A very odd book! I spent the first few chapters struggling with the fact it feels like you're in the middle of a series, which technically you are, but it's a radio show and not a book series. Then it's so twisty and oddly written that I kept turning pages with curiosity about what on earth was going to happen next! I did enjoy the book, got to the point I couldn't put it down, but it does feel oddly disjointed in places with some really weird elements thrown in. Definitely worth the read though.

A mixed bag with this one, I usually love the Harbinder Kaur series and was dead excited to read this one. It just fell a little short for me. Maybe because Harbinder was barely in it, which is a shame as she's a fantastic character! The ending also felt a little forced. I'll be giving it a 3 out of 5 so still worth a read.

I loved this book. So many twists and turns, dark and low points mixed with hope and light. Absolutely fantastic! Feels like Elin's path is clearer now and she's needed it. Don't miss this if you've already read the first two books! If you haven't read the first two, the first is The Sanitorium and it's another 5 star read!

Gifted this amazing advanced reading copy of Janice Hallet's on my birthday! Honestly, when it comes out this month, you need to rush and buy it. It gets the full five stars from me! 🔪💀😍 I don't know how reading emails and texts gets me so hooked! Maybe it's because I'm nosy 🤣 but I love it!

A book that makes you want to step inside it and live there! I'm packing my bags and moving to Caltrey! I need a flying cat as a pet, cinnamon buns for breakfast, copious amounts of raspberry jam and a sentient spider plant!

Did not finish book. Stopped at 3%.

Nothing wrong with it, just wasn't in the mood.
