.

Also at 99p today is Brighton Rock

Both of which I can highly recommend.

[Jason]

How Not to Travel the World: Adventures of a Disaster-Prone Backpacker is 99p on kindle today.

Homegoing - 99 p today, one of my best of last year.

Reasons to Stay Alive is 99p on Amazon kindle today. The author is the same who wrote the excellent The Humans.

[Paul]

He follows me on twitter Catherine!

[Catherine]

Ah, well I think he sounds like a lovely person. I'll be buying his book on Amazon.

[Paul]

He has Notes on a Nervous Planet coming out soon

[Lisa]

Home Fires by Kamila Shamsie is 99p today. There have been quite a few good books in the daily deal lately, which hasn't helped my reading list shrink.

[Jason]

One of my favourite poets is giving away all of his kindle books for free until 1st July. Harry Whitewolf he has a very unique style of writing, I highly recommend reading them. Also in the giveaway are his 2 travel books.

Link here.

He also writes childrens books under the pseudonym of Mr. Wolf which are great fun and also free.
